Why Choose the ABB Orion WET-150 Protective Tube?

The ABB Orion WET-150, part number 2TLA022313R0900, is a purpose-designed protective tube for ABB Orion1 Base safety light curtains. It is intended for the corresponding Orion1 Base model with a 1500 mm protective height, providing additional environmental protection for optical safety equipment used around industrial machinery and automated production systems.

As part of the ABB Orion WET protective tube range, the Orion WET-150 features a transparent PMMA POLICRIL body with a thickness of 4 mm. The protective construction is rated to IP67, IP68 and IP69K, making it particularly useful where compatible safety light curtains may be exposed to moisture, water, contamination or demanding washdown procedures.

The Orion WET-150 has a specified tube length of 1720.8 mm and is designed to accommodate the corresponding 1500 mm Orion1 Base light curtain. ABB specifies a 10% operating-distance reduction factor for each protective tube, while the Effective Aperture Angle is unaffected, helping system designers integrate environmental protection without compromising the intended safety-system geometry.

Reliable Protection for Safety Light Curtains

Safety light curtains rely on a clear optical path between their transmitting and receiving elements to detect access to hazardous machine areas. In installations exposed to moisture, contamination or intensive cleaning, a compatible protective enclosure can provide an additional barrier between the safety device and the surrounding environment while maintaining its optical function.

The ABB Orion WET range is engineered specifically for this requirement. The transparent PMMA POLICRIL construction of the Orion WET-150 combines physical protection with IP67, IP68 and IP69K environmental protection. When configuring the safety system, the specified 10% reduction in operating distance for each protective tube should be considered to ensure the installation operates within the required detection range.

Typical Applications

  • Food and beverage processing machinery.
  • Washdown production and packaging environments.
  • Filling, bottling and processing equipment.
  • Industrial manufacturing and automated production lines.
  • Machine guarding in wet or contaminated environments.
  • Safety installations using compatible 1500 mm ABB Orion1 Base light curtains.
