2 Safety information
2.1 General safety note
The information and tools will not fulfill the safety requirements for your application
w
ithout further adjustments being made. The project planning provided by way of exam‐
ple is intended to serve as the basis to allow you to perform your own project planning
and programming in line with your specific requirements. What this means is that the
information and tools merely provide an example to demonstrate how a safety function
can be taken care of.
When it comes to your own project planning and programming, you will need to rely on
qualified staff given that it is your responsibility to ensure that the following require‐
ments are complied with at the very least:
b
Carrying out a risk assessment
b
Taking into account applicable standards
b
Verifying and validating the safety function
2.2 Intended use
The Safe Entry Exit safety system is used in hazardous areas with material transporta‐
t
ion via a conveyor (e.g., conveyor belt), e.g., a robot cell. Safe Entry Exit reduces the
risk of personal injury caused by passing through the machine’s material transporta‐
tion. Safe Entry Exit can be used both at the entry area as well as the exit area of the
material transportation.
Safe Entry Exit is suitable for applications with the following properties:
The material is moved by a conveyor into the hazardous area.
The conveyor moves at a defined speed (maximum of 4 different speeds) during
the transportation of the material.
The material is at least 500 mm long.
The length of the material is always identical or can be determined automatically
(e.g. via a combination of existing process signals).
2.3 Requirements for the qualification of personnel
The protective device must be configured, installed, connected, commissioned, and ser‐
v
iced by qualified safety personnel only.
Project planning
For project planning, a person is considered competent when he/she has expertise and
experience in the selection and use of protective devices on machines and is familiar
with the relevant technical rules and national work safety regulations.
Mechanical mounting, electrical installation, and commissioning
For the task, a person is considered qualified when he/she has the expertise and expe‐
rience in the relevant field and is sufficiently familiar with the application of the protec‐
tive device on the machine to be able to assess whether it is in an operationally safe
state.
Operation and maintenance
For operation and maintenance, a person is considered competent when he/she has
the expertise and experience in the relevant field and is sufficiently familiar with the
application of the protective device on the machine and has been instructed by the
machine operator in its operation.

2.4 Safe state
In the safe state, the accordingly configured safe switching outputs are in the OFF state.
T
he safe state is initiated in the following cases:
The muting function is not correctly terminated because the detected object is too
short or too long.
The muting function is not correctly initiated.
Deviation from preset timing detected.
Deviation from preset sequence detected.
When the muting function is active, the connection between the higher-level con‐
trol and the safety controller is interrupted.
When the muting function is inactive, the connection between the higher-level con‐
trol and the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device is interrupted.
When the muting function is inactive, the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device
detects an object.
The voltage supply of the higher-level control, the Type 4 electro-sensitive protec‐
tive device or the safety controller is interrupted.
Internal fault detected in the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device.
Internal fault detected in the safety controller or one of its components.
When the safety system initiates the safe state, the machine manufacturer and user

3 Product description
3.1 Product identification
The part number of the safety system is located on the packaging.
Further topics
"Or
dering information", page 45
3.2 Application description
The Safe Entry Exit safety system is used on machines in which it is not possible to
ent
er the hazardous area as long as the machine is in a dangerous state. Appropriate
protective devices (e.g., fixed guards) prevent access to the hazardous area. The haz‐
ardous area can only be accessed via an opening that enables the material to pass
through via the conveyor.
Safe Entry Exit is used to monitor the opening provided for material transport and to
place the machine in the safe state if anything other than the expected material passes
through the opening. To accomplish this, the safety system monitors the time it takes
for the expected material to pass through the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device,
but not the height of the material, see "Construction and function", page 14.
3.3 Components of the safety system
Safe Entry Exit components (hardware and software)

