The Pilz PSEN OP2H-S-30-105/1 is a robust safety light curtain designed to safeguard operators from hazardous machine movements while supporting high levels of productivity in automated environments. As part of the Pilz PSENopt family, it provides a flexible solution for access guarding, point-of-operation protection, and perimeter safety, combining reliable safety functions with straightforward system integration.

Operating at a supply voltage of 24 V DC, the PSEN OP2H-S-30-105/1 is well-suited to modern industrial control systems and can be seamlessly integrated into existing safety architectures. Its use of 950 nm infrared light beams ensures highly accurate and stable detection. This wavelength is optimised for reliable safeguarding, providing immunity to ambient light and reflective interference, ensuring dependable performance even in busy or variable lighting conditions.

Equipped with two OSSD (Output Signal Switching Device) outputs, this light curtain delivers fail-safe redundancy. If one channel develops a fault, the second remains active, maintaining the protective function without interruption. This redundancy is critical for compliance with stringent safety standards such as EN ISO 13849 and IEC 61496, ensuring that operators are continuously protected while machinery operates at high efficiency.

The 1050 mm protective field height makes this model particularly suitable for medium-to-large machinery openings, assembly cells, or production lines where taller coverage is necessary to prevent unsafe access. Its extended protection zone ensures operators cannot reach into hazardous areas without detection, reducing the risk of injury while allowing smooth and ergonomic workflows.

Built for durability, the PSEN OP2H-S-30-105/1 is capable of reliable operation within an ambient temperature range of 0 °C to +55 °C. This makes it suitable for use across a wide variety of industrial environments, from standard workshops to more demanding production settings. Its sturdy design and consistent performance contribute to system uptime and reduced maintenance requirements.

Applications for this safety light curtain include automotive assembly, packaging machinery, material handling systems, robotics, and general manufacturing. Its combination of compact design, reliable infrared safeguarding, and quick response time ensures dangerous machine functions are halted instantly when beams are interrupted, balancing productivity with operator safety.

In summary, the Pilz PSEN OP2H-S-30-105/1 safety light curtain offers an effective balance of coverage, reliability, and ease of integration. With its 24 V DC supply, dual OSSD redundancy, 950 nm infrared detection, and 1050 mm protective height, it is an excellent choice for safeguarding medium-to-large machinery access points in modern automated systems.
