The Leuze MLC300T20-150 offers high-precision hand protection with a tight 20 mm resolution and a protective field height of 150 mm, designed for applications requiring close-range object detection. This safety light curtain supports an impressive operating range of up to 15 meters while using a pulsed infrared LED light source at a wavelength of 940 nm, ensuring stable and interference-free sensing across various lighting conditions. The transmitter operates on a stable 24 V DC supply (Β±20%) and draws just 50 mA, making it energy-efficient and suitable for continuous operation. Communication between the transmitter and receiver is achieved through optical synchronization, eliminating the need for wiring between units. It connects via a standard M12 5-pin male connector, ensuring quick installation into existing safety systems and minimal configuration time. With a compact structure measuring 29 mm x 216 mm x 35.4 mm and a lightweight build of 300 g, the MLC300T20-150 fits easily into tight machine enclosures and small automation zones. The rugged aluminum housing and diecast zinc end caps, along with a PMMA lens cover, protect the internals from dust, impact, and wear. Additional highlights include IP65-rated protection, short-circuit resistance, overvoltage protection, and visual status indicators via dual LED displays. These features make the Leuze MLC300T20-150 Safety Light Curtain a trusted choice for compact machinery where safety precision is critical.
The Leuze MLC300T20-150 Safety Light Curtain is engineered for applications requiring narrow detection zones β such as pick-and-place stations, tray loading areas, and electronic assembly lines. With its 150 mm protective height, it provides optimal safety for low-access points where precision and speed are crucial. In Indian industries like electronics manufacturing, lab automation, and pharmaceutical packaging, machines often involve repetitive motion near moving parts. This model helps prevent finger and hand injuries while enabling smooth operator interaction. The 20 mm resolution allows detection of even thin objects, ensuring the system reacts instantly to any breach within the protected area. With its compact form factor, plug-and-play M12 connector, and fast diagnostics via LED display, engineers can integrate the MLC300T20-150 into control panels without disrupting existing processes. For industrial plants seeking compact, compliant, and high-accuracy safety solutions, this safety light curtain from Leuze delivers the protection, quality, and dependability expected from a global automation leader.
