The Omron F3SG-4SRA0960-14-F is a finger-protection light curtain from the F3SG-SR series, rated for 14 mm detection capability with a 10 mm beam pitch. Its 95 beams cover a 960 mm protective height, and the operating range spans 0.3 m to 10.0 m. The unit runs on 24 VDC and carries IP65/IP67/IP67G ingress protection, making it suitable for environments where dust, oil, and water resistance are required. Operating temperature range is -30°C to 55°C.
What the ratings mean for fit
The 14 mm detection capability and 10 mm beam pitch mean this curtain catches finger-sized intrusions — not just hand or body detection. That makes it a fit for applications where an operator's fingers could reach the danger zone, such as around small presses or assembly stations. The 960 mm protective height covers a typical standing operator's reach zone; if your guarding area is taller, you'd stack multiple units or step up to a higher protective-height variant in the same series. The 0.3 m to 10.0 m operating range gives flexibility for both tight machine guarding (short range) and wider access areas. The 95 beams at 10 mm pitch provide dense coverage — fewer blind spots than a coarser 20 mm or 30 mm pitch curtain. The IP65/IP67/IP67G rating means it can handle washdown environments and oil mist; the 'G' suffix indicates additional oil resistance, which matters in machining or hydraulic areas.
Integration notes
The F3SG-SR series supports blanking and muting functions, which are built into this model. Blanking lets you ignore fixed obstructions (like a machine frame) within the field; muting temporarily suspends the safety output during a material pass. Both are configured via the controller, not hardwired. The 24 VDC supply is standard for safety light curtains; verify your controller's input voltage and wiring distance to stay within the 10.0 m range.
