Light Curtain, MLC-K72, Monitored, 32ft Wide x 6ft High, Miller Edge (MLC-K72)

Miller Edge MLC-K72 Monitored Light Curtain – 6-Foot Safety System for Commercial Door Operators

The Miller Edge MLC-K72 Monitored Light Curtain is a high-performance, UL 325-compliant safety solution designed to enhance entrapment protection for commercial and industrial door operators. With its 6-foot length and thru-beam sensing technology, the MLC-K72 offers a reliable barrier of detection, minimizing false signals and ensuring doors stop or reverse when obstructions are present.

Equipped with 16 sensing elements, this monitored system actively detects interruptions across its height, offering superior protection compared to standard photo eyes—especially in environments with irregularly shaped or protruding equipment.

Key Features

• Monitored Entrapment Device
  Sends an immediate signal to the operator when the light curtain is interrupted, ensuring quick reversal or stop action for enhanced safety.
