Leuze MLC300T20-900 Safety Light Curtain

The Leuze MLC300T20-900 is part of the robust MLC 300 series and features a finely tuned 20 mm resolution with a 900 mm protective field height, making it ideal for safeguarding medium-height access zones in assembly and packaging lines. It operates over a wide 0 to 15-meter range using a pulsed infrared LED light source with a 940 nm wavelength, ensuring high detection accuracy even in environments with background light interference. Powered by a stable 24 V DC supply (±20%), the MLC300T20-900 consumes just 50 mA, providing long-term energy efficiency in continuous operation. The model uses optical synchronization with its paired receiver, removing the need for interconnecting sync cables. The connection is handled through a standard M12 5-pin male connector, streamlining integration into modern industrial control systems. Its slim form factor, measuring 29 mm x 966 mm x 35.4 mm, and rugged aluminum housing with diecast zinc end caps ensure durability and a compact installation footprint. This safety light curtain is designed for real-world industrial conditions, with IP65 ingress protection against dust and water, and operates reliably within an ambient temperature range of 0 to 55 °C. Visual diagnostics are provided via dual LED indicators, enabling fast troubleshooting during machine commissioning or maintenance. With features like short-circuit and overvoltage protection, mounting versatility (groove, bracket, swivel, column), and proven performance, the Leuze MLC300T20-900 is a trusted choice for engineers seeking compliance, reliability, and ease of use in safety-critical environments.

The Leuze MLC300T20-900 Safety Light Curtain is an excellent fit for industrial applications where precise hand protection is required—such as semi-automatic machines, loading zones, or manual intervention points in assembly lines. Its 900 mm protective height allows operators to interact with machinery without compromising safety, making it suitable for use in electronic component insertion, packaging operations, or material handling systems. Indian maintenance engineers often prefer this model for its fast installation using standard M12 connectors and optical synchronization, which eliminates the need for extra sync wiring between transmitter and receiver. This simplifies electrical planning and reduces installation errors in factory environments with dense machinery setups. The rugged design and compact size are also beneficial in retrofitting older systems that require updated safety without major panel redesigns. Whether deployed in FMCG plants, pharmaceutical packaging lines, or small part assembly stations, the MLC300T20-900 enhances machine safety without interrupting productivity. Its reliability under harsh operating conditions, combined with Leuze’s reputation for quality, makes this safety light curtain a trusted solution among Indian system integrators and OEMs. The Leuze MLC300T20-900 Safety Light Curtain balances price, performance, and protection for a wide range of automation tasks.
