Schmersal Light Curtain Receiver 48 Beams 14 mm Resolution 24V DC 10ms Response Time SLC440COM

Schmersal SLC440COM-R-0490-14 Light Curtain Receiver is a robust safety device designed to protect personnel working near hazardous machinery. The receiver forms part of the SLC440COM series and works with a sender module to establish a sensitive light curtain barrier, which stops equipment operation if crossed, thereby preventing injuries.

This device features 48 beams with a fine 14 mm resolution, enabling detection of small body parts such as fingers, making it suitable for highly secure environments with stringent safety requirements. It provides a protective height of 490mm and supports a maximum protective width of 7 meters, accommodating setups ranging from compact to large-scale industrial workstations.

Operating at a supply voltage of 24V DC, the unit delivers a rapid maximum response time of 10 milliseconds for quick disconnection of machinery in hazardous events. Its aluminium housing ensures durability and corrosion resistance even in damp or challenging industrial conditions, further enhanced by an IP67 rating which guarantees dust tightness and water protection up to 1 meter immersion for 30 minutes.

The receiver includes two built-in safety contacts to allow real-time diagnostic feedback to connected control devices, facilitating easy monitoring and troubleshooting to maintain operational integrity and reduce downtime.
