The MLC 500 series includes the newest generation of extremely sturdy type 4 safety light curtains. Three function classes – Basic, Standard and Extended – enable the most efficient use of devices from simple standard applications to complex controlled safeguarding processes. The devices can be used universally, due to the flexible fastening concept and the option of form-locking installation. In addition, the series offers custom solutions for further areas of application. These include extra slim design, AIDA-compliant pin assignment, integrated AS-i interface, protection classes IP67/69K as well as especially impact-resistant, cascadable or EX-certified models.

This Basic model of the type 4 safety light curtains provides the most important functions. Range reduction on the transmitter, reversible transmission channels, a LED display as well as an automatic start/restart interlock round out the range of service. The type 4 Basic model is suitable for a range of applications and is optionally available with AS-i interface or protection class IP 67/69K.

The devices have a plug connection with AIDA-compliant M12 pin assignment (Automatisierungs-Initiative deutscher Automobilisten (AIDA) = Automation Initiative of German automobile manufacturers).

The Standard version of these type 4 safety light curtains features a start/restart interlock (RES) and contactor monitoring (EDM) for increased performance – and it is simple to handle and integrate into your systems. Reaching under and stepping behind protection as well as rear zone guarding can be efficiently implemented with the cascadable model.
