Machine Safety - Light Curtains

Light curtains are a popular safety device used to prevent injury to workers from hazardous machinery. The XC40E-1201A0A0AAA0 is a light curtain designed for industrial safety applications. This article will discuss its application field and working principle.

Application Field

The XC40E is designed for use in a variety of hazardous machine operations, including those in which workers could become injured due to moving parts, rotating components, sharp edges, and high-velocity debris. It is also suitable for use in applications where machines have high switching frequencies. This includes robotic pick-and-place operations, metal working, machining, conveying, and welding.

The XC40E is designed to be used in hazardous situations where there is a risk of physical contact or other injury. It is certified UL and EN 61496-1 safety standard, making it suitable for use in ATEX, CSA, and other hazardous locations.

Working Principle

The XC40E light curtain works by sending a curtain of infrared light between two posts. When the beam is broken, a switch is activated. This switch can be connected to the machine control system, which will then shut down the machine when the beam is broken. This prevents the machine from operating if there is an obstacle in its path, thus protecting workers from injury.

The XC40E has an adjustable beam width, allowing it to be used in a variety of applications. The beam width can be adjusted between 1 and 40 millimeters, allowing it to be used on both large and small machines. Additionally, the light curtain can be used in a variety of orientations, including horizontal, vertical, and diagonal. The device is also available with single- and double-sided sensing.

The XC40E is designed to be self-monitoring, meaning that the system will automatically detect if the beam is not functioning properly. If an error is detected, the device will shut down the machine and display an error message. This allows the operator to take corrective action quickly, preventing further accidents.

Conclusion

The XC40E-1201A0A0AAA0 is a light curtain designed for industrial safety applications. It is designed to be used in hazardous situations where there is a risk of physical contact or other injury. It is certified UL and EN 61496-1 safety standard, making it suitable for use in ATEX, CSA, and other hazardous locations. The light curtain works by sending a curtain of infrared light between two posts which, when broken, will activate a switch to shut down the machine. The XC40E is self-monitoring, making it an ideal choice for keeping workers safe.
