Light Curtain APC XUX9ARCNT16S49 – 11 m detection range, multi-color LED indicator, high brightness

APC XUX9ARCNT16S49 is a light curtain designed for presence and perimeter detection with an 11 m sensing range. The device provides non-contact detection over extended distances and is intended for industrial environments where reliable detection and clear visual status feedback are required. The integrated multi-color LED indicator and high brightness transmitter/receiver elements improve visibility and aid quick diagnostics in variable ambient lighting.

Advantages

The light curtain offers an extended 11 m detection range suitable for larger guarded zones, while the multi-color LED indicator provides immediate visual information about operational status and fault conditions. High brightness components enhance signal stability in bright or mixed lighting environments, reducing false trips and improving uptime. Compact mounting design and compatibility with standard safety systems enable straightforward integration into access control and machine guarding layouts.

Key specifications

How to use

Install the light curtain following manufacturer mounting guidelines so the emitter and receiver are aligned across the protected zone and unobstructed within the specified 11 m range. Connect the device to the control or safety relay according to the installation diagram, and configure indicator behavior as required for your system. Verify alignment and perform functional tests after powering the unit to confirm reliable detection and correct LED status reporting before putting the guarded area into normal operation.

Recommendations

Position the units to minimise direct exposure to intense light sources that could affect detection; ensure regular cleaning of optical surfaces and periodic functional checks. Use the multi-color LED to speed up troubleshooting and include the light curtain in routine safety inspections to maintain consistent performance in industrial environments.
