GL-R64H Keyence Safety Light Curtain – Maximum Height Hand Protection
The GL-R64H is a high-resolution safety light curtain from the Keyence GL-R Series, specifically designed to safeguard large-scale industrial machinery. With 64 infrared beams and a 25 mm beam pitch, this unit provides an extensive safety barrier optimized for hand protection. It is fully compliant with global safety standards, including Type 4, SIL3, and PLe, ensuring the highest level of operator safety for tall access points.
Gapless Coverage with No-Blind-Zone Design
The GL-R64H features Keyence’s innovative «No-Blind-Zone» architecture. By extending the optical sensing elements to the very top and bottom of the housing, the unit provides a continuous 1260 mm protective height. This eliminates the need for extra mechanical guards at mounting junctions and allows for a clean, flush installation within machine frames, providing total protection without any sensing gaps.
