MSF4800-20-0840-X2 Application Field and Working Principle

Machine safety is an important concern in the modern industrial workplace. Light curtains are an effective tool for reducing worker injury from hazardous machines and equipment. The MSF4800-20-0840-X2 is a light curtain model from Noga Technologies that is specifically designed for reliable safety protection of personnel and equipment.

Application Fields

The MSF4800-20-0840-X2 is ideal for applications that require wide area coverage. The device has a range of up to 20 meters and can be placed between, above, and below objects of any size and shape without using complicated methods. This makes it a perfect choice for safeguarding personnel and material handling applications.

The MSF4800-20-0840-X2 is also an effective and cost-efficient solution for a variety of space-limited areas, such as in stairwells, on mezzanines, and airships. In addition, all columns of the device can be individually adjusted in length, making it adaptable to virtually any dimensions.

Working Principle

The MSF4800-20-0840-X2 is a type 2 light curtain that meets the requirements of IEC 61496-1 and EN ISO 13849-1. It consists of two columns of infrared emitters and detectors, and it is powered by a 24Vdc supply. The two columns of the device are in active state when there is no interruption in the infrared beam between them, however; when an object blocks the infrared beam, the device is automatically switched off.

The device can operate in two modes: mutual and alternating. In mutual mode, the two columns of emitters and detectors must detect each other in order for the system to be triggered. In alternating mode, only one column of emitters and detectors must detect an object for the system to be triggered. Both modes are designed to provide the highest levels of safety protection.

Conclusion

The MSF4800-20-0840-X2 light curtain from Noga Technologies is a great solution for a variety of hazardous machine operations. The device provides reliable safety protection for personnel in a variety of applications and environments. It is easy to install and can be adjusted to any size space. With its long range and two operation modes, the MSF4800-20-0840-X2 is an ideal choice for machine safety.
