They are optoelectronic equipment that has transmitting and receiving units, producing an infrared light screen capable of supervising a useful area comprised by the distance between those units. If someone or something enters the area between the units, the signal outputs will switch informing the control system connected to it. They can be used in a variety of applications, such as safety to protect hands and fingers or electronic grid.
LGW300
Opto-electronic device used to monitor areas on machines that pose a risk to the operator and when the dangerous movement of the machine can be stopped at any time. It contains an emitter and receiver unit and together they create a curtain of infrared beams with a resolution capable of monitoring arms, hands and fingers. They are typically applied to hydraulic and eccentric presses, injection molding machines, rolling mills, freight elevators, automated devices, robot guards and machine assembly. Their mechanical strength also allows them to be applied in challenging environments such as large presses, vibrating screens, mining processes and oil rigs.
