Its 25mm detection capability means it catches fingers and hands reaching into a hazard zone — that's the standard for finger-protection class per IEC 61496-1, not just presence detection. With 49 beams spaced at 20mm pitch covering a 980mm protective height, this curtain creates a detection plane that spans the full access opening. The 0.2m to 9.0m operating range gives flexibility for guarding large machine cells or tight robotic workstations. ## Deployment context and environment Rated IP65 — dust-tight and protected against water jets — so it handles washdown environments, machining coolant mist, and dusty assembly lines without needing an enclosure. Built-in blanking and muting functions let the curtain ignore fixed obstructions (like a machine frame) and automatically bypass during material pass-through cycles. That saves adding external bypass sensors in many press and packaging line layouts. Because it's an active, spec'd safety device with a defined detection capability and protective height, the fit decision comes down to matching the 980mm height and 25mm resolution to your guarding application. The 24VDC supply and standard industrial interface mean it drops into existing safety circuits without special power conditioning.","metaTitle":"Omron F3SJ-A0980P25-TS Light Curtain, 25mm Hand Detection","metaDescription":"Omron F3SJ-A0980P25-TS safety light curtain with 25mm detection capability, 980mm protective height, 20mm beam pitch, IP65.

It is not fine enough for finger detection (14mm), but it is the standard for hand guarding at access points."},{"question":"What is the protective height and how many beams does it have?","answer":"The protective height is 980mm, covered by 49 beams at 20mm pitch. This determines the vertical area the curtain guards — you need to select a model whose protective height matches or exceeds your opening height."},{"question":"Can this light curtain be used in washdown environments?","answer":"Yes, the IP65 rating means it is dust-tight and protected against water jets from any direction.
