The Omron F3SG-4SRB1600-14 is a Type 4 safety light curtain from the F3SG-SR series, built for finger detection with a 14mm detection capability. That 14mm resolution means it catches fingers reaching into the hazard zone — finger-protection class per IEC 61496-1. The 1600mm protective height covers a wide access area, and the 0.3m to 10.0m operating range gives flexibility for guarding conveyor in-feeds, robot cells, or assembly stations.
The 10mm beam pitch and 159 beams create a dense detection grid — no gaps for a finger to slip through. The 24VDC supply is standard for safety circuits; plan for a dedicated safety-rated power source. IP65/IP67/IP67G means the sensor body and optics withstand washdown — suitable for food-and-bev lines where oil and water are present.
Built-in flexibility
Blanking and muting functions are built in — no external controller needed for fixed or floating blanking of conveyor pallets, or for muting zones during material pass-through. This reduces panel wiring and simplifies commissioning.
