That 30mm figure means it catches a hand or arm reaching into the hazard zone — finger-protection class per IEC 61496-1 would need a smaller beam pitch, but for palm and forearm this is the standard spec. The 40 beams at 25mm pitch cover a 995mm protective height, giving you a guarded zone that suits conveyor infeed, assembly station access, or robot cell perimeters. Operating range spans 0.2m to 9.0m — short enough to mount close to the hazard for a compact cell, long enough to cover a wide access opening across a gantry aisle. The 24VDC supply is standard for safety circuits; you'll pull power from the safety relay or controller's 24V bus. IP65 rating means the emitter and receiver housings are dust-tight and protected against water jets — suitable for washdown environments in food processing or automotive machining lines, though not for submersion. Blanking and muting functions are built in. Blanking lets you disable specific beams to allow a fixed obstruction (like a fixture or conveyor frame) through the field without tripping the safety output. Muting temporarily suspends the light curtain during a defined material pass cycle — think a pallet moving through the guarded opening while the machine runs. Both are configurable, so the integrator doesn't need an external bypass module. ## Deployment context Mounts via the standard end-bracket and column hardware for the F3SJ-A series — alignment to the receiver is critical; the manual specifies a ±2.5° angular tolerance. The 995mm protective height and 30mm detection capability mean this is sized for a reach-through hazard zone where a hand could enter but not a finger. Typical deployment: guarding the load/unload opening of a press brake, a packaging machine infeed, or a robotic workcell gate.","metaTitle":"Omron F3SJ-A0995P30 Light Curtain, Hand/Arm 30mm Detection","metaDescription":"Omron F3SJ-A0995P30 safety light curtain with 30mm detection capability, 995mm protective height, 40 beams at 25mm pitch.

This is the standard spec for hand/arm protection per IEC 61496-1 — it catches a palm or forearm but not individual fingers. For finger protection you'd need a 14mm detection capability."},{"question":"What is the protective height and how does it affect guarding coverage?","answer":"The protective height is 995mm, achieved by 40 beams spaced at 25mm pitch. This covers the vertical zone from roughly ankle to shoulder height for a standing operator, or the full opening of a typical machine access guard. The actual guarded area extends beyond the protective height by the minimum distance calculated per ISO 13855 based on approach speed and stopping time."},{"question":"What approvals or compliance documentation is available for this part?","answer":"The F3SJ-A series carries Type 4 certification per IEC 61496-1 and -2, with SIL 3 / PL e capability. The manufacturer provides a declaration of conformity, CE marking, and UL listing documentation. RoHS and REACH compliance declarations are available through the standard documentation package."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/omron/F3SJ-A0995P30","citationPolicyUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/llms.txt","source":"AO Ctrl","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"AO Ctrl\" and link https://aoctrl.com/omron/F3SJ-A0995P30 when reusing this data.
