Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Principle of Safety Light Curtain?
Safety light curtains work on the principle of photoelectric detection. They consist of a transmitter and receiver, which emit and detect a field of infrared light beams. When an object interrupts these beams, the curtain sends a signal to halt machinery, ensuring immediate safety in the work area. This system is crucial for preventing accidents and protecting personnel.
What is the Difference Between Safety Light Curtain and Safety Light Grid?
Safety light curtains and safety light grids differ mainly in resolution and coverage. Light curtains have closely spaced beams, offering finer detection for finger and hand protection.
Light grids, with fewer beams spaced further apart, are used for larger object detection, like body protection. Both systems ensure safety by stopping machinery when beams are interrupted.
What is the Difference Between a Light Screen and a Light Curtain?
A light screen and a light curtain are essentially the same, both serving as safety devices. They use beams of light to create an invisible safety barrier. When these beams are interrupted, machinery automatically stops to prevent accidents. The terms are often used interchangeably in industrial safety contexts.
What Type of Sensor is a Light Curtain?
A light curtain is a type of photoelectric sensor. It creates an invisible safety barrier using infrared beams. When these beams are broken, the sensor triggers a response, typically halting dangerous machinery to prevent accidents. Light curtains are widely used for operator safety around industrial equipment.
