Why Choose the ABB Orion WET-K080 Protective Tube?

The ABB Orion WET-K080, part number 2TLA022313R3100, is a robust protective tube for corresponding ABB Orion2 optical safety devices with an 800 mm protected height, designed to provide enhanced environmental protection for safety light grids installed in wet, dusty or demanding industrial environments.

As part of the ABB Orion WET range, the WET-K080 encloses the corresponding Orion2 safety device within a transparent PMMA POLICRIL protective body. This construction helps protect the optical safety equipment against water and contamination while allowing its infrared protective beams to operate through the enclosure.

The Orion WET-K080 provides IP67, IP68 and IP69K protection, features a 4 mm thick protective body and has a specified tube length of 1108 mm. ABB specifies a 10% reduction in nominal operating distance for each Orion WET protective tube placed in the optical path.

Key Advantages

  • Purpose-designed protective tube for corresponding ABB Orion2 safety devices.
  • Suitable for corresponding Orion2 devices with an 800 mm protected height.
  • Provides enhanced IP67, IP68 and IP69K environmental protection.
  • Transparent PMMA POLICRIL construction protects the optical device while permitting beam transmission.
  • Helps protect Orion2 safety equipment against water, dirt and industrial contamination.
  • Suitable for demanding industrial, wet and washdown environments.

Enhanced Protection for Orion2 Optical Safety Devices

Optical safety devices installed in areas exposed to water, dust, contamination or intensive cleaning can require additional environmental protection. The ABB Orion WET system encloses the corresponding Orion2 device within a transparent protective tube, helping isolate the safety equipment from demanding conditions while preserving transmission of its protective infrared beams.

The Orion WET-K080 provides IP67, IP68 and IP69K protection and introduces no Effective Aperture Angle aberration. When configuring the safeguarding system, the optical range must be considered because ABB specifies that each protective tube reduces the nominal operating distance by 10%.

Typical Applications

  • ABB Orion2 optical safety installations.
  • Food and beverage production machinery.
  • Wet and washdown industrial environments.
  • Packaging and processing equipment.
  • Machinery exposed to water, dust or industrial contamination.
  • Conveyor and material handling safety systems.
  • Industrial machine guarding requiring enhanced optical device protection.
