Leuze Presents the Smallest Safety Laser Scanner on the Market

The ultra-compact laser scanner safeguards machines, automated guided vehicles and robots

With the RSL 200, Leuze is launching the smallest safety laser scanner on the market. The powerful device reliably safeguards machines, systems, automated guided vehicles and autonomous mobile robots. Thanks to its small dimensions the RSL 200 safety laser scanner is very easy to integrate, even where space is limited. The RSL 200 offers an operating range of three meters and a 275-degree scanning angle.

Flexible stationary use

With its configurable protective fields, the RSL 200 is ideal for area guarding and for applications with protective field switchover. In this way, the safety laser scanner detects anyone entering or staying in a machine or system’s monitored area. Thanks to its large scanning angle, it also safeguards two sides of a machine around a corner with just one device. In addition to the compact design, the laser scanner’s rotating M12 connection also helps make integration easier, as this standardized connection allows extremely flexible cable routing. This also reduces the space required and makes commissioning easier.

Space-saving solution for mobile use

The RSL 200’s minimal dimensions also make it the right choice for automated guided vehicles and autonomous mobile robots. The configurable and switchable protective and warning fields of the RSL 200 enable flexible protection. They allow the monitored areas to be optimally adapted to curved paths, different speeds and various load conditions. Omnidirectional vehicles can be safeguarded in all directions with the laser scanner: Only two diagonally mounted devices are required thanks to the 275-degree scanning angle. 32 switchable sets of protective and warning fields enable its speed and direction of travel to be continuously adjusted. The RSL 200 is also insensitive to shocks and vibrations.

Quick to commission and replace

The mounting bracket was specially developed for the RSL 200 to help speed up integration and commissioning. It allows the safety laser scanner to be easily aligned horizontally and vertically.

If servicing is required, the laser scanner can be replaced quickly and easily with just four screws – no realignment is required. The RSL 200 also contains a removable configuration memory, making it easy to transfer the configuration to the new device.

App for convenient remote access

System operators can use the RSL 200 app to access status information and diagnostic data. All important information can be captured remotely via Bluetooth, and messages are displayed in the app. This is particularly helpful if the RSL 200 is installed in system areas that are difficult to see or if access to the device is restricted. Users can also send these directly to Leuze Service if required. Other interfaces such as USB and additionally Ethernet TCP / IP (for device variants RSL 230 and higher) offer additional configuration and diagnostics options.
