MS4800S-14-0560-10X-10R-RMX

Introduction

The MS4800S-14-0560-10X-10R-RMX is a light curtain system from the machine safety category used to protect machines, personnel and other objects. It uses light signals to form a self monitored zone through which objects must pass without interruption.

Purpose and Principle of Operation

The MS4800S-14-0560-10X-10R-RMX is designed to protect industrial operators and machinery from operational, maintenance, and process hazards by creating a powerful but adjustable light beam barrier. When the light beam is broken, it triggers a signal source which activates a safety response such as stopping the machine or triggering an alarm system. The protection zone extends from the light emission point to the light reception point and only objects which do not penetrate this zone are allowed to pass. This process works by forming a self monitored and controlled light beam which is transmitted using the sensors, transmitter and receiver module. The beam can detect objects which are obscured from view and non-permitted objects not having authorization.

Specifications and System Design

The MS4800S-14-0560-10X-10R-RMX light curtain features a maximum scan distance of 1460mm, a minimum number of 10 beams, and a total of 60 beams. It is composed of an extruded aluminum housing which includes an LED/sensor bar with 10 daisy-chained 10x channels. The surrounding space is detected through the installation of a 1 m x 1 m receiver module connected to a 1m x 1m transmitter module that generates the light beams. The system includes a few features as a warning sound, adjustable blanking time and sensitivity level. The LED light curtain is also endowed with safety output interlocks and overload protection.

Application Fields for the MS4800S-14-0560-10X-10R-RMX

The MS4800S-14-0560-10X-10R-RMX can be used in many application fields, such as:

• Warehouse and logistics
• Food and beverage production
• Industrial manufacturing
• Automation and robotics
• Material Handling and Packaging

The MS4800S-14-0560-10X-10R-RMX can be used in situations where safety is a priority for both people and machinery; such as machinery where operators need to be protected from hazardous by blocking access to dangerous areas, as well as throughout robotics and automation processes.

Conclusion

The MS4800S-14-0560-10X-10R-RMX is an excellent light curtain system from the machine safety category that can be used in a variety of different applications. It is self monitored, and its adjustable settings help ensure it is suitable for any application. It provides a reliable and cost effective solution for protecting both personnel and machines, and it is easy to install.
