What this light curtain delivers for the install
The Omron F3SG-4SRA0320-25 is a Type 4 safety light curtain from the F3SG-SR series, rated for hand protection with a 25 mm detection capability — that means it catches a finger or hand reaching into the hazard zone, meeting the finger-protection class per IEC 61496-1. The 20 mm beam pitch and 16 beams give it a 320 mm protective height, sized for guarding a single-axis access point like a pick-and-place cell or a small press opening. Operating range spans 0.3 m to 20.0 m, so it works across a short reach to a long corridor. Supply is 24 VDC, standard for safety circuits in a control panel. The IP65/IP67/IP67G rating means the housing and optics withstand washdown — suitable for food-and-bev lines or wet machining areas where oil and water spray are routine.
Built-in blanking and muting for production flow
Blanking and muting functions are onboard — no external controller needed for fixed or floating blanking of stationary objects (like a fixture) or for muting the curtain during a pallet pass-through. This saves a DIN-rail slot and reduces wiring compared to a basic curtain that requires a separate safety controller for those features.
