Professional FAQ

• Q: Does this scanner come with a system plug?
• A: No. The S30B-3011CA does not include a system plug. You must buy it separately.
• Q: What is the difference between protective field and warning field?
• A: Protective field stops the machine when breached. Warning field gives an alert but does not stop.
• Q: Can I use this scanner outdoors?
• A: No. This is an indoor model. Direct sunlight may cause false trips.
• Practical tip from engineers:
• Always mount the scanner with the yellow housing facing the danger zone. The black back is for mounting brackets.
• Selection guide for buyers:
• Choose S30B-3011CA for 3m protective field with one OSSD pair and RS-232 configuration.
• Need a longer protective field? Look for S30B-4011CA (4m) or S30B-6011CA (6m).
• Need two OSSD pairs? Select a different S300 model (e.g., S30B-3011DB).
• Need Ethernet configuration? Upgrade to S3000 series or microScan3.
• Remember to order a system plug (M12, 5-pin) with or without cable.
• For EFI communication with other SICK devices, ensure your cable is ≤50 meters long with 0.22 mm² conductor.
