When an object — typically a hand or body part — enters that zone, the light curtain sends a stop signal to the machine's safety circuit. It belongs to the F3SJ series, a line of compact safety light curtains designed for integration into guarding applications around presses, robots, and automated assembly lines.
Deployment Context
As a safety light curtain, this part is deployed around hazard zones on machinery where personnel access must be detected. It connects to a safety controller or safety-rated PLC input, typically via an M12 connector, and requires alignment of the emitter and receiver units on either side of the guarded opening.
