Why Choose the ABB ABB orion1-4-30-015-b 2TLA022302R0000 Safety Light Curtain?
The ABB ABB orion1-4-30-015-b 2TLA022302R0000 is a compact Type 4 safety light curtain transmitter and receiver set designed for reliable hand detection around hazardous machinery and automated equipment. Part of the ABB Orion1 Base series, this model combines a 30 mm resolution with a 150 mm protected height for non-contact machine guarding applications.
The Orion1-4-30-015-B creates an optical protective field between its transmitter and receiver. Interruption of this field can be detected by the machine safety system so that hazardous movement can be stopped. Its 0.2–19 m operating range provides considerable flexibility when positioning the two light curtain units around machinery and work areas.
With its compact dimensions and hand-detection resolution, this Orion1 Base light curtain is particularly suited to machine openings and access points where operators require frequent interaction with equipment. The complete transmitter and receiver set has a product height of approximately 233 mm, width of 65 mm and depth of 37 mm.

Reliable Hand Detection for Industrial Machinery
Safety light curtains provide non-contact personnel protection by establishing an optical sensing field around hazardous machinery. If a hand or other object of sufficient size interrupts the protective field, the light curtain signals the associated machine safety system, allowing hazardous movement to be stopped in accordance with the overall machine safety design.
The ABB Orion1 Base range is designed for straightforward integration into industrial machinery where repeated access to a hazardous area is necessary. The 30 mm resolution of the Orion1-4-30-015-B is optimised for hand detection, while its long operating range enables the transmitter and receiver to be installed across both compact and comparatively wide machine openings.
Typical Applications
- Machine access and hazardous-area guarding.
- Manually serviced production machinery.
- Automated assembly and manufacturing equipment.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Robotic and automated production cells.
