Description:

The light curtain is a vital safety device designed for sectional industrial doors, serving to increase protection in environments where these large, motorized access points are used regularly. Primarily used in commercial, industrial and warehouse environments, the light curtain plays a vital role in preventing accidents and injuries, contributing to a safer workplace.

A light barrier works similar to an invisible safety barrier and consists of a series of photoelectric beams projected across the door opening. These beams create an intangible "curtain" that, when not interrupted, allows the gate to function as usual. However, if anything or anyone were to interrupt the beams passing through the opening, the light curtain would immediately send a signal to the door control system, prompting it tostop or reverse the door's movement to prevent possible damage.
