Sick S30A-4011BA Safety Scanner

The Sick S30A-4011BA Laser Safety Scanner, part of the Sick S3000 Standard Laser Scanner family, is designed to deliver reliable protection in automated environments. Manufactured by Sick, a global leader in safety and sensor technology, this advanced Laser Safety Scanner ensures dependable operator and machine safety in industrial applications.

The S30A-4011BA combines strong performance with proven compliance to international standards. It offers a protective field range of 4 m and an extended warning field up to 49 m, supported by a 190° scanning angle for wide coverage. Its 0.5° or 0.25° angular resolution and configurable resolutions (30 mm to 150 mm) allow precise detection across multiple layouts. With a fast 60 ms response time, it reacts instantly to hazards, helping minimize downtime and prevent accidents. Certified to Type 3 (IEC 61496), SIL 2, Category 3, and PL d, the scanner ensures reliable safety performance with a mission time of 20 years. Operating on a stable 24 V DC supply and consuming ≤2.3 A, the device balances efficiency with reliability. Its IP65-rated aluminum die-cast housing, polycarbonate optics with scratch-resistant coating, and compact size (155 × 185 × 160 mm, 3.3 kg) make the S30A-4011BA durable and practical for long-term use in industrial facilities.

In real-world applications, the Sick S30A-4011BA Laser Safety Scanner is widely deployed in conveyor systems, robotic cells, and automated guided vehicles (AGVs). For AGVs, its 4 m protective field provides accurate detection to ensure safe navigation in busy warehouse environments. On robotic assembly lines, it creates protective zones that stop operations instantly if a worker enters the danger area, preventing accidents. In conveyor setups, it balances safety with productivity by allowing warning fields to monitor operator movement while keeping the system running. Maintenance engineers value its robust design and ease of configuration, while engineering students and trainees can study the S30A-4011BA as a practical example of how laser-based safety technology integrates into automation. These use cases show why the model is trusted for both compliance and long-term reliability in modern industry.

For engineers and procurement managers exploring the Sick S30A-4011BA, several resources support evaluation and integration. The official S30A-4011BA datasheet provides complete specifications, while the S30A-4011BA manual includes installation and diagnostic guidance. Buyers can also confirm the latest S30A-4011BA price from authorized distributors to align with project budgets. These resources make the Sick S3000 Standard Laser Scanner easier to assess, adopt, and trust in safety-critical automation environments.
