Application
The SLP8-2-A and SLP8-2-M devices can be used to set up dual-beam access protection with a fixed beam gap of 500 mm in accordance with EN 999. The SLP8-2-A profile comprises a light source and a light receiver (active). This device must be connected to the SLVA-4K+ and SLVA-8K evaluation units or to SB4-series switching devices. The SLP8-2-A cannot be operated without an evaluation unit. The SLP8-2-M profile includes two reflecting mirrors arranged in such a way that the light beam emitted from the transmitter on the SLP8-2-A is returned at a distance of 500 mm and is picked up by the receiver on the SLP8-2-A.

This safety thru-beam sensor system may only be used in accordance with its intended purpose as an active opto-electronic protective device (AOPD) for securing hazardous areas. If used for any other purpose, the intended function of the system cannot be guaranteed. The applicable safety regulations, standards and provisions must be observed when operating the system, and the specific requirements of the application in question must be taken into consideration.
