Why Choose the ABB Orion1-4-14-150-B 2TLA022300R0900 Safety Light Curtain?

The ABB Orion1-4-14-150-B 2TLA022300R0900 is a Type 4 safety light curtain from the ABB Jokab Safety Orion1 Base range, supplied as a complete transmitter and receiver pair. Designed for non-contact safeguarding of hazardous machinery, it creates an optical protective field that detects access to dangerous areas while allowing operators to interact efficiently with production equipment.

This model provides a fine 14 mm finger detection resolution across a substantial 1500 mm protected height. With 160 optical beams and an operating range of 0.2 to 6 m, it is particularly suited to larger machine openings where fine detection capability is required over an extended vertical area.

The Orion1-4-14-150-B has a specified 43 ms response time and is engineered as Type 4 electro-sensitive protective equipment. Its combination of tall protective coverage, finger detection and compact construction makes it a practical safeguarding solution for automated machinery, manufacturing cells and production equipment requiring frequent operator access.

Key Advantages

• 14 mm resolution provides fine finger detection for machine safeguarding applications.
• Large 1500 mm protected height provides extensive coverage of tall machine openings.
• 160 optical beams create a closely spaced protective field across the monitored area.
• Wide 0.2 to 6 m operating range provides flexible transmitter-to-receiver positioning.
• Type 4 safety architecture supports demanding industrial machine safety applications.
• Non-contact protection enables frequent access without manually opening a physical guard.
• Supplied as a complete transmitter and receiver set for straightforward specification.

Key Features

• ABB Jokab Safety Orion1 Base series.
• Type 4 safety light curtain.
• 14 mm finger resolution.
• 1500 mm protected height.
• 160 optical beams.
• 0.2 to 6 m operating range.
• 43 ms response time.
• Designed for non-contact machine safeguarding.
• Suitable for applications requiring repeated access to hazardous machine areas.
• Can be installed for vertical guarding or horizontal area protection where appropriate to the risk assessment.
• Compact Orion1 Base profile simplifies integration around machinery.
• Supplied as transmitter + receiver.

Reliable Finger Detection Across Tall Machine Openings

The Orion1 Base transmitter projects an array of optical beams towards the corresponding receiver, forming a continuously monitored protective field across the hazardous opening. When a finger, hand or other object sufficient to interrupt the 14 mm resolution field enters the protected area, the light curtain signals the machine safety system so that the required protective response can be initiated.

With 160 beams covering a 1500 mm protected height, the Orion1-4-14-150-B provides extensive vertical coverage while retaining fine finger detection. This makes it particularly useful where operators require regular access close to hazardous machinery. Correct positioning and minimum safety distance must be established from the machine stopping performance, application risk assessment and applicable machinery safety standards.

Typical Applications

• Finger protection across tall hazardous machine openings.
• Automated assembly and production machinery.
• Robotic and automated manufacturing cells.
• Presses and machine-tool access points.
• Packaging and processing machinery.
• Work-zone and access protection requiring frequent operator interaction.
