With PSENopt II lockout, a restart interlock is now available for the PSENopt II light curtain range from Pilz. This prevents the machine from restarting unintentionally, during maintenance work within danger zones for example. There is no need for additional safety sensors, immediately making a visual inspection of the danger point superfluous. So PSENopt II lockout represents not only a safe but also an economical, easy-to-use solution to prevent an unintended restart.
The accessory solution PSENopt II lockout from the robust PSENopt II light curtain range includes a fixing device and corresponding swivel arm.
Managing unintended restart more efficiently
PSENopt II lockout can be assembled quickly: The fixing device is simply attached to the side of the light curtain. There is nothing complicated about the handling either: the swivel arm can be folded over in front of the light curtain’s field of vision as soon as the danger zone is accessed, for maintenance work for example. Additional safety is provided by a lock, which stops anyone readjusting the swivel arm. As its field of vision is forcibly interrupted, the light curtain no longer has an unobstructed view, so preventing a restart. This simple handling saves users time, which increases the availability of their plant or machine.
