SICK M40E Series Light Curtain Receiver, 2 Beam(s), 500mm Resolution

The M4000 Standard multiple light beam safety device is the solution for one-sided or multi-sided access protection. The M4000’s large scanning range and extensive functions provide efficient access protection and maximum reliability. The functions are easy to understand and are set via the configuration keys located directly on the device. Integrated functions and status information enable quick commissioning and minimize machine downtime.

The modular concept enables a high level of machine safety since device properties can be adapted to meet specific application requirements. Separate deflection mirrors are a cost effective way to flexibly configure protective fields. In addition, sens:Control devices, accessories, and services complete the product offering and form packaged solutions designed specifically for industrial environments.
