Why Choose the ABB ABB orion2-4-k3-080-b 2TLA022304R0100 Safety Light Grid?
The ABB ABB orion2-4-k3-080-b 2TLA022304R0100 is a high-performance Type 4 safety light grid transmitter and receiver set designed for body detection and access protection around hazardous industrial machinery. Part of the ABB Orion2 Base series, this model uses 3 optical beams with a 400 mm inter-axis distance and provides an 800 mm protected height for dependable personnel safeguarding.
The Orion2-4-K3-080-B establishes an optoelectronic protective field between its transmitter and receiver. When a person interrupts one or more of the beams, the light grid's safety outputs can signal the associated machine safety system so that hazardous movement is stopped. Its substantial 0.5–50 m operating range provides excellent flexibility for guarding wide machine openings and large industrial access points.
Designed specifically for body detection, this Orion2 Base light grid has a 14 ms response time, operates from a 24 V DC supply and provides two failsafe OSSD outputs. Its IP65 protection and compact 964 × 70 × 41 mm profile support reliable integration into demanding industrial machinery and perimeter-guarding installations.

Reliable Body Detection for Industrial Access Protection
Safety light grids provide non-contact access protection by establishing multiple optical beams across an entrance to a hazardous area. When a person passes through the protected field, interruption of the beams causes the failsafe outputs to change state, enabling the associated safety control system to initiate the required machine stopping function.
The ABB Orion2 Base range is optimised for body detection and long-distance access protection. With three beams, a 400 mm inter-axis distance and an operating range extending to 50 m, the Orion2-4-K3-080-B is well suited to large machine cells, automated production areas and perimeter-guarding applications where physical access must be reliably detected.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machine access protection.
- Body detection at hazardous-area entrances.
- Robotic cells and automated production areas.
- Perimeter guarding around hazardous machinery.
- Conveyor and material handling installations.
- Automated assembly and manufacturing systems.
- Large machine cells requiring long sensing distances.
