GuardShield Safe 4
2. Introduction
GuardShield Safe 4 safety light curtains are active
optoelectronic protective equipment AOPE type 4
with object detection capability of 14 mm or 30 mm.
GuardShield Safe 4 has built-in fully redundant self-
monitoring circuitry and complies to annex VI of the
European Machinery Directive EC/98/37 and IEC
61496 as a safety component. GuardShield Safe 4 is
a control reliability device as well as defined in ANSI
B11.19-1990, 5.5 and OSHA 29 CFR 1910.212.

2.1. System design
GuardShield Safe 4 light curtains consist of a
transmitter and a receiver (Figure 1).
The transmitter as well as the receiver of GuardShield
Safe 4 have a standard built-in intelligent laser
alignment system ILAS.

The transmitter as well as the receiver of GuardShield
Safe 4 have a standard built-in intelligent laser
alignment system ILAS.
This allows a much easier adjustment during installation
and system testing compared to conventional safety
light curtains. The ILAS may also be used as a
and system testing compared to conventional safety
light curtains. The ILAS may also be used as a
vibration indicator at the installation.
