•
Dual-monitored Safety Valve, which controls the air flow that operates the clutch and
brake of the press. DSVs are available in many popular sizes.
•
System air pressure switches, which monitor the system air pressure.
•
Shadow light curtain: The Shadow light curtain is a presence-sensing device that places
an infrared light field between the point-of-operation and the operator. When something
enters the sensing field and a light beam is blocked, the object is detected and the press is
immediately stopped.
The standard WPC package is designed to be used with a Shadow light curtain. However,
you can purchase WPC without a light curtain. In this version, the control enclosure does
not have a MODE SELECT switch, and WPC will only operate in the TWO HAND
mode.
Shadow light curtain is optional for two-hand mode, but is required for point-of-operation
guarding if WPC is used with a foot switch or in the one-hand mode. WPC tests up to
two Shadow inputs every time the press is started and stopped.