NOTE
All nece
ssary components influence the parameters of the entire application that relate
to safety technology. The components must therefore have a MTTF
d
value that is suit‐
able for the entire application and satisfies the necessary performance level. The nec‐
essary performance level results from the risk assessment. For evaluating the perfor‐
mance level achieved, subsystems for SISTEMA are available under:
www.sick.com
3.4.1 Requirements for hold to run device
The pushbutton must be installed outside of the hazardous area. From the position of
t
he pushbutton, there must be a complete view of the hazardous area. It must not be
possible for a person to enter the hazardous area while activating the pushbutton.
The pushbutton must be designed according to the following standard:
EN 60204
NOTICE
T
he pushbutton should only be operable by authorized personnel. An example of a mea‐
sure to prevent unauthorized use is a key-operated spring-back pushbutton.
The hold to run device is supplied via test output X2 of the XTIO module, which it is con‐
nec
ted to. Test output X2 of this module must not be used for other devices.
3.4.2 Reset pushbutton requirements
Reset pushbutton requirements
T
he pushbutton must be installed outside of the hazardous area. From the position of
the pushbutton, there must be a complete view of the hazardous area. Activating the
pushbutton must not initiate any movement of the machine.
The reset pushbutton must be designed in accordance with the following standard:
EN 60204
Complementary information
T
he reset pushbutton resets the muting function of the safety system. If the reset push‐
button is also to be used to reset the machine, the risk assessment must show that
there is no possibility of this causing a hazard.
3.4.3 Requirements for Flexi Soft safety controller
The Flexi Soft safety controller must be installed in a control cabinet with an enclosure
r
ating of IP 54.
Please note the following for installation:
Continuous equipotential bonding via conductive connections between machine
parts and systems
Physically separate supply unit (voltage supply/actuator systems/inverter)
Do not use the shielding to conduct equipotential bonding current
Keep the shielding short and use the full surface
Use every existing or available functional earth (FE)
Carefully connect all available communications cables. Twisted lines are often nec‐
essary for fault-free data transmission (fieldbus).
The voltage supply for the main module and each expansion module for input and out‐
put mus
t be limited to a maximum of 4 A, either by the power supply unit or by a fuse.

3.4.4 Requirements for the higher-level control
The signals of the higher-level control are part of the initiation of the muting function.
T
he higher-level control can be a standard programmable logic controller that controls
the machine process or an existing safety controller.
The control requires information about the position and speed of the material on the
conveyor. If material with different sizes is transported, the size of the current material
must also be available.
This information must be processed such that the programmable logic controller can
change the status of the signals according to the sequence. Moreover, this information
must also originate from a source that is difficult to manipulate.
Recommended sources are, for example:
Code reader
Process information
...
The entire chain of signal generation must exhibit at least a MTTF
d
value of three years.
According to EN ISO 13849-1, a MTTF
d
value of ten years must be assumed for the indi‐
vidual components of the chain if no manufacturer information is available and simple
determination according to appendix C and D is not possible.
Examples:
Example 1: In a chain of three non-safe components with an assumed MTTF
d
value of
10 years, this results in a total MTTF
d
value of 3.3 years. Such a chain is permitted.
Example 2: In a chain of four non-safe components with an assumed MTTF
d
value of
10 years, this results in a total MTTF
d
value of 2.5 years. Such a chain is not permitted.
If PL e is required, the higher-level control and signal source must also correspond to
PL e and have a MTTF
d
value of at least 100 a.
Measures must be taken with regard to the voltage supply for the higher-level control so
as to prevent voltage drops, voltage fluctuations, as well as overcurrent and undercur‐
rent.
The wiring of the signals SR (Muting Request) and TE (Time Extension) influences the
safety application and must be validated at the time of commissioning.
3.4.5 Requirements for the electro-sensitive protective device
The Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device must meet the requirements of EN ISO
61496-1 and ha
ve an MTTF
d
value of at least 100 a. The positioning must be carried
out in accordance with EN ISO 13855.
If the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device has additional functions that affect the
direct relationship between the status of the output signal switching devices and the
interruption of the protective field by the material being conveyed, these must be deac‐
tivated.
Such functions are, for example, integrated reset functions.
This does not apply to functions – for example a blanking function – that ignore contin‐
uously interrupted signal pathways.
The following must also be taken into account:
The penetration distance required to calculate the minimum distance depends on
the resolution of the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device.
The approach speed of the material depends on the speed of the conveyor.
If it is possible to step onto the conveyor, the speed at which a person is moving
must be considered in the calculation.

NOTE
T
his safety system only covers the positioning of a Type 4 electro-sensitive protective
device for monitoring an opening for material transport. The positioning of other equip‐
ment, such as safety fences, is not covered.
3.5 Construction and function
Functionality
T
he Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device monitors the material opening. When a
light beam is unexpectedly interrupted, the safety controller outputs a dual-channel sig‐
nal to place the machine in the safe state.
When material on the conveyor approaches the opening, the material is identified (e.g.
via a combination of existing process signals) or is known to the higher-level control
because of process information. Based on the type of material and speed of the con‐
veyor, an exact time window is determined during which the material will pass through
the opening and therefore also pass by the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device.
The higher-level control sends the safety controller a signal to request the muting func‐
tion. When the muting function is active, an interruption of the Type 4 electro-sensitive
protective device does not cause the machine to stop. While the material is passing
through the opening, the safety controller continues to monitor the signals from the
Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device. If the actual duration of the interruption dif‐
fers from the expected duration, the machine is placed in the safe state.
Error-free ending of the muting function is performed by the Type 4 electro-sensitive
protective device being released along with the respective signal change of the higher-
level control.
Complementary information
W
hen the muting function is requested, the safety controller expects an interruption of
the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device. This interruption must take place within
the initialization time window, otherwise this is seen as an error and the muting func‐
tion is not started (see "Conveyor speed", page 19 ).
3.6 Limits of the safety system
The safety system ends at all inputs and outputs that are not used to wire the compo‐
nent
s of the safety system.
For detailed information about the interfaces see "Electrical installation", page 23.

