How long is the lifespan of safety light curtains?
The lifespan of safety light curtains depends on several factors, including brand, quality, operating environment, maintenance, and more.
Generally, if the safety light curtains are of reliable quality, used in a favorable environment, and undergo regular maintenance and inspection, their lifespan can typically reach 5 years or longer. Some specific brands, like Omron safety light curtains, may even have a lifespan of seven to eight years. However, if safety light curtains are exposed to harsh environments (such as high temperatures, high humidity, dust), or if maintenance is neglected, their lifespan may be significantly shortened.
To extend the lifespan of safety light curtains, the following measures can be taken:
1．Choose safety light curtains from reputable brands with reliable quality.
2．During installation, ensure that the installation environment meets the requirements of use, avoiding installation in harsh environments such as high temperatures, high humidity, or dust.
3．Regularly clean and maintain the safety light curtains to ensure their surface is clean and free from dust or dirt blocking the light beams.
4．Periodically check if the indicator lights of the safety light curtains are normal, and inspect each emitting unit to ensure they are functioning properly.
5．In environments with excessive oil or water, avoid allowing the safety light curtains to come into contact with oil and water to prevent damage.
6．Pay attention to interference, avoiding factors such as light or other elements that may disrupt the normal operation of safety light curtains.
In summary, by selecting quality safety light curtains, using them in favorable environments, conducting regular maintenance, and taking appropriate care measures, their lifespan can be extended, ensuring they function properly.
