What the 14 mm detection capability means for fit
The F3SG-4SRB1800-14 is a Type 4 safety light curtain from Omron's F3SG-SR series, with a 14 mm detection capability that qualifies as finger protection per IEC 61496-1. That 14 mm beam pitch means it catches fingers reaching into the hazard zone, not just hands or arms — so it is the right choice for access points where an operator's hands might approach a press, robot cell, or packaging machine.
Protective height and operating range
The 1800 mm protective height covers a full standing-height opening, and the 0.3 m to 10.0 m operating range gives flexibility for both short-reach and longer-span guarding. The 179 beams at 10 mm pitch ensure no gaps larger than the detection capability across the entire height.
Environmental sealing and washdown suitability
Rated IP65/IP67/IP67G — the IP67G rating means the sensor body and optics withstand high-pressure washdown with oil resistance, making it suitable for food-and-bev lines or any area where caustic cleaning agents are used.
Built-in blanking and muting
Blanking and muting functions are integrated, so you can mask fixed obstructions (like a conveyor frame) or temporarily bypass the curtain during a material pass without an external controller. That reduces wiring and panel space compared to a basic curtain that needs a separate muting module.
