Why Choose the ABB Orion1-4-30-105-B 2TLA022302R0600 Safety Light Curtain?
The ABB Orion1-4-30-105-B 2TLA022302R0600 is a Type 4 safety light curtain designed for hand detection and non-contact protection around hazardous industrial machinery. Part of the ABB Orion1 Base range, it combines a transmitter and receiver with a 30 mm resolution, providing straightforward optical safeguarding for machines where operators require frequent access.
This Orion1 Base model provides a 1050 mm protected height using 56 optical beams and offers an operating range of 0.2–19 m. Its 30 mm resolution is intended for hand detection, making the light curtain suitable for protecting machine openings, points of operation and other hazardous areas where reliable non-contact detection is required.
With a specified 19 ms response time, two secure PNP OSSD semiconductor outputs and a Type 4 classification according to IEC 61496-1, the Orion1-4-30-105-B provides dependable protective-field monitoring for demanding machinery applications. Its long sensing range, M12 connection and IP65 protection rating support flexible installation in industrial environments.

Reliable Hand Detection for Industrial Machine Safety
Safety light curtains such as the ABB Orion1 create an optical protective field between a transmitter and receiver. If a hand, arm or other sufficiently large object interrupts this field, the OSSD safety outputs change state so that the connected machine safety system can initiate the required safe response. This allows regular operator access without requiring a physical guard to be opened and closed during every machine cycle.
The 30 mm resolution of the Orion1-4-30-105-B is intended for hand detection, while its substantial 0.2–19 m sensing range provides considerable installation flexibility. Orion1 Base light curtains can be positioned close to hazardous machine zones for repeated access applications or installed horizontally to help define and protect hazardous work areas.
Typical Applications
- Hand detection around hazardous industrial machinery.
- Point-of-operation machine protection.
- Production and assembly machinery.
- Packaging and processing equipment.
- Automated manufacturing cells.
- Machine loading and unloading stations.
- Horizontal hazardous-area protection.
- OEM machinery and industrial automation safety systems.
