PROFIsafe safety light curtains and laser scanner
May 23rd 2006

Next month sees Leuze Mayser’s UK launch of what is believed to be the first range of safety light curtains and scanners that incorporate PROFIsafe capability as an integral design component. The advantages of this latest range of light curtains and scanner – to be sold under the banner of COMPACTplus and RS4 respectively – are increased versatility, improved costing and easier matching of safety solutions to specific applications.

COMPACTplus range of light curtains is available for hand and finger protection with 14mm and 30mm resolutions. For horizontal safeguarding of danger zones it offers 50mm and 90mm resolutions and there are light grids for perimeter guarding in 2, 3 and 4-beam configurations. The safety light curtain also supports a wide range of scanning distances – up to 6m for the 14mm resolution, 18m for the 30mm, 50mm and 90mm resolution models and 60m for the 2, 3 and 4-beam light grids.

The RS4 PROFIsafe laser scanner offers 190° 2 dimensional scanning, with four programmable pairs of protective fields.

In addition to PROFIsafe, other output modules such as semiconductor, relay, and SafetyBUS and AS-i enable the RS4 and COMPACTplus to be flexibly integrated into the existing infrastructure.
