Schneider Electric XUS-LTR5E0520T Light Curtain

Schneider Electric XUS-LTR5E0520T is a 24 V DC safety light curtain transmitter from the XUSL family, engineered for personnel protection and hazardous-area monitoring in industrial automation. It uses through-beam photoelectric sensing to create a protective field across dangerous zones, commonly installed in presses, packaging machines, robotic cells, and automated production equipment to interrupt operation when the detection area is entered. The unit is a transmitter design for through-beam sensing, delivering Type 4 ESPE safety level performance with a 9-meter sensing distance and a GaAlAs LED light source at 850 nm. It features an M12 electrical connection, a response time of 20 ms, and an IP65-rated, powder-coated aluminum housing for rugged industrial environments. Certifications include CE, CSA, and UL, reflecting its suitability for safety-critical machine safety systems across packaging lines, assembly lines, robotic workstations, and material handling setups. This configuration provides hand protection by creating a protective sensing field that interrupts machine operation if entry is detected.
