The Leuze MLC310R20-1050 Safety Light Curtain receiver is part of the trusted MLC 300 series and is engineered for demanding safety applications. It features a precise resolution of 20 mm and a robust protective field height of 1,050 mm, ideal for safeguarding operator hands in automated processes. The receiver operates on a stable 24 V DC supply (with a tolerance of -20% to +20%) and consumes a maximum of 150 mA current, making it both reliable and energy-efficient.
Equipped with 2 PNP OSSD switching outputs, the system provides dual-channel safety redundancy. The switching output delivers a typical voltage of 22.5 V, with high/low levels of 18 V and 2.5 V respectively. The design ensures safety compliance with short-circuit and overvoltage protection built-in. The robust housing, made from aluminum with PMMA lens cover, features a yellow RAL 1021 finish and offers an IP65 rating—suitable for dusty and humid industrial environments.
Its compact form factor—measuring 29 mm x 1,116 mm x 35.4 mm—and versatile M12 5-pin male connector ensure easy integration into modern control systems. The response time of 19 ms and optical synchronization between transmitter and receiver further enhance safety and performance. The Leuze MLC310R20-1050 is a go-to solution for safety engineers seeking both dependability and ease of installation.

The Leuze MLC310R20-1050 Safety Light Curtain is purpose-built for hand protection in industrial automation setups such as robotic assembly cells, press machines, material handling systems, and automated packaging lines. When installed near hazardous zones, it actively detects any hand intrusion across its 1,050 mm protective field height, triggering machine shutdowns in under 20 milliseconds—thereby preventing injury while minimizing downtime.
Its slim aluminum housing and flexible mounting options—bracket, groove, or swivel—allow it to be seamlessly integrated into space-constrained panels or machine enclosures. Thanks to its optical synchronization and automatic restart functionality, maintenance and troubleshooting are simplified. This makes it a highly reliable choice for Indian maintenance engineers and OEM system integrators working in harsh or fast-paced industrial settings.
Whether you are upgrading an existing safety system or planning a new machine installation, the Leuze MLC310R20-1050 offers the performance, compliance, and peace of mind required in today’s industrial safety landscape. For reliable safety light curtain solutions backed by German engineering, this model stands out as a top-tier option.
