Rapid market changes require flexible production line adjustments. This demands long-life safety sensor technology that is versatile in its application.

Whether it be hand protection or danger zone and access guarding, the type 4 Safety Light Curtains of the SOLID-4E series provide reliable protection and ensure the highest possible system availability with their robust and interference-immune design. Protected by a warp-resistant profile housing closed on four sides and with their uncomplicated M12 connection system, they withstand even the toughest industrial conditions.

The restart interlock and contactor monitoring functions, and two different transmission channels for a fault-free operation of adjacent devices close to one another, are freely selectable. Versions in resolutions of 14, 20, 30, 40, 90 mm, which guarantee short mounting times due to their slender designs and versatile fixing options, ensure flexible, cost-optimized solutions.
