Industrial MCF47-12-400-X1 Light Curtain Receiver

STI MCF47-12-400-X1 is the receiver unit of STI’s MCF4700 safety light curtain family, designed to guard hazardous production zones by detecting infrared beam interruptions from a matching transmitter. As the recipient half of a two-piece protection system, it feeds safety status to a controller to halt machine operation when the guarded area is breached. The MCF4700 series is cascadable, allowing multiple transmitter and receiver segments to extend guarding fields, and interconnect cables are available in lengths from 0.3 m to 10 m to suit installation needs. This variant carries the alternate manufacturer part number 70181-1040, identifying its place within the MCF4700 lineup. The MCF47-12-400-X1 belongs to a modular, field-configurable safety solution used across manufacturing environments to protect personnel around guards, presses, and automated cells, with compatibility to STI controllers that monitor light-curtain inputs. Applications include presence sensing for machine guarding and enabling automatic stop of machinery when a protected zone is entered, providing a scalable option for compact guarding envelopes while maintaining straightforward alignment and maintenance.
