Approvals and Conformity
The safety approval, performed by TÜV Rheinland is available on 
www.ab.com. The actual list of relevant safety data and applied standards 
is given in these documents.
Introduction
The MSR4x is a family of compact safety modules. The main controlling 
module allows the connection and the control of the GuardShield 
Micro400 safety light curtain systems (Figure 1). Depending on the 
configuration, other safety components can also be connected and 
monitored simultaneously.

on individual configuration)
Both the MSR42 and MSR41 offer two safety PNP outputs. Additional 
safety relay expansion modules can be applied for applications, which 
require more outputs (MSR41 or 42) and/or dry contacts (MSR45e) to 
switch loads. Up to three expansion modules can be controlled and daisy 
chained to one main module.
In addition to the expansion relays, models are offered in special 
configurations which are described in the appendix at the end of this 
manual.
MSR42, MSR41 or MSR45E units can only 
achieve their function as a safety 
controller module, if the instructions 
given in this instruction manual and the 
within mentioned documents are exactly 
followed, as well as consulting the valid 
laws and regulations at the time of 
installation. Should these instructions not 
be carefully followed, serious injury or 
death may occur. The installer or system 
integrator is responsible for a safe 
integration of this product. This 
instruction manual is to be used in 
conjunction with the MSR42, MSR41 and 
MSR45E module. It must be kept 
accessible together with the other 
machine documentation during its entire 
life cycle for all personnel responsible for 
assembly, installation, operation and 
maintenance.
