A pair consists of identical twin units
incorporating both photoelectric
emitters and receivers in a single array
across the full length of the housing to
maximise use of space, with optimum
performance that virtually eliminates
blind zones and reduce the need for
multiple spares.
Visible LED indicators are installed
along the full sensing height to indicate
the functional state of each transmitter
and assist in easy optical alignment.
With specially developed brackets for
rapid mounting, the light curtain has
been designed for maximum machine
availability.
The SICK TWINOX4 hygienic safety light
curtain offers high levels of protection
with integrated Restart Interlock,
External Device Monitoring (EDM) and
beam coding along with OSSD’s for
connection to a safety controller such
as the SICK Flexi Soft system.
Each SICK TWINOX4 housing is made
from high-quality AISI 316L / V4A /
1.4404 hygienic stainless steel with
a surface roughness (Ra) of 0.8μm,
either IP65 or IP67, and a front screen
of chemically hardened float glass. It is
designed without overlaps, overhangs
or seams and with radiused corners to
eliminate residual contamination.
Machine integration flexibility for
both machinebuilders and end-users
is assured with a choice of 300mm,
420mm and 600mm light curtain
heights, over a width range of up to
4.5 metres. Operating temperatures
range from -20°C to +55°C, hygienic
and chemical resistant PUR cable is
supplied with standard industrial M12
5-pin connections for the devices.
