6.7.1 Installing the muting sensors on PSEN op4B-S models
As the package passes through, the safety function is temporarily
suspended via the muting sensors. The outputs on these sensors are
connected to the muting inputs MUTING 1 and MUTING 2 on the
safety light curtain receiver (RX).
The contacts for these sensors are monitored via the receiver (RX).
Optoelectronic, mechanical, proximity sensors etc. can be used as
muting sensors, using a closed contact when the object requiring
detection is present.
The following examples illustrate the application of the muting function:
- Application with four optoelectronic sensors: Configured with
parallel light axes
This solution is suitable for applications in which the object can be
moved in two directions.
For correct operation set position 2 on the DIP switch to ON.

• The distance between B2 and A2 or B1 and A1 should be as long
as possible, but distance D between A2 and A1 must be less than
the object size L
• A2 and B1 must be positioned as close as possible in front
of/behind the safety light curtain.
