SICK S30B-2011DA S300 Professional Safety Laser Scanner
Description
S30B-2011DA is a SICK S300 safety laser scanner (part no. 1026822), version S300 Professional. It guards an area by scanning a pulsed laser through 270°, with a protective field range of 2 m and 24 fields in 8 field sets. Safety data as printed: SIL 2 (IEC 61508), PL d (EN ISO 13849). SICK currently lists this type as “to be phased out”; the catalogue names no successor, so confirm availability and any replacement with us before you plan a repair around it.
What the S30B-2011DA protects and how it is configured
This is the Professional version supplied as a sensor without system plug (model: sensor without system plug). The system plug carries the connections and the configuration memory, so check whether you also need the system plug and cable for your installation; they are separate parts.
Warning field range 8 m (at 15 % reflectivity), distance measuring range 30 m, response time 80 ms, configurable resolution 30 mm, 40 mm, 50 mm, 70 mm, and 32 monitoring cases can be switched. Configuration is by PC with SICK’s CDS software; the data sheet lists the interface and the transmission rates. Measured data output: via RS-422.

Type code S30B-2011DA and part number 1026822
In SICK’s catalogue the codes S30B and S32B belong to the S300 and the S300 Mini respectively, and the remaining digits and letters describe the variant. The part number 1026822 is the safe way to identify this device; an S300 Professional and an S300 Mini Remote share a style of housing but differ in range, field sets and permitted use. Replacement and system-plug choices should always be checked against your existing configuration file.
Selection, configuration and validation notes
Supply 24 V DC (16.8 V DC … 30 V DC); enclosure rating IP65 (EN 60529); ambient operating range –10 °C … +50 °C; dimensions 102 mm x 152 mm x 106 mm; weight 1.2 kg; laser class 1 (21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11, IEC 60825-1). A safety laser scanner is only one element of a safeguarding concept: stopping distance, protective field supplement and mounting height must be verified for the machine or vehicle, and the configuration should be validated after any replacement.
Documents and quotation
For S30B-2011DA the manufacturer’s data sheet (part no. 1026822) is attached as a PDF copy; read it together with your control drawing before you commit to the order. A quotation needs only the part number, the quantity and the delivery destination; the RFQ form takes all three. Related items are listed under Safety Switches & Guard Locking. We suggest a last check of the output type, plug and ratings against your site documents before the order is placed; the data sheet governs.

About brand
SICK is the German maker of industrial sensors: photoelectric and proximity sensors, safety laser scanners and light curtains, encoders, distance sensors, code readers and gas analysers. Erwin Sick, an optics engineer, founded it in Munich in 1946, and in 1952 it introduced its first marketable accident-prevention light curtain, which protected press operators by stopping the machine when a hand broke the light beam. The company moved to Waldkirch in the Black Forest in 1956 and is still headquartered there. It is a privately held company, and has been an Aktiengesellschaft (AG) since 1996.

Choosing a SICK sensor
For object detection, the sensing principle comes first. A retro-reflective sensor (WL series) sends light to a reflector and switches when an object breaks the beam; it is reliable over long distances and easy to align. A sensor with background suppression (WTB series) detects an object at a set distance and ignores what is behind it, which suits conveyors with shiny or dark backgrounds. A through-beam pair (WS/WE) gives the longest range and the highest reliability in dust. For transparent bottles and film, use a model built for transparent objects (for example WL12G-3B or WL150-P420). The digits in the code also matter: "P" usually means a PNP output and "N" NPN, and the last digits set the connector or cable. For machine guarding, a safety laser scanner such as nanoScan3 or microScan3 protects an area, while a safety controller such as Flexi Soft combines several safety devices.
Where SICK products are used
In Oman and the GCC, SICK sensors are used in packaging and bottling lines, food and beverage plants, logistics and airport baggage handling, cement and steel plants, ports and cranes, automated warehouses, and on machines built by European OEMs. SICK safety scanners guard robots and automated guided vehicles, and its encoders give position feedback on motors, hoists and conveyors.

Ordering SICK products: what we need
Send the type code and the 7-digit SICK part number from the label (for example WTB12-3P2431 together with its part number). For a replacement sensor, add the output (PNP or NPN), connection (M8, M12 or cable) and sensing distance. For encoders, add the interface (incremental, SSI, PROFIBUS, PROFINET), resolution and shaft type. For safety scanners, tell us the model and whether the existing configuration needs to be kept.
