Video: Slim Light Grids Provide Protection For The Tightest Spaces

The new Psen Opt Slim light barriers are suitable for space-critical areas on machines with cyclical interventions, such as inlay work or material feed and removal. Thanks to the cascading function without dead zones, they offer effective protection against overlapping and kicking in according to IEC 61496-2.
Increased machine availability
The LED display enables the operator to identify the main causes responsible for the machine stop at a glance. In this way, machine availability can be increased.
Psenopt Slim can be installed quickly and easily with compatible assembly aids. A wide range of accessories such as deflecting mirrors and test bars is also available for Psenopt Slim.
Equipped for all security cases
There are a large number of variants for the various applications: The designer can choose between light grids type 2 and type 4 according to EN / IEC 61496-1 / -2 as well as corresponding variants for finger and hand protection. You can choose between different protective field heights - from 150 mm to 1200 mm.
In connection with, for example, the Pnoz Sigma safety relays or the configurable Pnoz Multi control systems, Psenopt Slim offer the user an economical and complete solution for machine safety. (jv)
