SICK C2MT Series Light Curtain, 24 mm Resolution

This light curtain is a Compact safety sensor designed for machine-guarding applications where a short protective field is required. It operates from a 24V supply and provides an optically synchronised protective beam suitable for standalone use or as the last device in cascaded systems. The unit is intended for industrial environments and integrates with standard safety relays via an M12 system connection.

• 24V supply voltage enables direct connection to standard control systems
• 24mm beam resolution enhances detection of small intrusions
• 6m to 8m scanning distance supports medium-range safeguarding
• ≤13ms response time reduces hazardous exposure duration
• PNP OSSD outputs protect against short-circuit conditions

• Suitable for safeguarding access to automatic machinery
• Ideal for integration with safety relays and control panels
• Used with conveyor feed and ejection stations for personnel protection
• Can be used for protecting small loading apertures and hatches

It connects via a 5‑pin M12 plug with a 160mm cable tail and hard-wired configuration.

The enclosure rating is IP65 and it operates between -20°C and +55°C with non‑condensing humidity.

The safe state ensures at least one OSSD is driven to the OFF condition to terminate hazardous outputs.

It conforms to Type 2 under IEC 61496‑1 with SIL1 and PLc designations and an internal test rate of 58/s.
