The B-Series Safety Light Curtains are full-featured, microprocessor-controlled units. Special capabilities include beam blanking and a flexible interface that is compatible with common safety relay units, controllers (SIM), and fail-safe PLC’s. A wide range of sizes and resolutions are available. The B-Series emitter and receiver pair, by themselves, constitutes a complete light curtain system, which provides two redundant solid state PNP type outputs and is a type 4 safety device in accordance with EN 61496-1. These outputs can be interfaced directly into the machine control circuit,...

B-SERIES PERIMETER GUARDS Tapeswitch Type B2, B3, & B4 Perimeter Guards are designed for safety and security applications. They are used to protect hazardous areas such as automated work cells and to monitor access or traffic in secure locations. The difference between models is the beam spacing. These photoelectric devices provide the same high level category 4 safety integrity as the B-Series light curtains. To simplify installation, the emitter and receiver pair make up a self-contained system which is capable of safety functions without additional equipment. Features & Benefits...

B-SERIES MASTER/SLAVE GUARDS The B-Series master/slave system is a cascading light curtain guarding system, which offers a solution for those applications that require detection on two planes from one point. It consists of a maximum of two slave units connected to either a basic or multi-beam master system, which are offered in defined detection ranges in 14 mm (24 beams per 200 mm curtain), 30 mm (12 beams per 200 mm curtain), or 70 mm (4 beams per 200 mm curtain) in sizes from 200 -1800 mm increments. Master/slave units can be configured to a 144 beam maximum. Other features include beam...

HARD-GUARD LIGHT CURTAINS The Hard-Guard Light Curtain is designed for harsh industrial applications. It is available in either a tough transparent acrylic housing or a rugged aluminum enclosure. Protected against water (including wash down), dust, dirt, oil, and many solvents, it is ideal for heavy industrial applications, food processing, or outdoor safety and security systems. The Hard-Guard system includes a full featured light curtain and a matching controller. It easily interfaces with a wide range of machine or security controls. Consult factory application engineer for more...

Cable Assemblies Cable assemblies are used to connect the B-Series sensing units to a controller or machine. The emitter has a 5 conductor cable and the receiver has an 8 conductor cable. One end of each cable has a keyed quick-disconnect connector and the other end is unterminated. The cables are IP68 rated, and UL and CSA recognized. Order cables separately. Cable Assemblies P/N Cable Assemblies P/N Mounting Brackets Mounting brackets are supplied with the B-Series sensing units. The brackets can be oriented to accommodate most installation requirements. They are designed to fit...

SAFETY INTERFACE MODULES (SIM) All Tapeswitch safety interface controllers (SIM) are compatible with the B-Series light curtains. The emitter and receiver pair, by themselves, constitutes a complete light curtain system, which provides two redundant solid state PNP outputs. Consult factory for correct series for your application. These outputs can be interfaced directly into a machine control circuit, provided that the circuitry is compatible with PNP type outputs supplied from the light curtain’s, (i.e. safety relays, emergency stop relay packages, fail-safe PLC’s, etc.) Care should be...

SAFETY INTERFACE MODULES (SIM) BSRUA-2 Interface Controller (Part No. 0951) The BSRUA-2 Controller is a DIN rail mount unit capable of interfacing up to two light Curtain sensing units. It will accept an input power source of 110/240 VAC or 24 VDC and provides the necessary power to the light curtain sensing unit emitter and receiver. The two safety outputs follow the state of the light curtain and AUTOMATICALLY resume the “on” state once an obstruction is removed. There is no operator intervention required and no operator power up sequence necessary. The unit contains status and diagnostic...
