The Pharo safety laser scanner is an electrosensitive device designed for the protection of personnel against the risk of accidents caused by industrial machines and plants.

New from Reer, the Pharo safety laser scanner is an electrosensitive device designed for the protection of personnel against the risk of accidents caused by industrial machines and plants with potentially dangerous moving parts, and against possible collisions with automatic guided vehicles (AGVs).

Using the Pharo, precise programmable horizontal protected areas of variable shape can be created (semicircular, rectangle or segmented), suitable for all applications with no need of a separate reflective or receiving element.

It is also possible to mount the laser scanner vertically for the protection of an access to a dangerous area.

Hands, arms or whole body can be detected depending on the chosen resolution.
