Machine safety is an important element of industrial machining operations to help minimize accidents and correctly protect workers. Light curtains, also known as photoelectric or optoelectronic switches, are commonly used for machine safety systems in factories and warehouses. One of the most widely used light curtains is the C4C-EA18030A10000.

The C4C-EA18030A10000 is a long-range light curtain, comprising of a transmitter and receiver linked together by an integrated cord. The receiver of the light curtain receives light from the transmitter. The light is then transmitted to a receiver, producing an electric signal when the light curtain is energized. The C4C-EA18030A10000 comes with a single linear channel, and can detect up to 30m in length. The wide beam divergence angle ensures coverage of even the tallest machines at a variety of angles.

Due to its large range and wide divergence angle, the C4C-EA18030A10000 light curtain is often used in machine safety applications where machinery requires a comprehensive protection. It can be used to protect workers from hazardous motion created by large and complex machinery. The light curtain is also often employed in food processing and packaging operations to safeguard workers from moving machinery as it automatically interrupts power when personnel are detected in the range of the light curtain. Additionally, the C4C-EA18030A10000 is typically used in automated production lines to alert personnel if an obstruction is present, or to ensure control of machine inactivity.

The C4C-EA18030A10000 light curtain includes a controller, usually integrated into the casing of the light curtain. It is responsible for controlling the operation of the light curtain, from setting response time, attenuation levels, and monitoring light curtain status. Each controller is also responsible for executing safety functions which are established by the system integrator, such as the stop of guarded machinery when an even is detected.

The C4C-EA18030A10000 light curtain utilizes an active light curtain technology. It uses an electronic sensing system in which the transmitter sends out a beam of light that is sensed by the receiver. The transmitter is powered by an AC Current, while the receiver runs on a low voltage current, typically 24V. If the receiving sensor detects an object in the light curtain field, the receiver triggers it to open a safety circuit. This mechanism acts as a physical barrier between personnel and hazardous machine movement.

The C4C-EA18030A10000 is also designed to be compliant with the IEC 61496-1 standard, which is an essential requirements for machine protection. The C4C-EA18030A10000 is certified for a maximum ambient temperature of 40°C and rated for operation at an IP65 protection level, making it suitable for indoor and outdoor applications.

Overall, the C4C-EA18030A10000 light curtain is a reliable and robust machine safety device. It provides a wide range of protection for personnel from hazardous machinery. The long-range detection and extensive diversity angle makes the C4C-EA18030A10000 the preferred choice of light curtains in many industrial operations.
