Product Selection

1a.  Multiple-Beam PAC

The Allen-Bradley Guardmaster PAC multiple beam safety light curtains are ordered as pairs—transmitter and receiver—and shipped under one part number. After selecting the appropriate light curtain pair, ensure that required interfaces and accessories are ordered as well. The single-beam PAC can be ordered with a passive mirror column (440L-AMIRSTDZ500) or two right angle mirrors (440L-AMIRR2).
