Defender™ Barrier Door

Defender™ is the industry's most effective machine guarding door device yet. Designed with the latest regulations and most demanding manufacturing process in mind, the Defender is the ideal device for safeguarding machinery in many manufacturing environments.

Applications

Anywhere that a machine operator interfaces with a machine, robot or process is an ideal application for the Defender.

Visibly safer than light curtains, the Defender combines safety interlock switches/controls capable of achieving up to PLe, Category 4 level safety with a movable physical barrier restricting access to dangerous machine movement while at the same time containing process driving hazards such as weld flash/sparks, flying debris, mist, spray and other containment and exposures.

Protects operators from application driven hazards while restricting access from machine/robot operation both physically and electronically with optional safety rated switches and controls.

Switches/controls capable of reaching Cat 4 (per 954-1), PLe (per ENISO 13489-1) and/or SIL 3 (per EN62061) when integrated properly.

Armorplex™ Curtain Material: Durable, Resilient 40oz flame resistant (NFPA 701) high tensile ASTM tested black curtain material.

Multiple motor positions to best fit your application.

See safety distance formula information here. EN ISO 13857 Safety of machinery - Safe distances to prevent hazard zones being reached by upper/lower limbs and EN ISO 13855 Safety of machinery - Position of safeguards with respect to the approach speeds of parts of the body.
