A Diagnostics Dream with Sick Safety Assistant App!

Sick deTec4 Series Safety Light Curtains are some of the most advanced units available in the UK, boasting a range of innovative features and time-saving benefits to make your life easier. The latest of these innovations is the integration of Near Field Communication (NFC) into the receivers, so you can now use your smartphone with the Sick App to read all the diagnostics data without a cable, software or laptop!

The new generation of Sick deTec safety light curtains is ideal for the protection of hazardous areas, entrances, and hazardous points. Intelligent and state-of-the-art technologies such as NFC and IO-Link offer new possibilities for faster installation, comprehensive diagnosis and performing automation functions.

The standardised connectivity and the compatible accessories for the entire Sick deTec product family reduce variant diversity. The required functions can be activated using the appropriate M12 system plug – without the need for software. With IP65, IP67, and IP69K enclosure ratings available, plus variants for explosion-hazardous areas, solutions can be found for a whole host of different applications in harsh environments.

What Data Does the Sick Safety Assitant App Show?

  • Device-specific details of the protective device (name, serial number, type code)
  • Configuration information (whether restart interlock is activated or a reduced resolution is used)
  • Current status of the protective device (status of the OSSDs, muting status, alignment quality)
  • Error diagnostics with the error code, error description, diagnostic LED and error correction
     

Your Benefits

  • Increased productivity and short downtimes due to innovative diagnostic options
  • Safety and automation combined: IO-Link makes cost-effective system design possible
  • Muting provides maximum productivity and safety in differentiating between people and material
  • High availability: smart presence detection prevents unwanted switch-offs
  • Easy commissioning and configuration without the need for software, saving time and money

Safe and Intelligent

With NFC technology, you have entirely new options for on-site diagnosis using your smartphone. IO-Link makes it possible to read out diagnostic data regardless of your location. The data can then be used for subsequent process steps; for example, taking height measurements and using a safety function at the same time. Easy configuration without software, also saves time and money.

The NFC technology supports fast device configuration & diagnostics

IO-Link makes a complete, cost-effective system design possible

Thanks to data the DeTec4 is a future-proof investment

Safety Guaranteed on All Levels

With Sick deTec4 safety light curtains, your safety solution is ready to use quickly. Thanks to the uniform housing design, standardised connectivity, and compatible accessories for the entire deTec product family, implementation into the machine design is always the same. Sophisticated modularity, allows the necessary functions of the Sick deTec4 to be activated using the matching system plug. An improved alignment display directly on the safety light curtain saves time, making additional software unnecessary.

Safest Under High Pressure when Using IP69K

Hygienic packaging and cleaning processes as well as a safe machine design are so important in the food industry. Sick deTec IP69K safety light curtains has made protecting hazardous points and access points easier than ever.

Ready for Explosive Atmospheres

In industries with explosion-hazardous areas, a single spark can be disastrous. The protective devices used in these environments must therefore be particularly rugged and reliable in order to meet the strict explosion protection requirements.
