Die Schutzfeldbreite ist die Länge des Lichtweges zwischen Sender und Empfänger. Sie
ist durch die Reichweite begrenzt. Informationen zu Schutzfeldhöhe, Auflösung und
Schutzfeldbreite: see "Data sheet", Page
With the appropriate resolution, the safety light curtain provides finger and hand pro‐
tection. The resolution corresponds to the diameter of the test rod belonging to the
safety light curtain, which is reliably detected when in the protective field.
The deTec2 Core safety light curtain is available with a protective field height of 300
mm to 2100 mm (150 mm steps). The available resolution versions are 14 mm (0 - 7
m scanning range) and 30 mm (0 - 10 m scanning range).
The scanning range is reduced by using deflector mirrors and/or a weld spark guard.
Additional information: see "Deflector mirror", Page 56
Page 55.
The design and construction of the safety light curtain extends the protective function
of a device to the end of the housing without any blind spots. The absence of blind
zones reduces the space requirement when integrated in the machine.
When switched on, the safety light curtain automatically calibrates to the protective
field width.
The sender and receiver LEDs indicate the operating status of the safety light curtains.
