MSF4800S-20-0960-20-0960-40-04

The MSF4800S-20-0960-20-0960-40-04 is a machine safety light curtain particularly well suited for the industrial robot applications. Light curtains are often used in industrial settings to provide a safety barrier between operators and various types of machines such as robots, injection molding machines and CNC machining centers.

The MSF4800S-20-0960-20-0960-40-04 light curtain uses an array of infrared light emitter and detector that run the length of a beam curtain. When an object breaks the beam, a signal is sent to a safety controller which then shuts off the machine or actuates the necessary safety devices. The beam length of the MSF4800S varies from 20 – 960mm, and has a resolution of 1mm. It is manufactured from abs-plastic, and is IP65 rated for dust and water protection.

The Safety Light curtain comes standard with a built in muting, which allows for access through the guarded area without deactivating the light curtain. This feature allows a technician to access the guarded area when necessary, without having to power off the system or make any changes to the safety system. The MSF4800S is also equipped with a third-party quick disconnect, which allows the light curtain to be removed with ease when needed.

The light curtain is also equipped with a locking mechanism, which when engaged, deactivates the beams in the curtain, allowing personnel through without the presence of a safety object. This feature allows for some flexibility and convenience when personnel needs to service the area guarded by the light curtain. The light curtain includes two separate models, the first being the MSF4800S-20, a basic presence-sensing device, and the second being the MSF4800S-40, an advanced lock-guarded light curtain.

The MSF4800S-20 and MSF4800S-40 is suitable for a variety of applications, including those in the automotive, aerospace and medicine industries. Its use in these industries can be seen as a safety measure as well as a way of optimizing production time, as it allows personnel to access areas that are otherwise monitored and guarded by the light curtain without having to completely power off the system.

The MSF4800S offers easy installation which can be done within a few simple steps. The light curtain is typically mounted between two fixed locations, with the controller connected to the power supply and each of the other components connected to the curtain. The safety light curtain is supplied with a host of safety features, including muting, locking mechanisms, safety sensors, and a third-party quick disconnect.

The MSF4800S-20-0960-20-0960-40-04 is an excellent choice for those looking for an effective, yet easy to install machine safety light curtain. It provides a quick and easy way to access the area guarded by the light curtain without having to deactivate the system, and its built-in quick disconnect allows for easy unmounting and relocation of the light curtain. Furthermore, the sophisticated safety features, such as muting and locking mechanisms, enhance the capabilities of this device even further.
