SICK C40S Series Light Curtain Sender, 14 mm Resolution

This light curtain is a safety sensor designed for industrial environments to protect personnel and machinery by creating a monitored protective field. It functions as the sender component within a system, employing optical synchronisation and offering a configurable scanning range suitable for short- to medium-reach installations. The unit operates from a 24V supply and is intended for integration with safety relays and control equipment.

• 14mm beam resolution provides fine object detection and precise protection
• 10m scanning distance enables extended coverage for larger machines
• Type 4 safety classification delivers high risk reduction and fault tolerance
• IP65 enclosure rating permits use in dusty and damp conditions
• Aluminium housing reduces weight and supports Durable mounting

• Suitable for safeguarding production line access points
• Ideal for integration with safety relays in machine cells
• Used with palletising systems requiring optically synchronised sensing
• Can be used for protecting automated handling equipment
• Suitable for retrofit safety upgrades in manufacturing plants

It meets SIL3, Category 4 and PL e as defined by IEC/EN standards.

Synchronisation is achieved optically between sender and receiver.

It operates between 0°C and +55°C with 15%-95% non‑condensing humidity and withstands vibration and shock per relevant EN tests.

It requires 24V DC (19.2V to 28.8V) with supply buffering for 20 MS disturbances.

Local 7‑segment display elements are provided and LEDs indicate operational states and contamination alerts.
