SICK Visionary-T CX/AG Quickstart

Brand: SICK

Model: Visionary-T CX/AG

Type: Quickstart

SICK Visionary-T CX/AG is a 3D camera that provides real-time 3D data at up to 50 frames per second. It is intended solely for outputting 3D image data via a Gigabit Ethernet interface and meets industrial requirements for data security and reliability. The Visionary-T CX/AG is easy to mount and commission and can be used in any indoor space. It is also convenient for API connection for use of 3D camera in specialist applications. The AG variant extends the functionality of the CX variant with serial preprocessing of the data (e.g., data reduction).

b Visionary-T CX/AG does not constitute personal protection

equipment in accordance with the respective applicable

safety standards for machines.

bThemounting,electricalinstallationandcongurationofthe

devicemustonlybecarriedoutbyprofessionallyqualied

personnel.

b When mounting and electrical installation work is being car-

ried out, always comply with standard operating procedures,

and applicable health and environmental regulations.

b The sensor must not be used in outdoor or explosion-hazard-

ous areas!

b When installing the device, always consider the electrical

connected loads.

b Replace faulty or damaged cables and male connectors

immediately.

b Replace damaged or faulty components immediately and in

consultation with SICK AG.

b When mounting the device, it is imperative that you use

suitable mounting equipment and that you consider their

specictighteningtorques.Themountingequipmentmust

be self-locking or secured appropriately.

b Ensure a constant voltage supply to the device within the set

parameters.

b Operate the 3D camera only within the set operating

parameters.

b Regularly check that the 3D camera is functioning properly.

b The infrared beams used pose no danger to the human

eye if the 3D sensor is operated within the prescribed

parameters(opticalriskclassication0,EN62471).

bStructuralmodicationstothe3Dcameraarestrictly

forbidden!

b During mounting, ensure there are no attachment parts in

the detection volume of the 3D sensor.

b The 3D camera must not be mounted behind a transparent

Commissioning and maintenance

The 3D camera contains no inner parts that the user needs

to have serviced.

b Check the screw connections and terminals regularly.

b Clean the housing using a soft cloth. Either use a dry

cloth, or dampen it with lukewarm water and a small

amount of mild cleaning agent.

b Clean the area between the cooling ribs regularly.
