Why Choose the ABB Orion1-4-30-150-E Safety Light Curtain?

The ABB Orion1-4-30-150-E (2TLA022303R0900) is a high-performance Type 4 safety light curtain designed for hand detection and contact-free safeguarding around hazardous industrial machinery. As part of the advanced ABB Orion1 Extended range, it is supplied as a transmitter and receiver pair and combines reliable optical protection with configurable safety functions for demanding machine applications.

With a 30 mm resolution, substantial 1500 mm protected height and operating range of 0.2–20 m, the Orion1-4-30-150-E provides flexible hand protection across large machine openings and production areas. Its optical system incorporates 80 beams and provides a response time of 20 ms without beam coding or 34 ms with beam coding.

The Orion1 Extended platform provides advanced safeguarding functions including cascading, muting, blanking, reduced resolution and beam coding. Combined with two failsafe OSSD outputs, a 24 V DC supply and IP65 protection, these capabilities make the Orion1-4-30-150-E suitable for automated machinery, material-handling systems and production lines requiring flexible access protection.

Advanced Hand Detection and Machine Safeguarding

The ABB Orion1-4-30-150-E creates an optical protective field between its transmitter and receiver. When a hand or another sufficiently large object interrupts this field, the failsafe OSSD outputs allow a correctly designed machine safety system to initiate the required safe response, providing contact-free access protection where repeated operator interaction with machinery is necessary.

The Orion1 Extended platform adds muting, blanking, cascading, reduced resolution and beam coding to conventional optical safeguarding. These capabilities allow machine builders and safety engineers to create sophisticated protection arrangements while the 30 mm resolution, 1500 mm protected height and 20 m maximum operating range provide extensive hand protection for large industrial installations.

Typical Applications

• Hand protection around hazardous machine areas.
• Large machine loading and unloading points.
• Production lines requiring muting functionality.
• Applications requiring cascaded safety light curtains.
• Packaging and processing machinery.
• Robotic and automated manufacturing cells.
• Material handling and conveyor systems.
• Industrial access and work-zone safeguarding.
