Omron F3SG Series Light Curtain Sender, Receiver, 72 Beam(s), 30 mm Resolution

This light curtain is a safety sensor assembly designed to protect personnel around automated machinery by detecting obstructions within a guarded zone. It operates as a paired sender and receiver to create a multi-beam sensing barrier suitable for factory floors and production lines. The device offers high-resolution beam spacing and rapid reaction capability for preventing access to hazardous areas while allowing flexible installation across a broad protective span.

• 72 individual beams provide fine object detection and reduced blind zones
• 30mm beam spacing increases precision for small-part detection
• Response time of 9ms enables fast machine stoppage and reduced impact
• Operates over 0.3-20m scanning distances for flexible siting
• Supports up to 20m protective width for wide-area guarding
• Compatible with 28.8V supply voltages for standard control systems

• Suitable for safeguarding robotic pick-and-place cells
• Ideal for perimeter guarding of large conveyor systems
• Used with press and stamping machinery to prevent access
• Can be used for access control on assembly-line stations
• Suitable for integration into automated packaging equipment

The sensor requires at least 0.3m working distance to detect objects reliably at the closest range.

The unit has a 35mm profile suited to narrow mounting rails and tight enclosure edges.

A single installation provides 1470mm of protected height, accommodating most operator access zones.

It maintains detection performance up to 20m separation while preserving the specified beam resolution.
