Description
The Allen-Bradley Guardmaster GuardShield Perimeter Access Control (PAC) safety light curtain is a multiple beam, short range (0.3…16 m), Type 4 safety light curtain typically used to provide access detection at machine entry points. It is also possible to use the GuardShield PAC short range in perimeter guarding applications as an optoelectronic fence as long as the perimeter distance does not exceed the maximum range of 16 meters. Note that when using the GuardShield PAC short range with corner mirrors for multiple sided guarding, each mirror reduces the maximum scan range of 16 meters by 15%.

The GuardShield PAC is designed for whole body detection and is currently offered in two configurations: two beams at 500 mm spacing and three beams at 400 mm spacing.
