The Leuze ELC 100 safety light curtains guard points of operation and help make machine designs cost effective.
Due to the supports with swivel function, the ELC 100 safety light curtains are quick to install.
The multilevel alignment display is easy to read and can be used to quickly position the devices in the optimum alignment.
Connecting the ELC 100 safety light curtains via the 4-pin cable is also particularly easy. The devices do not require configuration.
Manufacturers and operating companies of machines and systems can use Leuze safety technology for contactless guarding of points of operation. The ELC 100 safety light curtains are suitable for applications with operating ranges of up to 6 m and enable guarding with short safety distances.
With these devices, Leuze offers optoelectronic safety technology for a cost-effective machine design. The ELC 100 safety light curtains focus on the key features and can be used in various applications, for example, guarding machine openings where parts are fed in manually.
Their high resolutions of 17 mm and 30 mm reliably detect fingers and hands. The protective field extends to the edge of the housing. As a result, the devices can be mounted flush at the boundaries without any dead zones occurring. The cable outlet is specially constructed to enable flexible integration of the devices into the machine design. The cable can be oriented in any direction. The safety light curtains are also optimally designed for access guarding on machines and systems, since the protective fields are up to 1,500 mm in length. Due to their high shock resistance, the safety light curtains are also suitable for safeguarding points of operation on presses.
The simple mechanical and electrical design enables quick installation of the devices. The supports with swivel function can be easily mounted into the grooves of the ELC 100 safety light curtains. A practical feature is the multilevel alignment display, which can be used to quickly position the devices in the optimum alignment. The bright LEDs are highly visible right from the transmitter. If alignment is not required, for example, with short distances, the costs can be reduced even further with the sliding blocks included in the scope of delivery. Connection via the 4-pin cable is also particularly easy. No configuration is required.
The ELC 100 safety light curtain housings are made entirely of metal. The raised side walls protect the front screen. "Due to intelligent beam evaluation with object tracking, the devices operate reliably without switching off, even in demanding environments with chips or sparks. The devices are also particularly resistant to shocks and vibrations," said a company spokesperson.
