The Omron F3SG-4SRA0560-14 is a type-4 safety light curtain from the F3SG-SR series, rated for finger detection with a 14 mm detection capability and a 560 mm protective height. It uses 55 infrared beams at a 10 mm pitch to cover a 0.3 m to 10.0 m operating range. The unit runs on 24 VDC and carries an IP65/IP67/IP67G ingress rating — dust-tight, water-resistant, and oil-resistant, which matters when washdown or coolant mist is in the environment.
The 14 mm detection capability means this curtain catches a finger-sized object — it's for point-of-operation guarding where a hand could reach into a hazard, not just presence detection. The 560 mm protective height and 55 beams give you the coverage zone; you'll size the curtain so the hazardous area falls entirely within that height. Operating range of 0.3 m to 10.0 m covers most machine openings; the minimum 0.3 m standoff means you can't mount it flush against the hazard edge. The IP67G rating adds oil resistance to the standard IP67 water immersion — useful on machining centers or hydraulic presses where oil mist is constant. Temperature range of -30°C to 55°C covers unheated warehouses and refrigerated areas, but the upper limit is 55°C, so check if the machine zone runs hotter near ovens or dryers.
