This Basic model of the type 4 safety light curtains provides the most important functions. Range reduction on the transmitter, reversible transmission channels, a LED display as well as an automatic start/restart interlock round out the range of service. The type 4 Basic model is suitable for a range of applications and is optionally available with AS-i interface or protection class IP 67/69K.

Advantages:
Automatic start/restart
Optimal handling
Prevention of mutual interference of the sensors by selectable transmission channels and range reduction, if applicable
Universal application due to standard functions
Short delivery times and global availability

SG2 Type 2 Extended offers Finger and Hand resolution safety detection with integrated selectable EDM function and automatic or manual restart mode.

Our Bulletin 450L GuardShield™ POC safety light curtains are unlike traditional safety light curtains, which are based on separate transmitter and receiver units. Patented technology allows each transceiver to be used as a transmitter or receiver via an innovative plug-in module. The 450L-B is the basic model with on/off functionality. The advanced 450L-E model features integrated laser alignment, cascading, and integrated muting.

Connection over EtherNet/IP makes the 450L-E light curtain a smart safety device that enhances safety while providing connectivity through The Connected Enterprise®
Includes patented technology that allows each transceiver to be used either as a transmitter or receiver via an innovative plug-in module
Features an active protective field that senses over the entire length of a transceiver
Offers a wide range of protection heights 150…1950 mm (5.9…76.7 in.) in increments of 150 mm (0.5 ft)
Features a compact housing design 30 x 30 mm (1.18 x 1.18 in.)
Provides easy configuration of the start mode, external device monitoring (EDM), and scanning range by DIP switches on the plug-in modules
Provides basic on/off functionality (450L-B only)
Bulletin 450L-E Safety Light Curtains

The transmitter generates infra-red light beams flashing at high speed in synchronous action. The parallel light beams with a spacing of 7,5mm or 14,3mm are monitored by miocro-controllers. The receiver evaluated the arriving beams in synchronous action to the transmitter.

Due to the closeness of the beams, a resolution of 14 mm / 30 mm is achieved. If an obstacle is placed into the protective field, i.e. at least iner lieght beam is interrupted, the hazardous movement of the machine is stopped, i.e. a new start is not possible.
