EOS2 safety light curtains

One simple product range to cover most of today’s industrial applications

  • Standard models 
    EOS2 A  – Type 2 Safety Light curtains with Automatic Restart

  • Integrated functions models
    EOS2 X – Type 2 Safety Light curtains with selectable Automatic/Manual Restart and EDM

  • Cascade connection of two or three light curtains
    No optical interference between the light curtains. Possibility of combining different resolutions and protected heights

Special Version

  • WTF and WTHF models
    (IP69K certified, Ecolab food-graded)Watertight enclosures allow light curtains and light grids to be used in a harsh working environments with exposure to water and steam.
  • T versions (Textile)
    Special versions resistant to high vibrations for applications in the textile industry. These versions are able to maintain the alignment of the beams also the presence of strong mechanical stresses and vibrations.

Resolutions and ranges

The available resolutions cover every protection requirement:

  • 20 – 30 – 40 mm – hand protection
  • 50 – 90 mm – body protection
  • 2 – 3 – 4  beams – access control

Models (A – X) maximum range: 4 m (low range) 12 m (high range)

No blind area on one side

Minimal blind area on connector side. The protected area extends until the light curtain end maintaining the resolution.L-mounted light curtains maintain 40 mm resolution (hand detection) in corner (models with resolution 30 and 40 mm).

A complete range for all industrial applications

EOS4 description

A. Aluminum casing powder-coated

B. Caps glass reinforced polypropylene

C. Zero-Dead-Zone on one side of the curtain
The position of first beam ensures that the sensitive area extends to end of the light curtain. The protected area extends until the light curtain end, maintaining the resolution

D. Status indicating display. Including alignment aids

E. M12 connectors
Cables easy to source and replace. No shielded cables needed

Hardware configuration 
No programming necessary Easy to install and replace

Minimal cross section: 28 x 30 mm

Master/Slave versions for cascade connection of two or three curtains

Cascading function

Master/Slave versions allow series connection of up to three light curtains

Major benefits

  • Combined detection (hand + presence of a person or protection of more sides of the machine)
  • Single pair of safety outputs is used
  • No interference between light curtains installed adjacent to one another

Connections

All electrical connections made using M12 5-pole connectors except for Master receivers which require the use of M12 8-pole connectors.

Pre-wired cables with twin connectors are available for the connection between Master and Slave.
