Why Choose the ABB Orion1-4-14-030-B 2TLA022300R0100 Safety Light Curtain?
The ABB Orion1-4-14-030-B 2TLA022300R0100 is a Type 4 safety light curtain from the ABB Jokab Safety Orion1 Base range, supplied as a complete transmitter and receiver pair. Designed for non-contact safeguarding of hazardous machinery, it creates an optical protective field that detects access to a dangerous area without requiring a physical barrier across the monitored opening.
This model provides 14 mm finger detection resolution across a 300 mm protected height. Its 32 optical beams and operating range of 0.2 to 6 m make it particularly suitable for safeguarding machine openings where frequent operator access is required while maintaining fine finger detection.
The Orion1-4-14-030-B provides a fast 15 ms response time and is designed for integration into industrial machine safety systems. Its compact profile and Type 4 safety architecture make it a dependable choice for machine builders and safety engineers requiring high-performance optical protection close to hazardous operating zones.

Reliable Finger Detection for Hazardous Machine Areas
The Orion1 Base transmitter projects an array of optical beams towards the corresponding receiver, creating a continuously monitored protective field across the machine opening. If a finger or another object large enough to meet the 14 mm detection resolution interrupts the field, the safety light curtain changes its safety output state so the connected machine safety system can initiate the required protective response.
With 32 beams, a 300 mm protected height and a 15 ms response time, the Orion1-4-14-030-B is particularly suited to machinery requiring frequent access close to a hazardous operating zone. Correct positioning and safety distance must be determined from the machine risk assessment, stopping performance and applicable machine safety standards.
Typical Applications
- Finger protection at hazardous machine openings.
- Automated assembly and production machinery.
- Presses and machine-tool access points.
- Packaging and processing equipment.
- Robotic and automated manufacturing cells.
- Work-zone and access protection around industrial machinery.
