SICK deTec4 Core Series Light Curtain Receiver, 30 mm Resolution

This light curtain is a receiver designed for safeguarding industrial machinery by creating an optical protective field that detects intrusion and stops hazardous motion. It is intended for normal industrial environments and operates alongside a compatible sender to monitor access points up to the specified protective width. The device provides a dual-OSSD output architecture for connection to safety controllers and relays and is supplied with mounting aids and a test rod for commissioning.

• 10ms response time delivering Rapid stop signalling
• 24VDC supply for integration with standard controls
• Optical synchronisation preventing blind zones
• 2 PNP OSSDs with cross-circuit monitoring for diagnostics
• IP65/IP67 enclosure enabling use in harsh environments

• Suitable for machine guarding at production cell access points
• Ideal for integration with safety relays and interlocks
• Used with robotic workstations to protect operators
• Can be used for perimeter safeguarding in material handling
• Suitable for retrofitting existing safety control circuits

It connects via a 5-pin M12 plug with a 150mm cable tail and LEDs for status indication.

Cross-circuit and short-circuit monitoring on the OSSD outputs trigger a lock-out state when faults are detected.

It operates between -30°C and +55°C with humidity tolerance from 15% to 95% non-condensing.

The extruded aluminium housing withstands vibration to 5 to 150Hz and shock to 15g/6ms.

It conforms to Type 4 per IEC 61496-1, SIL 3, Category 4, and achieves PL e with a PFHD of 3.7 x 10-9.
