Contrinex Extended-Protection Safety Light Curtains from AutomationDirect

September 8, 2020

AutomationDirect has added new Contrinex slim-profile safety light curtains, used for human protection and product/machine safety, to its extensive Safety Products lineup.

The new Contrinex 14mm and 30mm beam resolution extended-protection, slim-profile safety light curtains eliminate blind spots (the height of the light curtain is the height of the protected area) and the slim low profile makes safety curtain installation inside the machine application easier. These new slim light curtains can also be wirelessly configured through Bluetooth®.

14mm resolution light curtains provide finger safe protection and 30mm resolution curtains offer hand safe protection. Protection heights are 170mm to 1290mm (6.7 to 50.8 in) for the 14mm resolution curtains and 170 to 1610 mm (6.7 to 63.4 in) for the 30mm curtains. Operating ranges are 0.25 to 5 m (0.82 to 16.4 ft). All safety light curtains have Type 4 and Cat 4 PL e safety ratings and are IP65 rated.

Extended-protection, slim-profile safety light curtain sets from AutomationDirect start at $495.00 and have a 1-year warranty.
