Machine Safety - Light Curtains

Light curtains, like MS4800A-14-1480-10X-10R, are an important part of machine safety. They are designed to detect the presence of a person or object near a dangerous area of a machine, or in a hazardous work zone. When a person or object is detected, the light curtain will send a signal which can be used to stop or slow down the machinery in order to prevent accidents and injuries.

Light curtains are typically composed of a series of evenly spaced, thin vertical beams of infrared or visible light emitted from a transmitter, directed toward a separate receiver. This receiver is divided into sections, and when a frame is detected, the transmitter will send a signal to the receiver. The receiver then processes the information and signals a contact closure, or activates a safety relay.

Factory automation applications are increasingly relying on light curtains for their safety operations. By installing light curtains at the entrance to a production area or at the edge of a machine, dangerous work and entry points can be effectively monitored. The beams are sensitive enough to detect even the smallest of objects that pass between the source and receiver, greatly reducing the risk of injury.

MS4800A-14-1480-10X-10R light curtains provide superior protection as they are designed to detect objects as small as 1.2mm in width, with a detection range of up to 10m. This makes them ideal for use in work areas where even small objects must be detected, and hazards to personnel need to be quickly prevented. The light curtains are also highly reliable and have low error rates, making them a safe and reliable addition to any machine safety system.

These light curtains are also easy to install and configure. They can be connected directly to a safety relay using two contacts, PNP and NPN. The relay provides a highly reliable connection to the safety system, which will be triggered when an object is detected in the beam. An adjustable time delay is available, and can be used to ensure that the safety system is triggered at the right time.

MS4800A-14-1480-10X-10R light curtains are ideal for applications where an additional level of safety is required, such as in food manufacturing, construction, and engineering operations. By providing an extra layer of safety and detection, the risk of injury and accidents is greatly reduced.
