Description

Multi-beam safety light curtains from Rockwell Automation are infrared protection devices with one to four infrared beams. They operate on the through-beam principle, consisting of a sender and receiver unit and are suitable for access control and perimeter guarding.

The PAC fulfils the EN 50100 requirements, safety category 4, in that it is a self-monitoring device.

Integrated evaluation with state-of-the-art electronics and specially developed ICs (ASICs)
Beam coding for high interference immunity
Actively monitored semiconductor outputs
Mini style quick disconnect connectors
Fast response time
Large signal reserve (factor two)
Optical synchronization of sender and receiver units
Operating modes:
- Electronic Device Monitoring (EDM)
- Restart Interlock
Muting configuration available

The devices were designed for industrial applications and offer the following advantages:

Beam coding for optimal interference immunity
Robust modular construction
Universal application possibilities
Simple installation
