MLC511R30-600.1 — technical product overview
Order number 68025306 identifies the Leuze MLC511R30-600.1 receiver. This MLC 500 variant combines a 600 mm nominal field with 30 mm resolution and a specified receiver response of 11 ms.
This MLC511.1 variant has two PNP OSSDs, a 24 V DC ±20% supply and a four-pin M12 male connector. Its Basic package includes DoubleScan, automatic start/restart and transmission channel selection. A five-pin MLC510 receiver cable must not be assumed to have the same pin assignment; integration requires the diagram for the exact model.
Use the 29 × 666 × 35.4 mm housing dimensions for mechanical layout. The 600 mm nominal field and overall body height are different; allow additional clearance for mounting and the connector.
The 30 mm resolution is relevant to a hand-protection assessment. Layouts that allow someone to remain behind the field may require additional measures.
Include the safety-controller delay when calculating total response together with measured machine stopping time. The Type 4 / PL e / SIL 3 device classification does not by itself establish compliance of the complete machine. This record is for the receiver only; a compatible transmitter is selected separately.

Frequently asked questions
Is MLC511R30-600.1 a transmitter-receiver kit?
No. Order code 68025306 specifies the receiver only. Select a compatible transmitter and connection accessories separately.
Is 600 mm the overall body height?
No. The nominal field is 600 mm; the mechanical height is 666 mm, excluding installation clearance.
How is MLC511R30-600.1 connected?
It uses 2 PNP OSSD with a 4-pin M12 male connector. Supply: 24 V DC ±20%. Check the exact-model pin assignment before connection.
Does 11 ms describe the complete stopping time?
No. It is the receiver response. Add controller/network delays and the measured stopping time of the machine.
