ABB orion wet-180
ABB Orion WET-180 2TLA022313R1100 is an IP67, IP68 and IP69K protective tube designed for corresponding 1800 mm ABB Orion1 Base safety light curtains in demanding industrial environments.
Why Choose the ABB Orion WET-180 Protective Tube?
The ABB Orion WET-180, ordering code 2TLA022313R1100, is a robust protective tube for ABB Orion1 Base safety light curtains with a protected height of 1800 mm. As part of the ABB Orion machine safety accessory range, it provides additional environmental protection for optical safety devices installed in demanding industrial applications.
The Orion WET range is designed to enclose compatible Orion safety light curtains where enhanced protection against water, dust and demanding washdown conditions is required. Its transparent protective body allows the safety light curtain's optical beams to operate through the enclosure while providing an additional physical barrier around the sensor.
The Orion WET-180 is specifically designed for corresponding 1800 mm Orion1 Base safety light curtains. It has a protective tube length of approximately 2020.8 mm, with overall product dimensions of approximately 2085 × 71 × 89 mm. The Orion WET series provides IP67, IP68 and IP69K protection and uses a robust 4 mm PMMA POLICRIL protective body.

Enhanced Protection for ABB Orion1 Safety Light Curtains
Safety light curtains installed in wet, dusty or frequently cleaned industrial environments can require additional protection beyond their standard sensor housing. The ABB Orion WET system encloses a compatible Orion1 Base safety light curtain inside a transparent protective tube, providing enhanced resistance to environmental exposure while maintaining the optical machine safety function.
With IP67, IP68 and IP69K protection, the Orion WET-180 is particularly suitable for applications where machinery may be exposed to water or intensive cleaning processes. The optical characteristics of the protective material are designed for Orion safety applications, with no Effective Aperture Angle aberration and an operating distance reduction of approximately 10% for each protective tube used.
Typical Applications
- ABB Orion1 Base safety light curtain installations.
- Wet and washdown industrial environments.
- Food and beverage production machinery.
- Packaging and processing equipment.
- Industrial machinery exposed to water, dust or contaminants.
- Machine guarding applications requiring enhanced environmental protection.
