Whitepaper: Selection Guidelines For Safety Light Curtains

May 10, 2022
Safety light curtains are a viable safeguarding option for point of operation or perimeter guarding. Choosing the right one is not terribly complicated, once a thorough risk assessment is performed.

Safety light curtains provide a non-separating barrier which will detect operators attempting to access hazardous machines and areas. When the infrared light beams (non-visible) are interrupted, the redundant safety circuit is disabled causing the hazardous process to come to a halt within milliseconds.

Learn about the four main options to consider in selecting the right Safety Light Curtain for your application:

  • Type
  • Resolution
  • Protection field
  • Special operation modes needed
