PERMANENT AUTOCONTROL
PRODUCT ADVANTAGES
IP65 AND IP67 PROTECTION AND CE & TÜV CERTIFIED
NON-CONTACT OPERATING PRINCIPLES
EXCELLENT SAFETY RATING TO EN/ISO 13849-1 CAT. 4 PL 2
AOPD (ACTIVE OPTOELECTRONIC PROTECTIVE DEVICE) WITH
ALUMINIUM HOUSING AND M12 CABLE CONNECTOR
A company uses Contrinex’s Safetinex access control barriers
to protect the entrance to its automated stock handling area.
Safetinex access control barriers detect any operator entering
the area and stop the leather stock moving at high speed in
the automated handling system. Furthermore, damage to
company vehicles and the stock handling installation itself is
also avoided.
CUSTOMER APPLICATION
The company uses an automated stock handling system. The
items are handled at high speed and present a certain danger
to operators interacting with the system as well as to factory
vehicles approaching any moving parts.
Access to the area therefore needs to be protected, while at
the same time the area must remain easily accessible. The
protection system must not obstruct traffic or slow down
operations unnecessarily. It must therefore be largely hands-
free and of minimum complexity to operate. This application
meets the criteria for active opto-electric protection.
CUSTOMER SOLUTION
Safetinex YCA access control barriers satisfy all the demands of
the application. To eliminate the possibility of injury to workers
or damage to vehicles entering the stock handling area, the
customer has fitted two pairs of YCA-50#4-4400-G012 access
control barriers with a protective height of 1232 mm, one pair
at each access point.
A basic YRB-0131-241 safety relay was fitted as the system
switching device in manual restart mode. Hence, any person
or vehicle intercepting the light beams will stop the dangerous
movement of the stock handling system. The reliability of this
protection system is guaranteed by a fail-safe electronic
design with permanent autocontrol.
ACCESS GUARDING (300 / 400 / 500MM) TYPE 4 SAFETY LIGHT CURTAINS ARE IDEAL FOR
ACCESS CONTROL AND PERIMETER GUARDING ON APPLICATIONS LIKE MACHINE TOOLS, ROBOTS,
HYDRAULIC PRESSES, AUTOMATED STOCK MANAGEMENT, AND CONVERTING MACHINES.
SAFETY LIGHT CURTAINS - ACCESS CONTROL
TYPE 4 SAFETY LIGHT CURTAINS - ACCESS & PERIMETER GUARDS
Offering a choice of beam gaps of 300, 400 or 500 mm (in 3 to 6 beams) with the highest protection category (Type 4), these light
curtains are ideal for access control and perimeter guarding for example on machine tools, robots, hydraulic presses, automated stock
management, converting machines etc.
Part of Contrinex’s BASIC range, they offer a robust extruded housing (42 x 48mm), are TÜV, CE and UL-certified according to IEC
61496‑1. They feature permanent autocontrol and low power consumption with easy and low-cost installation provided by their use of
an integral 5-pin M12 connector or pigtail.
