Why Choose the ABB Orion WET-045 Protective Tube?

The ABB Orion WET-045, part number 2TLA022313R0200, is a robust protective tube for ABB Orion1 Base safety light curtains. Designed for the corresponding Orion1 Base model with a 450 mm protective height, it provides additional environmental protection for optical safety equipment installed in demanding industrial applications.

As part of the ABB Orion WET protective tube range, the Orion WET-045 features a transparent PMMA POLICRIL body with a wall thickness of 4 mm. Its protective construction provides IP67, IP68 and IP69K protection, making it particularly suitable for machinery exposed to moisture, water, dirt and intensive washdown procedures.

The Orion WET-045 has a specified tube length of 670.8 mm and is engineered to maintain the optical functionality of the enclosed Orion1 Base light curtain. ABB specifies a 10% operating-distance reduction factor for each protective tube, while the Effective Aperture Angle remains unaffected, allowing reliable integration into industrial machine-safety systems.

Key Advantages

  • Purpose-designed protective tube for corresponding ABB Orion1 Base safety light curtains.
  • Suitable for an Orion1 Base with 450 mm protective height.
  • High environmental protection with IP67, IP68 and IP69K ratings.
  • Transparent PMMA POLICRIL construction protects the safety device while maintaining optical operation.
  • Suitable for demanding wet, dusty and washdown industrial environments.
  • Protective tube does not alter the light curtain's Effective Aperture Angle.

Reliable Protection for Safety Light Curtains

Safety light curtains depend on a clear optical path to detect access to hazardous machine areas. In production environments exposed to moisture, dirt or intensive cleaning, a purpose-designed protective enclosure helps isolate the safety device from environmental contaminants while allowing its optical safety function to continue operating correctly.

The ABB Orion WET range provides this additional protection for compatible Orion1 Base light curtains. The transparent PMMA POLICRIL tube combines mechanical protection with IP67, IP68 and IP69K environmental protection, while the design does not alter the Effective Aperture Angle. When configuring the safety system, the specified 10% reduction in operating distance for each tube should be taken into account.

Typical Applications

  • Food and beverage processing machinery.
  • Washdown production and packaging environments.
  • Filling, bottling and processing machinery.
  • Industrial manufacturing and automated production equipment.
  • Machine guarding in wet, dusty or contaminated areas.
  • Safety installations using compatible ABB Orion1 Base light curtains.
