MS4800B-14-0360 Machine Safety - Light Curtains Application Field and Working Principle

Light curtains are essential safety devices that are used to protect personnel from potential hazardous machines, processes, tools, and environments. In addition, they help to reduce production downtime, as well as avoid costly downtime and lost workdays due to compensable injuries. The MS4800B-14-0360 is a light curtain from Rockwell Automation that is designed for optimal safety and productivity improvements. This article will discuss the application field and working principle of this light curtain.

Application Field of the MS4800B-14-0360

The MS4800B-14-0360 light curtain is ideal for applications requiring areas of safety monitoring over distances as large as 3 to 10 meters. The narrow light beam width of 6mm makes this light curtain particularly suitable for monitoring safety on smaller dimensions. The light curtain is also capable of reliably monitoring the workplace in high levels of ambient light, including direct sunlight. Additionally, it has an auto-ceiling height feature that allows the light curtain to be positioned at the highest point of the monitored environment without requiring manual selection of the maximum switching distance. This light curtain is also designed for applications in various industrial fields, including sawing machines, presses, and conveyor systems. For flexibility, the light curtain can be programmed directly from the front panel with no external programming device required. Furthermore, its integrated two-channel output allows both safe and emergency stop control, making it suitable for industrial safety applications.

Working Principle of the MS4800B-14-0360

The MS4800B-14-0360 light curtain works by detecting the presence of an object that is moved into the protected area, using infrared (IR) light. The light curtain has an array of IR emitters and detectors that are mounted into a sleek, slim housing, which can be easily mounted on the target machine or system. The IR emitters generates a narrow, invisible light beam that enters the detector module. If any object interrupts this beam, the beam hits the object and triggers an interrupt signal.Once the signal is generated, the light curtain stops the protected machine or system from operating, thus preventing any potential accidents or injuries. The light curtain has the ability to detect objects as small as 6mm, and can reliably detect any objects interposed in the beams up to a certain width. Additionally, the light curtain has a high detection accuracy and working speed, making it suitable for high-speed working environment.

Conclusion

The MS4800B-14-0360 light curtain from Rockwell Automation is designed for optimal safety and productivity improvements. This light curtain is ideal for applications requiring areas of safety monitoring over distances as large as 3 to 10 meters, and is suitable for applications in various industrial fields. Additionally, it works by detecting the presence of an object that is moved into the protected area, using infrared (IR) light. With its high detection accuracy and working speed, this light curtain is an ideal choice for various industrial safety applications.