3.7 Functions
The Safe Entry Exit safety system offers the following functions:
Mut
ing function
°
The safety controller monitors the signal change from requesting the muting
function and from the output signal switching devices of the Type 4 electro-
sensitive protective device and if necessary, switches to the safe state, see
"Muting function", page 40.
Time Extension Function
°
After a correct initiation sequence of the muting function, the maximum dura‐
tion of the muting function can be extended, see "Time Extension Function",
page 41.
Hold to run device
°
When the safety system has switched to the safe state, the hold to run device
is used to place the conveyor in motion while the material is blocking the pro‐
tective field of the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device. see "Hold to run
device", page 42.
1 of n timing sets
°
This function makes it possible to select different transport speeds and mate‐
rial lengths, see "1 of n timing sets", page 43.

azard due to lack of effectiveness of the protective device
In the case of non-compliance, it is possible that the dangerous state of the machine
may not be stopped or not stopped in a timely manner.
b
Use of the safety system requires a risk assessment. Check whether additional
protective measures are required.
b
Comply with the applicable national regulations derived from the application (e.g.,
work safety regulations, safety rules, or other relevant safety guidelines).
The safety system was developed under consideration of typical application cases. A
par
tial safety function can be implemented with the safety system in these application
cases. The manufacturer must check whether the safety system is suitable for its spe‐
cific application case (risk assessment).
If the thorough check shows that the safety system is not suitable for the specific appli‐
cation case, the safety system can be used as a basis for an individualized develop‐
ment suitable for the specific application case. This case will not be considered further
in this document.
In any event, additional work is necessary for the safety system to be used, e.g. subse‐
quent configuration of the safety controller.
The manufacturer has the following duties:
b
Executing a risk assessment.
b
Verifying and validating the safety functions.
b
Integrating the individual components in accordance with the appropriate stan‐
dards.
b
Please note that C standards have priority compared to statements about this
safety system.
4.1.1 Calculation of the performance level
Complete subsystems for SISTEMA available on the internet for this safety system can
be used t
o calculate the achieved performance level.
Three subsystems are available:
Safe Entry Exit with a standard control as a higher-level control (requirements see
"Requirements for the higher-level control", page 13)
Safe Entry Exit with a safety controller as a higher-level control (requirements see
"Requirements for the higher-level control", page 13)

the values for the subsystems. Accordingly, the subsystems are only valid if the selected
components of the safety system meet all requirements, see "Components required",
page 11.
During the development of the safety system, certain measures against common-cause
f
aults were implemented or defined. Some of these measures must be taken into
account during implementation, see "General requirements", page 23.

azard due to lack of effectiveness of the protective device
In the case of non-compliance, it is possible that the dangerous state of the machine
may not be stopped or not stopped in a timely manner.
b
Changes to the electrical integration of the safety system in the machine control
and changes to the mechanical mounting of the safety system necessitate a new
risk assessment. The results of this risk assessment may require the entity operat‐
ing the machine to meet the obligations of a manufacturer.
b
Changes to the safety system’s configuration may impair the protective function.
The effectiveness of the safety system must be checked after any change to the
configuration. The person carrying out the change is also responsible for maintain‐
ing the protective function of the safety system.
4.3 Safety Functions
4.3.1 Identifying hazards
This document exclusively considers the monitoring of material transport in or out of
ha
zardous areas and the associated risks.
Other residual risks, e.g., due to small parts being thrown about, are not considered
and must be considered in detail in the risk analysis, see "Manufacturer of the
machine", page 16.
4.3.2 Enabling material throughput
To move materials into or out of hazardous areas, specific features of the conveyed
ma
terials are used for material detection or to automatically differentiate between
material and people. The protective device is then not actuated during material trans‐
port; however, people are still detected.
4.4 Design
This chapter contains information about implementing the design of the safety system.
An
y design-related contents of the relevant operating instructions also apply.
4.4.1 Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device
b
P
osition Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device according to EN ISO 13855.
b
If possible, mount the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device such that the pal‐
let for transporting the material on the conveyor does not trigger the Type 4 elec‐
tro-sensitive protective device.
The Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device should only be triggered by the
ma
terial on the pallet. The lowest beam of the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective
device should run just above the surface of the pallet. If this is not practical, the
Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device can also be aligned to the pallet. In this
case, the possibility of persons being situated in an empty pallet must be consid‐
ered in the risk assessment and, if applicable, measures must be taken to prevent
climbing onto an empty pallet. The height of the lowest beam of the Type 4 electro-
sensitive protective device must be chosen such that it is not possible for persons
to end up in the hazardous area by passing underneath the beam.
b
Mount t
he Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device such that persons cannot
enter the hazardous area by moving past the material.

