Keyence PJ-V Series Expandable Modular Plug-n-Play Safety Light Curtain System Simple Type: Safety Light Curtain

The PJ-V Series features KEYENCE’s unique optical axis expansion system (Safety Plus System). The optimal detection zone can be selected in 80-mm 3.15" increments. The number of optical axes can be increased or decreased as equipment or machinery changes. The detection area ranges from 140 to 1260 mm 5.51" to 49.61". Three types of expansion units are available for designing the detection area to fit your application. Long-operating range of up to 7 m 23.0'. The sufficient operating range provides reliable guarding for a widevariety of equipment or machinery ranging from a compact type to a large-scale type. Slim and tough sensor head for use in harsh environments. Although the housing is very slim, the sensor head provides ultra-high rigidity. Metal is used for the outer housing, inner housing, and locking mechanism components to provide strength and allow the sensor head to endure vibration or impact. LED bar indicator simplifies optical alignment. The number of lit LEDs on the bar varies depending on the number of clear optical axes. Anyone can easily perform optical alignment with no assistance. In addition, if a fault occurs, the indicators inform the operator of the fault status instantly. Sub-controller enables two-head operation. The sub-controller enables two sensor heads to be used without extra wiring. When a sub-controller is connected to the main controller, the mutual interference suppression function works automatically. Space-saving safety controller. The controller features fault detection circuits plus three safety relays. The controller is highly compact for easy mounting to a DIN rail.
