Key Features
High Safety Integrity: Meets Type 4 / Category 4 (PL e according to ISO 13849-1, SIL 3 according to IEC 62061) standards, providing the highest level of protection against failure.

Compact Design: The slim housing allows for easy integration into machinery with limited space.

Extended Range: Offers a long protective field range (effective scanning range) of up to 14 meters, suitable for large-scale applications.

Flexible Resolution: The 14 mm beam resolution (spacing between beams) is optimal for finger and hand detection, preventing access to danger zones.

Muting Function: Supports advanced muting capabilities (typically requires additional sensors and a controller). This allows for the temporary, safe interruption of the protective field to permit material flow while still ensuring personnel safety.

Blanking Function: Features Fixed Blanking and/or Floating Blanking. This allows specific beams to be selectively disabled to accommodate for fixed obstructions (like machine supports) or moving parts within the protective field without compromising overall safety.

Easy Alignment: Integrated alignment LEDs on both the transmitter and receiver units simplify installation and commissioning.

Robust Construction: Built to withstand harsh industrial environments with resistance to vibration, dust, and ambient light interference.
