1053430

Overview

The SICK 1053430 is a safety light curtain system component designed for industrial personnel protection. It functions as a receiver unit within a safety light curtain array, utilizing infrared technology to create a protective field. The device detects interruptions in the light beam caused by objects or personnel entering the hazardous area. It operates with high resolution and response times suitable for machine safeguarding applications. The unit features robust housing for industrial environments and integrates with compatible controllers for safe state signaling.

Feature Summary

• Infrared optical sensing technology for reliable object detection
• Integrated receiver module for safety light curtain arrays
• Robust industrial housing design for harsh environments
• Direct interface with compatible safety controllers

Applications

• Machine guarding for press brakes
• Protection zones for injection molding machines
• Safety barriers for robotic work cells
• Personnel protection at automated assembly stations

Procurement Notes

Verify compatibility with existing SICK safety light curtain controllers and emitter units before procurement. Confirm required resolution and protective field height specifications match the application safety requirements. Ensure the part number corresponds to the correct receiver variant for the specific series. Check for any necessary mounting accessories or cables not included in the base unit package.

Selection Notes

Select this receiver based on its compatibility with the specific SICK safety light curtain series already installed or planned. Consider the required resolution and field height for the intended hazard zone. Evaluate environmental conditions such as ambient light interference or potential contamination. Ensure the control system supports the communication protocol of the receiver unit for proper integration.

Part Context

This component belongs to the SICK safety light curtain product family, which provides non-contact protective equipment for machinery. These systems are critical for complying with international safety standards such as ISO 13849 and IEC 62061. The receiver works in tandem with emitters to establish a light grid that monitors access to dangerous areas.

Replacement Considerations

Only use SICK-approved replacement parts to maintain safety certification validity. Verify that the substitute receiver matches the electrical and mechanical specifications of the original unit. Consult SICK technical documentation for cross-reference lists to ensure functional equivalence.
