Why Choose the ABB Orion Shield-045 Lens Shield?
The ABB Orion Shield-045, part number 2TLA022313R5200, is a purpose-designed lens shield for ABB Orion1 Base safety light curtains. It is specifically intended for corresponding Orion1-4-xx-045-B models, providing an additional protective barrier over the optical surface of the safety device in industrial machinery and automation applications.
As part of the ABB Orion Shield accessory range, the Orion Shield-045 is designed to protect the front lens of a compatible Orion1 Base light curtain from mechanical damage in demanding working environments. This makes it a practical accessory where safety equipment may be exposed to impacts, sparks or other conditions that could damage an unprotected optical surface.
The Orion Shield-045 has an overall length of 540 mm, with ABB dimensional data specifying an Li dimension of 400 mm and an Lo dimension of 60 mm. Each package contains the necessary parts to protect one safety light curtain unit, either the transmitter or receiver, so two shields should be ordered when both units of a complete transmitter-receiver pair require protection.

Reliable Lens Protection for Safety Light Curtains
Safety light curtains rely on their optical transmitter and receiver surfaces to create and monitor the protective field across a hazardous machine area. In demanding production environments, exposed optical surfaces may be vulnerable to accidental impacts, sparks and other sources of physical damage, making dedicated lens protection useful where the safety device requires additional shielding.
The ABB Orion Shield range provides dedicated protection for compatible Orion safety light curtains without requiring a general-purpose enclosure around the complete installation. The Orion Shield-045 is dimensioned specifically for corresponding Orion1-4-xx-045-B models and protects either one transmitter or one receiver. Where both sides of a complete light curtain pair require protection, two Orion Shield-045 units should be ordered.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machine guarding systems.
- Automated manufacturing and assembly equipment.
- Metalworking and fabrication machinery.
- Production areas where light curtains may be exposed to sparks or impacts.
- Material handling and conveyor systems.
- Safety installations using compatible ABB Orion1 Base light curtains.
