Omron F3SG Series Light Curtain Receiver, Sender, 60 Beam(s), 30 mm Resolution

This light curtain is a safety sensor system designed to monitor hazardous areas around machinery by detecting intrusions across an array of infrared beams. It operates as a paired transmitter and receiver to create a protective field for personnel safeguarding, suitable for industrial environments where rapid detection and automated stoppage are required.

• 60-beam array offers fine object detection for machine guarding
• 30mm beam resolution enables detection of small body parts
• 350mm protective height provides compact area coverage
• 0.3m minimum scanning distance supports close-proximity monitoring
• 10m maximum scanning distance allows long-range installation
• 8ms maximum response time permits fast machine stop signalling

• Suitable for safeguarding access points on production lines
• Ideal for perimeter protection of robotic cells
• Used with material handling equipment to detect personnel
• Can be used for press and stamping machine guarding
• Used for entry control on automated assembly stations

The unit is designed to run from a 24V supply, powering both emitter and receiver components.

The system comprises separate sender and receiver components that must be aligned to form the protective beam array across the guarded opening.

With 60 beams, the curtain produces closely spaced light planes that improve detection granularity compared with fewer-beam solutions.

It is categorised as Type 4 safety equipment, intended for high-integrity presence sensing tasks.
