Machine safety has always been a chief consideration in the manufacturing industry. With automated machinery and processes being used to minimize wastage and optimize productivity, there is a need to mitigate potential risks. Light curtains, used as protective barriers, can provide an extra layer of protection in hazardous areas. As an important part of machine safety, light curtains can help prevent injuries to personnel and damage to machines, and even avoid costly production lines and repairs.

The MSF4800B-14-1360 is an example of a light curtain from Metron-Farnell. This light curtain works through the use of an array of visible red (Infrared) light emitting diodes and photo-transistors. This arrangement creates an invisible barrier which, when breached, will halt machinery as an extra layer of security.

In terms of application field, the MSF4800B-14-1360 is often used on production lines or in other hazardous areas, such as material handling systems, chemical processing equipment, vehicle lifts, and packing machines. This type of light curtain is suitable for applications requiring security of personnel and machines, and can also be used in situations of limited space; all you need is an area opening of 100cm (2 metres from floor to ceiling).

To understand the working principle of the MSF4800B-14-1360, it is necessary to take a closer look at the light curtain design. The light curtain consists of two protective grids, each with a light source (infrared LED) and receiver (photo-transistor) connected to it. The two grids are placed at right angles with invisible Infrared light being fired into each gaps between them. When an object blocks the beam between the two units, the signal is detected and the machine is stopped, allowing personnel to intervene and correct the situation.

One of the advantages of the MSF4800B-14-1360 light curtain is its high degree of accuracy. The beam-to-beam distance is reduced to 4.5 mm, creating a secure and effective light curtain solution that is also easy to install and maintain. Additionally, the light curtain offers a 25 millisecond response time, meaning that it can quickly react to changes in the environment or the abrupt approach of an object, halting machinery the moment the light is blocked.

The MSF4800B-14-1360 is a reliable machine safety solution that can help prevent accidents and minimize the loss of personnel and damage to machinery. Its precision light curtain design offers versatility and accuracy, providing a simple and efficient safety barrier. Additionally, it is easy to install and maintain and offers a speedy 25 millisecond response time for remarkable security.
