Machine Safety - Light Curtains

Light curtains are one of the most portable and cost-effective safety devices available for industrial and commercial applications. They provide detection of physical objects within a protected boundary and can be used to guard personnel from machine-related hazards. Light curtains also provide protection against pinch points, the pressurized areas around moving parts that can cause serious injuries if an operator\'s body is between them. MS4800A-14-1120-10X-10R is an example of such a safety device.

Overview of MS4800A-14-1120-10X-10R

MS4800A-14-1120-10X-10R is a safety light curtain manufactured by Mitsubishi Electric. It is designed for easy installation and operation, with a sensing distance of 14”. It has 10 channels (transmitters and receivers) with a 12” pitch, ensuring that the operator and other persons have a safe distance from the machine. It also has a single-phase power supply (voltage range: 100-240 VAC), two switched outputs, a built-in test switch, and two visibility LED per channel, allowing easy monitoring.

Application Fields for MS4800A-14-1120-10X-10R

MS4800A-14-1120-10X-10R is suitable for a wide range of safety applications in various industries. It can be used to detect hand entry into high-speed machinery, such as paper cutters, power presses, guillotines, metalworking machines, and robotics applications. It can also be used to monitor areas with hazardous levels of toxic gases or hazardous liquids, such as tanks and storage areas. The device is also suitable for detection of hazardous conditions in hazardous work areas, such as explosions, fire, and excess heat.

Working Principle of MS4800A-14-1120-10X-10R

MS4800A-14-1120-10X-10R is an active light curtain that comprises of a create of light emitting diodes (LEDs) and optical sensors. This particular model comprises of 10 transmitters and 10 receivers mounted on a 3m long rail. The LEDs emit infrared light in a beam which is detected by the optical sensors. When an object breaks the light beam, the optical sensors detect the interruption and send an electrical signal to the controller. The controller then interprets the signal and sends an output to shut down the machine or activate a warning light, depending on the configuration.

Reliability and Diagnostics of MS4800A-14-1120-10X-10R

MS4800A-14-1120-10X-10R has a standard IP-65 enclosure which provides dust and oil resistance, and makes it suitable for outdoor use. It has been designed with SIL-2 certification from the IEC 61508 safety integrity standards, ensuring that it meets the highest levels of dependability and reliability. The device also has a built-in test switch and two visibility LEDs per channel, allowing for easy diagnostics and testing.

Conclusion

MS4800A-14-1120-10X-10R is a safety light curtain manufactured by Mitsubishi Electric and is suitable for a wide range of safety applications. This device is characterized by an easy installation and operation, high reliability and IP-65 enclosure. It also features two visibility LEDs per channel, allowing for easy diagnostics and testing.
