distance between the light beams and the nearest point of
danger.
Persons situated inside the danger zone, but outside the
protection field are not recognized. It must therefore be ensured
that a dangerous condition is only possible when there is nobody
present in the danger zone.
The relevant legal and government regulations are to be
complied with the implementation of protection installations.
These regulations vary, depending on areas of application.
Corner Mirrors and Mounting Columns
The GuardShield two- and three-beam PACs can be used with one
or two corner mirrors to provide two- or three-sided protection.
The use of each corner mirror reduces the maximum range of the
GuardShield PAC by at least 10% per mirror.
It is possible to use full length corner mirrors (440L-AM075 series,
440L-AM125 series).
Rockwell also offers pedestal floor mounting stands (440L-
AMSTD) which will accommodate the mounting of the
GuardShield two- or three-beam PAC with the appropriate full
length corner or mirror column mirrors.
