Its 30 mm detection capability means the curtain reliably catches a finger or hand reaching through the protective field — this is the resolution that determines what body part the system guards per ISO 13855 and IEC 61496-1. The 620 mm protective height and 25 beams at 25 mm pitch define the coverage area; install it so the field spans the full opening or hazard reach. Blanketing a 0.2 m to 9.0 m operating range, this curtain suits both short-reach machine guarding and longer perimeter applications within a single emitter-receiver pair. The IP65 rating means the housings and optics withstand washdown and airborne dust — appropriate for food processing, packaging lines, and machining cells where coolant mist or cleaning cycles are routine.
The 30 mm detection capability is the headline selection parameter: it classifies the curtain as hand/arm protection (not finger protection, which would require a finer 14 mm resolution). If your risk assessment demands finger detection, this unit does not meet that bar. For hand and arm guarding at press brakes, robot cells, or conveyor infeed zones, it is sized correctly. Rated for 24 VDC supply — standard for safety circuits in modern control panels. Blanking and muting functions are built in, allowing the curtain to ignore fixed obstructions (blanking) or temporarily bypass the field during a material pass-through (muting). These are configurable features that reduce nuisance trips without compromising safety integrity when properly wired into the safety relay or controller.