The distance to the opening should be a maximum of 200 mm on each side,
unle
ss otherwise determined in the risk assessment.
If needed the operating entity of the machine must take additional security mea‐
sures, such as mounting electronically monitored swinging flaps.
The type 4 electro-sensitive protective device must only be mounted with the original
accessories of the manufacturer and connected according to the instructions of the
manufacturer. For more notes, see the operating instructions for the Type 4 electro-sen‐
sitive protective device.
4.4.2 Minimum distance between the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device and the hazardous point
Calculation of minimum distance
T
he minimum distance between the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device and the
hazardous point is calculated in accordance with EN ISO 13855 as follows:
S = K × T + C + Z
S= K × T + C +700 mm
Formula symbols Description
S Minimum distance
K Approach speed
T Overall system stopping time
C Penetration distance
Z Application-specific supplement
T
he application-specific supplement is 700 mm. This supplement
is made up of 500 mm for differentiating between people and
materials and 200 mm of monitored conveying distance that is
usually the result of the delay time T
Clearance
. If a conveying dis‐
tance other than 200 mm is configured, the application-specific
supplement must be adapted accordingly.
The risk assessment must determine to what degree people can misuse a process sig‐
nal int
ended for transport goods in order to activate the muting function themselves (by
interrupting the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device). This possibility must be
taken into account in particular with transport goods which can be taken off the con‐
veyor by hand.
A person who activates the muting function will be detected at the latest because the
muting period is too short. However, the person is already in the hazardous area at this
point.
The application-specific supplement Z is not needed if the risk assessment concludes
that it is not possible for people to be on the conveyor or AGV/AGC.
4.4.3 Design of the material opening
The material transportation opening should be designed so as to provide free space of
ma
ximum 200 mm next to the material when the material is passing through. If the risk
assessment concludes that even with a larger free space it is still impossible for per‐
sons to end up in the hazardous area by passing next to the material, the free space
can be adjusted accordingly.
If the free space next to the material is larger than 200 mm, it should be at least
500 mm to prevent the crushing of persons between the material and the Type 4 elec‐
tro-sensitive protective device or other machine parts. In this case, additional protective
measures must be taken, e.g., installation of electrically monitored swing doors.

It must be clarified during the risk assessment whether it is possible for persons to be
on t
op of the material being transported. If this is the case, suitable measures must be
taken, such as preventing the possibility of climbing onto the transported material or
monitoring the maximum transport material height.

200 mm maximum
4.4.4 Conveyor speed
The speed at which the material is transported on the conveyor must be calculated in
t
he previously determined sequence.
If different conveyor speeds are used, up to four different timing sets can be set in the
safety controller. The currently valid timing set must be selected via signals from the
higher-level control, see "1 of n timing sets", page 43.
The maximum possible speed of the conveyor depends on the drive as well as the mea‐
surement accuracy of the muting function request. The muting function request must
be sent when the material is a maximum of 200 mm from the Type 4 electro-sensitive
protective device. If the risk assessment concludes that persons in front of the material
definitely need more than 200 mm, the distance can be adjusted accordingly.
4.4.5 Calculating response times and stopping times

4.5 Integrating the equipment into the electrical control
NOTE
Se
veral safety functions are generally necessary in order to ensure a safe design for the
entire application. This requires additional components that are not part of the safety
system, such as switches, fuses, and contactors. The circuit diagrams contain informa‐
tion on wiring the safety system with additional components within an application.

Independent Control Sys‐
tem
The signals of the higher-level control are part of the initiation of
the muting function. The combination of process sensor and con‐
trol unit is an example. The higher-level control is not part of the
safety system.
Process Sensor The process sensor forwards information about transported mate‐
rials to the control unit. It must not be easy to manipulate this
information, e.g., by modifying it.
Control unit The control unit is a functional unit of the process that controls the
command pr
ocessing sequence. It can be a standard programma‐
ble logic controller, for example.
OSSD Safety output of the Type 4 electro-sensitive protective device con‐
nected in pairs and subject to dual-channel evaluation.
Signal MR - Muting request This signal requests the muting function.
Signal TE - Time extension This signal is used to request the time extension function.
Safety Controller The safety controller monitors the signal change and switches
ac
cordingly.
