The automatic restart system (WBS) in the E version is the RLS Wacon light curtain for escalators and moving walks made by Schindler and ThyssenKrupp. It automatically releases an escalator again after an emergency stop has been activated and monitors the presence of people on the unit in accordance with EN 115.

The E version is a further development of the proven C version and is recommended for new installations. The light curtain consists of up to 99 light barriers, which are easily connected with plug connectors to form long module chains – no additional connecting elements are required. This results in a low risk of failure, and individual modules can be replaced easily and quickly. Each chain is terminated by an active end module; evaluation is performed by the TLCU22-04 central unit.

The automatic restart system (WBS) in the D version is the RLS Wacon light curtain for escalators and moving walks made by Kone and Otis. It automatically releases an escalator again after an emergency stop has been activated and monitors the presence of people on the unit in accordance with EN 115.

The light curtain consists of transmitter and receiver modules that are connected via cables to form chains. Each transmitter or receiver chain is terminated by an active end module. Evaluation is performed by the TLCU22-04 central unit, which is connected to the module chains via adapter cables. Compared with the discontinued MO version, the D version offers an improved connection system that simplifies installation, maintenance and repair; additional connecting elements are no longer needed.

The cost-optimised D version (rev.) offers identical functionality and safety. The module housing is marked directly to show whether it is a transmitter or receiver, and cost-effective 3-module and 7-module chains are available.

The conversion adapters allow existing automatic restart systems to be modernised without replacing the adapter cables already laid. The adapters are simply connected to the existing adapter cables of the predecessor version; only the transmitter and receiver modules of the new version need to be fitted.

• C to E – modernises systems of the C version to the E version (Schindler, ThyssenKrupp)
• MO to D – modernises systems of the discontinued MO version to the D version (Kone, Otis)

Use the module type to select transmitter or receiver and the conversion to select the appropriate combination.

Transmitter and receiver modules form the individual light barriers of the light curtain in the D version (escalators from Kone and Otis). The transmitter module emits an infrared light beam, which the opposite receiver module evaluates – if a person interrupts the beam, the system detects the occupancy.

Up to 99 modules per escalator side can be connected via cables to form chains; individual modules can be replaced quickly with minimal tools. Use the module type to select transmitter or receiver and the version to select standard or rev. In the rev. version, the housing is marked to show whether it is a transmitter or a receiver.
