Omron F3SG Series Light Curtain Receiver, Sender, 38 Beam(s), 25 mm Resolution

This light curtain provides a safeguarding sensor for industrial machinery, using an optical barrier to detect intrusions and protect personnel around hazardous equipment. It functions as a receiver component within a safety system, intended for integration where precise object detection and rapid interruption of hazardous motion are required. The device is designed for installations demanding high safety integrity and dependable beam detection across a metre-scale working distance.

• Type 4 safety rating delivering high-level hazardous area protection
• 38 independent beams enabling fine intrusion discrimination
• 25mm beam resolution allowing detection of small objects
• 8 ms maximum response time reducing stop-to-hazard intervals
• 0.3-20m sensing range supporting short and long set-ups
• 28.8V maximum supply voltage compatible with common control systems

• Suitable for safeguarding access to automated press operations
• Ideal for perimeter protection on robotic workcells
• Used with conveyor lines requiring object presence monitoring
• Can be used for gating protection around packaging machines
• Suitable for integration into assembly stations needing high-resolution sensing

The minimum scanning distance is 0.3 m, which is the shortest separation at which the receiver reliably senses interrupted beams.

The unit supports a maximum protective width of 20 m, permitting long perimeter coverage when paired with matching transmitters.

There are 38 beams, each functioning as an independent detection channel for detailed object profiling.

The receiver accepts up to 28.8V supply, so designers should ensure power rails and wiring are rated for that maximum voltage.
