A Light Curtain that can be a Transmitter or Receiver - Video

Allen-Bradley GuardShield 450L-B Safety Light Curtain are unlike traditional safety light curtains, which are based on separate transmitter and receiver units. This next generation light curtain system features patented technology, which allows each transceiver to be used as a transmitter or receiver via an innovative plug-in module. This advanced technology greatly reduces stock and provides a flexible, cost-effective safety solution.

The functionality of a pair of 450L-B safety light curtains can be selected by inserting plug-in modules into the bottom of each transceiver. Once powered up, the transceiver learns its functionality from the plug-in module and begins operating as a transmitter or receiver. This advanced technology greatly reduces stock and provides a flexible, cost-effective safety solution. This compact, simple on/off solution is ideal for hand and finger detection and is offered in a wide range of protective heights from 150…1950 mm (5.9…76.7 in.) in increments of 150 mm (0.5 ft).
