Use this light beam receiver from Schmersal to ensure the safe operation of your industrial equipment. The unit works with a transmitter to create a continuous light barrier in hazardous areas on your machine. It sends a stop signal when the light beam is broken by an object, preventing contact with the moving parts of your system. The receiver is housed in a durable aluminium enclosure for resistance to corrosion and impact, making it suitable for use in harsh industrial environments.
