Machine Safety Light Curtains, most notably those made by MechSafe, are an important safety technology in many production and manufacturing environments. The MS4800A-20-0840 model from MechSafe is a popular, high-reliability choice for light curtain installations. This article takes a look at the application fields and working principles of this particular light curtain.

General Description and Application Fields

The MS4800A-20-0840 is a 4m-wide, 20mm-resolution active light curtain from MechSafe. It has a wide range of applications, but the most common uses include providing a safeguarding barrier on production or assembly lines, where it can protect personnel from moving machinery parts; creating an intrusion protection area for machine-guarding solutions; and protecting a process from user intrusion. Additionally, the MS4800A-20-0840 provides excellent protection from an industrial environment’s harsh environment. MechSafe light curtains are suitable for use in extreme temperatures, humidity, dust, and vibration.

Operating Principles of the MS4800A-20-0840 Light Curtain

The MS4800A-20-0840 is a high-precision light curtain system. It uses an active sensing method, which means that light is actively emitted from an array of LEDs inside the light curtain body. When light is obstructed, the MS4800A-20-0840 detects this obstruction. The LED array sends out a pulse of light every 100 μs, with a resolution up to 0.2 mm in order to detect the slightest of obstructions quickly and safely.

The MS4800A-20-0840 has an integrated Opto-sensor feedback controller, which allows for detailed detection decisions in challenging operating environment. For example, the light curtain can detect objects accurately and quickly even when the environment is dust-filled or has high levels of ambient light due to its high resolution. The light curtain also has adjustable sensitivity, which can be set up to match the specific application. This adjustable sensitivity can also prevent false alarms, which may occur when the light curtain detects objects which are irrelevant to the safeguarding or intrusion protection goal.

In addition to the adjustable sensitivity, the light curtain offers advanced safety features such as a self-diagnostic test, which is designed to detect light curtain faults. The light curtain also boasts an advanced optical design, which allows the light curtain to integrate easily at increased distances and with fewer required light barriers. Last but not least, the MS4800A-20-0840 also has a direct output, which eliminates the need for a control box, thereby reducing the installation time and cost.

Conclusion

The MS4800A-20-0840 from MechSafe is a reliable and safe light curtain model, with a wide range of applications. It boasts a high resolution of up to 0.2 mm, an adjustable sensitivity and direct output, and an advanced design which makes it easy to integrate without requiring additional light barriers. With its high reliability and advanced safety features, the MS4800A-20-0840 light curtain is an ideal choice for various applications in manufacturing, production, and processing environments.
