What the 14 mm detection means for fit
The F3SG-4SRA1000-14 is a Type 4 safety light curtain from the F3SG-SR series, built for finger-protection applications per IEC 61496-1. Its 14 mm detection capability means it catches fingers reaching into the hazard zone — not just hands or limbs — so it suits press brakes, assembly stations, and robotic cells where operators reach close to the point of operation. The 0.3 m to 10.0 m operating range covers both short-reach guarding (e.g., around a small benchtop press) and longer spans across conveyor in-feed zones. The 1000 mm protective height defines the guarded area; a 99-beam array at 10 mm pitch delivers that coverage with no blind spots.
Environmental sealing and washdown readiness
Rated IP65/IP67/IP67G — the IP67G suffix means the sensor body and optics withstand high-pressure washdown with oil resistance, making it suitable for food-and-bev lines, machining coolant environments, and outdoor installations.
Built-in blanking and muting
Blanking lets the curtain ignore fixed obstructions (e.g., a workpiece fixture) without disabling the entire zone; muting temporarily suspends the safety output during a defined material pass-through. Both are configured via the controller, not the sensor head, so the F3SG-4SRA1000-14 itself is a straightforward emitter/receiver pair that mates to the F3SG-SR control unit.
