SELECTION GUIDE
Muting lamps integrated in the light curtains, or installed external to them, are designed to flash as long as the muting is active.
To maintain the safety of the application, light curtains can be configured to perform the muting function only on the
number of beams needed for the passage of the material (
Partial Muting
), keeping the others active.
11. Override
Override function is a mute dependent bypass of the light curtain, that can be provided for some applications (for
example conveyor and packaging machinery) in order to clear a blockage in the area of the machine where sensors are
located. The activation of the bypass function should be possible for a limited amount of time, only when at least one
muting sensor is activated, and will require the use of a device located where operator can see the point of hazard.
