SICK NANS3-AAAZ30AN1 Safety Laser Scanner, 275° Beam Angle, 8 Field Pair, Type 3, SIL2, IP65, Sensing Range: 40m

The SICK NANS3-AAAZ30AN1 is certified as a Type 3 safety device and complies with Safety Integrity Level 2 (SIL2) according to IEC 61508 and IEC 62061 standards. This certification validates its design for use in safety-critical applications where reliable detection of personnel and obstacles is required to prevent hazardous machine motion.

Configuration is performed via the integrated micro-USB port using SICK's proprietary software (e.g., SIM1000 or similar). The software allows you to define up to 8 separate field pairs, set their boundaries within the 40m range, adjust detection resolution, and assign different warning or stop functions to each zone for integration with your safety PLC or controller.

The sensing range refers to the maximum distance (up to 40m) at which the scanner can detect objects. The protective field range is a configurable subset, typically starting from 3 meters, within which a detected object will trigger the safety output. You define the exact boundaries of the protective field(s) in the configuration software to suit your specific application layout.

With its IP65 rating, the scanner is protected against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets from any direction, making it suitable for use in damp, dusty industrial environments. However, it is not submersible or rated for prolonged direct rainfall or high-pressure washing, and its operating temperature is limited to -10°C to 50°C.
