Machine Safety - Light Curtains

Light curtains are an integral part of machine safety, due to their ability to react quickly to hazardous conditions. The MS4800B-30-1480-10X-10R is one such light curtain, designed for machine safety applications. Its application field and working principle are discussed in this article.

Application Field

The MS4800B-30-1480-10X-10R is suitable for a variety of settings. It is designed for use in industrial, mining, automotive, aerospace, and many other environments.It is also suitable for use in hazardous areas, as the light curtain has a flameproof design. This ensures that no sparks are created in the event of a short circuit, eliminating the risk of fire or explosions.The light curtain can also be used in applications with high levels of shock and vibration, as it is resistant to these two conditions.Additionally, the light curtain is designed to withstand a high degree of dust and moisture, making it suitable for use in outdoor applications.

Working Principle

The MS4800B-30-1480-10X-10R utilizes a beam of infrared light to detect objects within its detection range. When an object enters the detection zone, the light curtain is activated and sends an electronic signal to the machine it is controlling. This signal is then used to activate the machine’s safety system.This system is designed to prevent potential accidents by stopping the machine when an object is detected in its travel path. The beam of light has a detection range of up to 10 meters and can detect objects up to 1.5mm in size.The light curtain offers a high degree of accuracy and sensitivity, ensuring that false signals are not sent in the case of shadows or reflections. This helps to ensure that the machine’s safety system is not activated unnecessarily.

Conclusion

The MS4800B-30-1480-10X-10R is a light curtain designed for use in industrial, mining, automotive, aerospace, and many other environments. It utilizes a beam of infrared light to detect objects within its detection range, and has a detection range of up to 10 meters with a sensitivity of up to 1.5mm. Additionally, the light curtain has a flameproof design and is resistant to shock, vibration, dust, and moisture, making it suitable for use in many hazardous applications.
