Machine Safety - Light Curtains

Light curtains are automated safety devices that are used to protect personnel from dangerous machines. The F3SG-4RA1550-30 is a type of light curtain used in certain applications to detect and block possible hazardous motion before it can cause harm. This article provides a description of applications where the F3SG-4RA1550-30 may be used, as well as a brief overview of its working principles.

Application Field

The F3SG-4RA1550-30 is typically used in industrial settings where personnel require protection from moving parts of a machine. It is typically used to protect personnel working near high-speed machines, or those with dangerous movement associated with them. The F3SG-4RA1550-30 is suitable for use in applications with up to 1550mm of curtain coverage, and for use in hazardous areas due to its IP54 rating.

In addition, the F3SG-4RA1550-30 is well-suited for use in applications such as conveyors that require protection of personnel from dangerous parts. It is also frequently used in applications such as machine tool centers, and in medical equipment. All of these meet the requirements of EN954.1 and ANSI B11.19.

Working Principle

The F3SG-4RA1550-30 light curtain works by using infrared (IR) light to detect motion across an area. An array of four infrared light-emitting diodes (LEDs) is installed at the top of the light curtain, and then two rows of four detectors are placed at the bottom of the curtain. The LEDs and detectors act as a 4-channel transmitter/receiver set, and when either row of detectors is interrupted by motion, the safety curtain is triggered.

The F3SG-4RA1550-30 light curtain is a Type 4 device according to EN954-1, so it has the ability to detect a wide range of objects crossing its path. This includes virtually any solid object, such as a hand, arm, or other body part. In addition, it is capable of detecting objects that are moving at speeds up to 120mm/s, as well as objects that are moving in different directions. This ensures that the curtain can detect a wide variety of potential safety hazards and respond appropriately.

The F3SG-4RA1550-30 light curtain also has self-monitoring capabilities that allow it to detect any potential hardware faults, and alert personnel to any possible issues that need addressing. This ensures that the curtain is operating properly and providing the appropriate level of protection from hazardous motions.

Conclusion

The F3SG-4RA1550-30 light curtain is highly effective in providing personnel with the necessary protection from hazardous motions of machines. It is suitable for use in a wide variety of applications and is compliant with both EN954-1 and ANSI B11.19 standards. It is capable of detecting objects passing through it, regardless of speed or direction, and it has self-monitoring capabilities that can detect potential hardware faults. Overall, the F3SG-4RA1550-30 is an effective and reliable light curtain that can help to protect personnel from dangerous motions.
