Safety functions

Access protection

First safety function: a 3D, configurable virtual barrier with two different detection fields, providing a secure signal to control machinery.

Restart prevention

Second safety function: safe presence sensing to prevent machinery from starting as long as operators are in dangerous areas.

3d scanning

Radar functions natively in 3D, and can therefore protect dangerous areas volumetrically. Operators cannot elude detection by radar no matter how hard they try!

SIL2/PLD certificates

S101A sensors are the first (and the only one to date) radar sensors in the world that have obtained SIL2 certification for use in industrial safety applications.

Robust to environmental disturbances

A radar sensor is extremely resistant to environmental disturbances. This makes it possible to work without false alarms in environments where there is smoke, dust, water and machining swarf.

High-sensitivity detection

When a sensor detects an operator entering a dangerous area, it starts to function in high-sensitivity mode, which also detects operator micro-movements from breathing and prevents accidental machine restart.
