GuardShield Micro 400

Safety Light Curtains


Small Profile, Type 4, SIL 3 Safety Light Curtains
with DIN Controller

The Allen-Bradley Guardmaster


GuardShield Micro 400 safety light
curtain is an economical, Type 4, three
box safety light curtain designed for
small assembly machines in ambient
operating environments, or where
mounting space is limited. These
GuardShield Micro 400 safety light
curtains are general purpose presence
sensing devices designed for use on
hazardous machinery for point of
operation guarding. Offered in
14 mm and 30 mm resolutions,
this SIL 3 rated safety solution offers
expanded functionality via the MSR42
controller. The MSR42 controller
is also a multi function safety
module with hard wired or software
configurable operating modes. The
MSR42 controller has two PNP OSSDs
which can be connected directly to
the final switching device. If safety
relay outputs are required, up to
three safety relay expansion modules
(MSR45E) may be easily connected
to the controller.

GuardShield Reliability
and Functionality, with
Added Flexibility
The GuardShield Micro 400 light
curtain, connected to an MSR42
controller, improves flexibility
for applications requiring two or
three light curtains or other safety
devices such as safety laser scanners,
E-Stops or safety switches by simple
configuration of the general purpose
MSR42 inputs.

These configurable inputs result in a reduction of the overall system


wiring and simplify the safety circuit resulting in lower overall cost for
a multiple safety device system. Plus, these small profile safety light
curtains fit into areas of machinery or equipment where competitors
light curtains may not.
The GuardShield Micro 400 used in conjunction with the MSR42 controller
has a SIL 3 rating per IEC61508. And since these light curtains meet
IEC61496 and UL61496 and are CE marked by TV, they are also a global
solution for a wide range of challenging machine guarding applications.
The GuardShield Micro 400 safety light curtains are ordered as pairs
(transmitter and receiver) and are shipped under a single catalog number
for ease of selection. The MSR42, MSR45E, ribbon cable connectors and
patch cords are ordered separately to complete the safety system.

Features:








Pigtail cable with M12 connector


3 box system with dedicated safety controller
Offered in 14 mm and 30 mm resolutions
Slim profile housing (15 mm x 20 mm)
150 mm to 1200 mm protective heights, in 150 mm increments
DIN controller is also multi function safety module
Configuration of controller functionality through wiring or software
Expansion safety relay modules (MSR45E) easily connect to controller
A global safeguarding solution that meets IEC61496 and UL61496 and is
CE marked by TV
