Banner USDINT-2T2

The Banner MICRO-SCREEN System is a microprocessor-controlled opposed-mode opto- electronic "curtain of light" (or "light screen"). It is designed for use as a point-of-operation guarding device, and is especially suited to smaller production machinery.

Banner’s microprocessor-based circuit raises the level of control reliability in machine guard design. The MICRO-SCREEN System design incorporates "diverse redundancy," in which two microprocessors of different design, running from two different instruction sets, constantly check all system components, including each other.

Banner MICRO-SCREEN Systems are extensively FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis) tested to establish an extremely high degree of confidence that no system component will ever, even if it does ail, cause a failure to danger.
