Machine Safety - Light Curtains

Light curtain safety systems are used to protect operators and other personnel from injury on or near hazardous machinery. The purpose of MS4800B-20-1680 is to increase the safety of personnel in and around machine tools and production lines. This device utilizes a continuous beam of infrared light and its associated receiver. Sensors are paired together creating a light curtain along the work surface. When the light is interrupted or blocked, the machine is shut off or disabled.

MS4800B-20-1680 has a variety of applications where it can be effectively used. It is especially useful in areas that are large enough for the operator to walk into a space and not be able to see the hazard associated with the machine. This is especially beneficial in hazardous areas that require a lot of manual intervention such as metalworking, welding, and grinding. It can also be effective around fast moving components, such as applications involving robotics and automated processes. In these cases, the light limits access and ensures that personnel are at a safe distance from the application.

Principle of Operation

The MS4800B-20-1680 operates by emitting a beam of light from the emitter head, which is then detected by a sensitive receiver located in the receiver head. The receiver then sends a signal to the control logic indicating whether or not an object is blocking the beam of light. If a person or object breaks the light curtain, the signal is sent to the control logic, which then immediately shuts down the machine or sends a signal that the machine must be stopped and disabled before any further interaction can occur.

The light curtain is fully adjustable to suit a variety of operating conditions and can be programmed according to the application. For example, the sensors can be placed in various locations to create a larger or smaller safety zone, and the control logic software can be programmed to adjust the response time of the machine to the interruption of the light curtain. This allows the machine to react quickly and safely.

Conclusion

The MS4800B-20-1680 is an effective safety system for industrial and machine automation applications. It provides a safe environment for personnel in hazardous environments, while allowing for easy access to the machinery. The adjustable sensors and control logic software make it possible to program the machine to react quickly and safely to the interruption of the light curtain. This ensures that personnel are never subjected to dangerous situations while working with the machinery.
