That 14mm resolution means it catches fingers reaching into the hazard zone, meeting the finger-protection class per IEC 61496-1. It's not for hand or body detection — that would be a coarser beam pitch. The protective height is 1055mm, built from 116 beams spaced at 9mm pitch. That gives you a sensing field that covers the full height of the guarded opening. The operating range spans 0.2m to 9.0m, so it works for short-reach machine access up to longer conveyor or robot cell perimeters. It's rated IP65 — dust-tight and protected against water jets. That means it can handle washdown on a packaging line or the dust and coolant mist you see on a machining center. Out here in the grease, that's what keeps the optics clear and the safety circuit live. Supply is 24VDC, standard for safety circuits.
Built-in flexibility: blanking and muting
This curtain includes blanking and muting functions built in. Blanking lets you ignore fixed obstructions like a machine frame passing through the light field. Muting temporarily suspends the safety output during a material transfer cycle — think a pallet moving through the curtain on a conveyor. You don't need an external safety controller for those functions on this unit.
