Overview
The Banner Engineering MSE2424Y is a Mini-Screen safety light curtain emitter engineered for machine guarding, point-of-operation safeguarding, and presence sensing applications. This compact emitter integrates into two-piece safety light curtain systems alongside a compatible MSR receiver to create an infrared sensing screen that protects personnel from hazardous equipment. The unit features an integral quick-disconnect connector and robust IP65 enclosure rating for reliable operation in industrial environments.
