That 25 mm figure is the smallest object the curtain reliably catches — fingers or a hand reaching through the beam array will trip the safety output before they reach the hazard. The 700 mm protective height covers a vertical zone just over two feet tall, and the 20 mm beam pitch across 35 beams gives you a dense detection field for that height. Operating range spans 0.2 m to 9.0 m, so you can set it back from the machine opening or mount it close in a tight cell. IP65 rating means the sensor housing and optics withstand hose-directed water and dust ingress — suitable for washdown environments in food processing or machining lines where coolant mist and cleaning cycles are routine. Supply is 24 VDC, standard for safety circuits in most control panels.
Built-in blanking and muting functions let you mask fixed obstructions (brackets, conveyor frames) inside the detection zone and temporarily bypass the curtain during a workpiece pass-through without cycling the safety relay. That saves wiring a separate muting sensor pair in many applications.
