SICK FLG Series

This light grid is a frame-mounted safety sensor designed to detect intrusions using invisible infrared beams in industrial environments. It provides a Compact safeguarding solution for machinery and access points where high-resolution beam detection is required, and it is built to operate reliably under typical factory conditions.

• 4mm beam separation delivers fine-resolution object detection
• Infrared light source permits non-visible sensing in bright areas
• IP65 rated enclosure enables protection against dust and water jets
• Vibration-tested to EN 60068-2-6 supports operation in vibrating equipment
• Shock-tested to EN 60068-2-27 improves resistance to mechanical impacts
• Conforms to EN 60947-5-2 for electrical safety Interface compatibility

• Suitable for safeguarding moving machine guards and doors
• Ideal for integration into automated assembly cells
• Used with robotic workstations to protect human operators
• Can be used for perimeter detection on production lines

It adopts a framed light grid configuration that surrounds openings to create an optical protective plane without requiring a continuous curtain.

The unit is designed with a short overall length and narrow width to fit into space-constrained guard frames while maintaining high detection resolution.

The device combines an IP65-rated enclosure with standards-tested resistance to both mechanical shock and vibration, making it suitable for harsh production settings.

Detection is achieved using an array of infrared emitter/receiver beams configured to form a grid for reliable object interruption sensing.
