This type 2 Basic model 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.

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

30 mm Resolution Type 2 Safety Light Curtains

Compact optical safeguarding solution is designed for lower-risk applications where risk of injury is limited but some guarding is necessary.

Designed for lower-risk applications such as bump or bruise, knock-down, trapping but not crushing, or minor cuts and abrasions
Features simple, two-piece integrated system with no control box
Detects narrow objects, such as a hand or ankle
Offered with 30 mm resolution and 15 m range
Provides economical, compact optical safeguarding
Meets Type 2 requirements per IEC61496-1/-2 and Category 2 per EN954-1
Available in trip (auto reset) or latch (manual reset) models

The Standard version of these type 4 safety light curtains features a start/restart interlock (RES) and contactor monitoring (EDM) for increased performance – and it is simple to handle and integrate into your systems. Reaching under and stepping behind protection as well as rear zone guarding can be efficiently implemented with the cascadable model.

Advantages:
Basic functions such as automatic start/restart, start/restart interlock (RES), contactor monitoring (EDM)
Optimal handling due to function selection without PC as well as LED and 7-segment display with integrated 3-zone alignment aid
Prevention of mutual interference of the sensors by selectable transmission channels and range reduction, if applicable
Models for cascading up to three devices facilitate easy implementation of reaching under and stepping behind protection as well as rear zone guarding
Short delivery times and global availability

The MLC 520 EX2 series is certified for use in potentially explosive areas of group II, category 3, zone 2 (gas) and zone 22 (dust). The function range of these type 4 safety light curtains corresponds to the MLC 520 standard version and thus also offers a start/restart interlock (RES) and contactor monitoring (EDM) for increased performance – with very simple handling and integration.

Advantages:
Basic functions such as automatic start/restart, start/restart interlock (RES), contactor monitoring (EDM)
Optimal handling due to function selection without PC as well as LED and 7-segment display with integrated 3-zone alignment aid
Prevention of mutual interference of the sensors by selectable transmission channels and range reduction, if applicable
Short delivery times and global availability

Approved for use in potentially explosive areas of group II, category 3, zone 2 (gas) and zone 22 (dust)

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

Offers enhanced features including integrated laser alignment, longer operating range and options for cascading, blanking and integrated muting
Features integrated laser alignment for fast and reliable installation
Offers built-in cascading and integrated muting capabilities

Typical applications for the Bulletin 450L-B Safety Light Curtains include:

Electronic fences
Forming operations
Robot cells
Presses
Workstations

Safety light curtains with integrated Muting functions. The Janus series is the solution for the protection of a vast number of high-risk industrial applications, in particular those requiring a high level of integration of the safety functions. For example, in the models with built-in Muting function, Janus guarantees the independence of the light curtain from the control circuits of the system (often distant from the protected gate) and, where necessary, also the integration of the Muting sensors. Settings of each function integrally performed via themain connector.

The safety light curtains ULVT consist of the two components: transmitter and receiver. The distance between both components and the overall height result in those protection width and - height.

By the modular construction protection heights of 100mm to 1900mm are realizable. Special sizes are also available.

If an object is in the protection field, i.e. it is darkened at least one of the beams,

the two outputs of the receiver interrupt the dangerous movement of the machine, or prevent a start. A renewed start of the machine is in the operating mode with restart only possible by pressing the start push-button during a free protection field.

Several LED at the receiver display thereby the respective operating condition. The system detects an internal or external error the machine is immediately switched off and the LED in the transmitter or in the receiver shows by flashing the error status.
