ABB orion wet-090
ABB Orion WET-090 2TLA022313R0500 is an IP67, IP68 and IP69K protective tube for corresponding Orion1 Base safety light curtains with a 900 mm protective height, designed for demanding wet and contaminated industrial environments.
Why Choose the ABB Orion WET-090 Protective Tube?
The ABB Orion WET-090, part number 2TLA022313R0500, is a robust protective tube for corresponding ABB Orion1 Base safety light curtains with a 900 mm protective height, designed to provide enhanced environmental protection for optical safety devices operating in wet, dusty and demanding industrial environments.
As part of the ABB Orion WET range, the protective tube encloses the corresponding Orion1 Base light curtain within a transparent PMMA POLICRIL body. Its construction helps protect the safety device against water, dirt and contamination while maintaining the optical path required for normal light curtain operation.
The Orion WET-090 provides protection to IP67, IP68 and IP69K and has a tube wall thickness of 4 mm. The protective assembly has an overall specified length of 1120.7 mm, while ABB specifies a 10% reduction in the nominal operating distance of the installed light curtain for each protective tube used.
Key Advantages
- Purpose-designed protective tube for corresponding Orion1 Base safety light curtains.
- Suitable for Orion1 Base models with a 900 mm protective height.
- Provides enhanced IP67, IP68 and IP69K protection.
- Transparent PMMA POLICRIL construction protects the optical safety device while allowing beam transmission.
- Helps protect the enclosed light curtain against water, dirt and industrial contamination.
- Designed for demanding applications including wet and washdown environments.
Key Features
- ABB Orion WET-090 protective tube.
- Manufacturer part number 2TLA022313R0500.
- Designed for a corresponding Orion1 Base 900 mm safety light curtain.
- PMMA POLICRIL protective body.
- 4 mm tube thickness.
- IP67, IP68 and IP69K protection classes.
- No change to the effective aperture angle of the enclosed light guard.
- Nominal operating distance is reduced by 10% for each protective tube.
Enhanced Protection for Optical Safety Devices
Safety light curtains installed in environments exposed to water, dust or frequent cleaning can require additional mechanical and environmental protection. The ABB Orion WET system encloses a corresponding Orion1 Base device in a transparent protective tube while allowing its infrared safety beams to pass through the enclosure.
The Orion WET construction provides IP67, IP68 and IP69K protection and does not alter the effective aperture angle of the light guard. When designing the installation, the reduced optical range must be considered because ABB specifies that each Orion WET tube reduces the nominal operating distance by 10%.
Typical Applications
- Food and beverage production machinery.
- Washdown and wet industrial environments.
- Packaging and processing equipment.
- Industrial machinery exposed to water or contamination.
- Conveyor and material handling safety systems.
- Manufacturing equipment requiring enhanced light curtain protection.
- ABB Orion1 Base machine-safeguarding installations.
