Compact curtain protects smaller machines
The MicroSafe Flexible MCF4700 Series of safety light curtains can be mounted on small machines where a standard light curtain would be too large.
Inline connector cables allow mounting where standard connectors may not fit.
Response time as fast as 6.69ms and resolution of up to 12mm allow the MCF4700 to be mounted closer to danger points on a machine.
The possible configurations of the MCF4700 are endless.
The MCF4700 is ideal for applications with multiple access points that are not adjacent to one another, and is available in multiple segments using all possible combinations of the object resolutions for each segment.
The segments are connected with 150mm to 13m of interconnect cable.
The MCF4700 Series consists of at least two transmitter and receiver segments, a controller and interconnecting cables.
Standard segmented lengths from 3.9 to 71.0in are available (longer lengths may be available on request).
Low ESD models and a DeviceNet interface are available.
