The DPR-1440-NPN-NC uses: 14 infrared optical beams
The optical axis pitch is: 40 mm
The optical axis pitch represents the distance between adjacent infrared beams.
The DPR-1440-NPN-NC provides: 520 mm protection height
The calculation is:
The total height of the DPR-1440-NPN-NC is: 606 mm
This includes the housing and end caps.
The DPR-1440-NPN-NC uses: Through-beam infrared detection
The system consists of:
The response time is: <5 ms
The DPR-1440-NPN-NC has a detection distance of 0.2–3 m.
The DPR-1440-NPN-NC has an IP65 protection rating, making it suitable for industrial environments where protection against dust and water jets is required.
The operating temperature range of the DPR-1440-NPN-NC is -10°C to +55°C.
The DPR-1440-NPN-NC uses: NPN NC output configuration
NPN output (sinking) switches the output to 0V when active, commonly used with PLC sinking inputs. PNP output (sourcing) switches the output to +V when active.
The DPR-1440-NPN-NC uses NPN output, which is compatible with NPN input modules commonly found in Asian and European industrial control systems.
NC means: Normally Closed signal logic
For the DPR-1440-NPN-NC configuration:
| Condition | Output Status |
|---|---|
| Normal beam condition | 0V signal output (low level) |
| Beam interruption | High impedance (no output) |
The specified power supply is: DC24V ±20%

DAPPRA provides certification documentation including:
Select the DPR Series model according to the required beam quantity, optical axis pitch, protection height, output configuration, and sensing distance. The DPR-1440-NPN-NC provides 14 beams, 40 mm optical axis pitch, 520 mm protection height, and NPN NC output.
The protection height is calculated using: Protection Height = (Beam Quantity - 1) × Optical Axis Pitch
For DPR-1440-NPN-NC: (14 - 1) × 40 mm = 520 mm
For selection, ensure the protection height covers the full area requiring detection on your machine.
The minimum safety distance depends on your machine's stopping time, the sensor's response time (<5 ms), and applicable safety standards. A general formula is: Safety Distance = Stopping Distance + Response Distance + Safety Margin
Refer to the installation guide or consult with a DAPPRA engineer for specific calculations based on your application.
The DPR-1440-NPN-NC is a safety-rated light curtain with SIL certification. Type 2 and Type 4 light curtains refer to categories defined in IEC 61496. The DPR Series is designed to meet the performance requirements for machine protection applications.
