Why Choose the ABB Orion1-4-14-045-E 2TLA022301R0200 Safety Light Curtain?
The ABB Orion1-4-14-045-E 2TLA022301R0200 is an advanced Type 4 safety light curtain designed for finger detection and non-contact protection around hazardous industrial machinery. As part of the ABB Orion1 Extended safety light curtain series, it combines a transmitter and receiver with a fine 14 mm resolution, providing reliable protection where operators require frequent access close to hazardous machine areas.
This Orion1 Extended model provides a 450 mm protected height and an operating range of 0.2–7 m. Its 14 mm resolution is designed for finger detection, making it particularly suitable for point-of-operation safeguarding on manually serviced machines, assembly equipment, production machinery and other applications requiring close-proximity protection.
The Orion1-4-14-045-E combines compact construction with advanced functionality including cascading, muting and blanking. With a 17 ms response time and Type 4 classification, it provides machine builders and automation engineers with a versatile safety solution for demanding industrial applications.

Advanced Non-Contact Protection for Industrial Machinery
Safety light curtains such as the ABB Orion1 create an optical protective field between a transmitter and receiver. When a finger, hand or other object interrupts this field, the safety outputs can signal the machine safety control system to initiate the required safe response. This enables frequent access to machinery without requiring a physical guard to be opened and closed during every operating cycle.
The Orion1 Extended series adds functionality for more demanding machine safety installations. Cascading allows compatible safety light curtains to form more extensive protective arrangements, while muting and blanking provide additional flexibility for applications involving material movement or intentionally obstructed areas of the protective field.
Typical Applications
- Point-of-operation protection on industrial machinery.
- Finger detection around hazardous machine areas.
- Production and assembly machinery.
- Packaging and processing equipment.
- Automated manufacturing cells.
- Machine loading and unloading stations.
- Applications requiring muting, blanking or cascading.
- OEM machinery and industrial automation safety systems.
