Guarded Safety Light Curtain
July 1, 2013
KEYENCE has added the GL-R Series to its safety light curtain lineup.
The GL-R Series is built from a 3 mm thick extruded aluminum body with a narrow, 9 mm wide recessed lens surface. It is designed to completely guard the light curtain from impact damage and the housing is sealed to meet IP65 and IP67 ratings for use in harsh environments.
The GL-R Series features simplified wiring systems and brackets. A one-line wiring system allows the transmitter to be connected in series directly to the receiver for power and synchronization purposes. Pre-assembled, quick fit brackets lock into the back channel of the GL-R housing by tightening two screws and can be attached to standard equipment framework without the need for special protective hardware.
The GL-R Series also includes "smart" features, including edge to edge detection, series connection, built-in muting and blanking, visible indicators, quick disconnect cable options and monitoring software.
