Safety Light Curtains

Curtain for efficient safety

Reliable and interference-immune sensor safety technology ensures high system availability and productivity. Wherever man and machine work "hand in hand", our safety light curtains can be used vertically as hand and finger protection, as access guarding as well as horizontally as area protection. With respect to integration capability, availability and cost effectiveness, they meet the highest requirements.

MLC 500

Type 4 safety light curtains

The MLC 500 series includes the newest generation of extremely sturdy type 4 safety light curtains. Three function classes - Basic, Standard and Extended - enable the most efficient use of devices from simple standard applications to complex controlled special safeguarding processes. The devices can be used universally, due to metal end caps, a flexible fastening concept and the option of form-locking installation. There are also variants which have an AIDA-compliant pin assignment.

MLC 510

The type 4 Basic model for a varieties of applications

This Basic version of the type 4 safety light curtains provides the most important functions. Range reduction on the transmitter, reversible transmission channels, a LED display as well as an automatic start/restart interlock round out the range of service

  • Automatic start/restart

  • Optimal handling

  • Prevention of mutual interference of the sensors by selectable transmission channels and range reduction, if applicable

  • Universal application due to standard functions

  • Short delivery times and global availability

  • QR code on the sensor for quick service information

MLC 511

The type 4 Basic variant with AIDA-compliant pin assignment

The devices have a plug connection with AIDA-compliant M12 pin assignment (Automatisierungs-Initiative deutscher Automobilisten (AIDA) = Automation Initiative of German automobile manufacturers).

  • Automatic start/restart

  • Optimal handling

  • Range reduction on demand

  • Universal application due to standard functions

  • Short delivery times and global availability

  • QR code on the sensor for quick service information

MLC 520

The type 4 Standard models with function extension

The Standard version of these type 4 safety light curtains features a start/restart interlock (RES) and contactor monitoring (EDM) for increased performance - and it is simple to handle and integrate into your systems.

  • Basic functions such as automatic start/restart, start/restart interlock (RES), contactor monitoring (EDM)

  • Optimal handling due to function selection without PC as well as LED and 7-segment display with integrated 3-zone alignment aid

  • Prevention of mutual interference of the sensors by selectable transmission channels and range reduction, if applicable

  • Short delivery times and global availability

  • QR code on the sensor for quick service information

MLC 530

The type 4 Extended model with lots of extras for your individual requirements

Whenever you need additional control functions, the MLC 530 Extended version is the perfect choice. With its 5 different operating modes, the integrated muting function and 3 different scan modes, the sensor leaves almost nothing to be desired. Device linking enables the construction of 2-channel, contact-based safety circuits as well as serial connections of several devices with safety-related switching outputs (OSSD).

  • Integrated function for timing controlled muting for temporary proper bridging of the protective function, e.g. when transporting materials through the protective field

  • Fixed or floating beam blanking, reduced resolution: necessary whenever objects must be in the protective field for operational reasons.

  • Different scan modes: to adjust availability, select SingleScan, DoubleScan or MaxiScan.

  • Teaching without PC: configuration and teaching, e.g. of floating beam blanking, is quick and easy.
