GuardShield™ Type 2 Safety Light Curtain

The GuardShield™ Type 2 safety light curtain is designed for use on or around machinery where a formal risk assessment has determined that a Type 2 safety device is of a sufficient level of safety to meet the guarding application. Offered in a 30mm resolution with protective heights from 160mm to 1760mm in 160mm increments, the GuardShield Type 2 provides personnel protection from low risk hazards. Configured from the factory in either a "Guard Only" or "Restart Interlock with EDM (External Device Monitoring)" mode of operation, the GuardShield Type 2 will suit most application configurations requiring a Type 2 opto-electronic device.
