Mirror reflection safety protection
The 8K3/8K4 Series safety light guard comprises of the Transmitter (Tx) and the Receiver (Rx) units with optional bolt on mute modules. An interface cable connects the Transmitter to the Receiver unit and the User cable provides the interface to the machine control panel. The system provides a fully integrated solution including cross-beam and parallel beam muting options all housed in a robust IP66 enclosure for harsh wet environments. Two, three and four beam models for safeguarding around the perimeter of a machine are included in the model range. These models have a scanning range of 4 - 40m.
