Note: This is standard non‑zero‑blind‑zone model. Blind zones present at top and bottom ends of the sensor.
Standard VS Zero‑Blind‑Zone Version Photoelectric Light Curtain
✅ Choose this standard Type 4 model (with blind zones), if: • Your mechanical layout allows reserved blind‑zone space at top and bottom of the guarded area • You need cost‑optimized Type 4 machine safety protection • Guarded zone does not require detection coverage all‑the‑way to both physical ends of sensor bars • General‑purpose automation equipment, conveyor guarding, semi‑automatic press machines
⚠️ Select Garantta zero‑blind‑zone safety light curtain, if: • You require full detection coverage reaching the very top and bottom edge of sensor housing • No physical space can be reserved for blind‑zone offset during machine installation • Machinery design demands complete end‑to‑end sensing without undetected dead zones Important installation reminder: When deploying this standard safety light curtain, please offset physical hazards away from the top‑end and bottom‑end blind zones according to local machine‑safety regulations.
Industrial Applications
Our 35×35 mm Type 4 standard Photoelectric Light Curtain is widely adopted for machine‑safety guarding across multiple industries: • Automatic assembly machinery • Press & stamping equipment • Conveyor line access protection • Packaging & processing machines • Material‑handling automation • Wood‑working, plastic‑processing machinery • General‑purpose OEM machine builder projects across Europe, North America, Latin‑America factories
