GuardShield™ Safety Light Curtain User Manual GuardShield Safety Light Curtain Safety Precautions Introduction Principles for Safe Use and Symbols Used The GuardShield family of safety light curtains are general purpose presence sensing devices, designed for use on hazardous machinery providing point of operation, as well as, perimeter and access detection. It is a self-contained, two box, Type 4 ESPE (Electro Sensitive Protective Equipment) with DIP-switch selectable operating modes.
GuardShield™ Safety Light Curtain User Manual Specialist Personnel The GuardShield safety light curtain must be installed, commissioned and serviced only by a qualified person.
GuardShield™ Safety Light Curtain User Manual GuardShield Light Curtain Principle of Operation The GuardShield safety light curtain consists of a non-matched pair of optic units, i.e., transmitter and receiver with the same protected height and resolution. The transmitter and receiver operate on +24V DC. The maximum distance between transmitter and receiver is referred to as the protective field width or range. The protective field height is the distance between the first and last beam in the device.
GuardShield™ Safety Light Curtain User Manual possible to use a standard GuardShield Type 4 POC pair as the last segment in a cascading system. IMPORTANT The protective system must be tested for proper operation after each and every change to the configuration. Examples of Range of Use The GuardShield safety light curtain operates as a proper protective device only if the following conditions are met: • The control of the machine must be electrical.
GuardShield™ Safety Light Curtain User Manual EDM is not available in the middle and end segments of a cascading GuardShield system, however, it is possible to configure this operating mode in the host segment allowing the whole cascading system to operate in this mode. External Device Monitoring (EDM) is not available in GuardShield light curtains with ArmorBlock Guard I/O connectivity.
GuardShield™ Safety Light Curtain User Manual Fixed Blank Beam Roller Work Path IMPORTANT Actuation of the floating blanking mode of operation changes the resolution of the GuardShield. GuardShield Resolution 14 mm (0.55 in.) 30 mm (1.18 in.) Work Piece Number of Beams “Floated” Effective Resolution 1 Beam 24 mm (0.94 in.) 2 Beam 34 mm (1.34 in.) 1 Beam 50 mm (1.97 in.

GuardShield™ Safety Light Curtain User Manual OSHA Safety Distance Calculation Formula The OSHA safety distance formula as specified in CFR Subpart O 1910.217 is as follows: Ds = 63 X TS Ds Safety Distance 63 Is the OSHA recommended hand speed constant in inches per second Ts Is the total stop time of all devices in the safety circuit, measured in seconds. This value must include all components involved in stopping the hazardous motion of the machinery.
GuardShield™ Safety Light Curtain User Manual If the result S is > 500 mm (19.6 in.), then recalculate S as follows: S = 1600 × T + 8 × (d – 14) [mm] If the new value S is > 500 mm (19.6 in.), then use the newly determined value as the minimum safety distance. If the new value S is ≤ 500 mm (19.6 in.), then use 500 mm (19.6 in.) as the safety distance. Example: Stopping/run-down time of the machine = 290 ms Response time = 30 ms Resolution of the light curtain = 14 mm (0.55 in.
GuardShield™ Safety Light Curtain User Manual Cycle power to assure that the system powers up and goes to the ON state (alignment indicator is OFF). Correct Installation The GuardShield is also offered with an integrated laser alignment system which has a constantly powered Class 1, eye safe laser located in the top of the GuardShield transmitter and in the bottom of the GuardShield receiver. Each laser emits a low level of visible light.

These patchcords are offered in a variety of lengths. Finally it is necessary to determine if the last segment of the cascading system is a standard or cascading GuardShield pair.
GuardShield™ Safety Light Curtain User Manual Transmitters emit in opposite direction. Each receiver receives only the beams of the appropriate transmitter. Transmitters emit in same direction: ➡Coding necessary Noncoded Coded Positioning of the light curtain: Transmitters emit in opposite direction.
