Mechan Controls - MLG/70/1800, Light Curtains Receiver & Transmitter, 70mm/1800mm, 24VDC, Metal, M12

The MLG-Series by Mechan Controls are robust, type 4 light curtains designed for ON/OFF detection.
Transmitter and Receiver come together as a pair and are connected via 14mm resolution, infrared beams.
This provides a reliable and cost-effective access protection for hazardous areas.

The system works by creating an infrared detection zone across the danger area such that any intrusion into the zone results in a stop signal being sent to the machine and the danger being removed.
Everything designed AND made in the UK.
