The F3SJ-A1120P55 is a Type 4 safety light curtain from Omron's F3SJ-A series, designed for leg and body protection on access points to hazardous machinery. Its 55 mm detection capability means it reliably detects a human leg or torso entering the field — this is the finger/hand protection class per IEC 61496-2, so it is sized for perimeter guarding, not hand-in-die applications. The 1120 mm protective height and 50 mm beam pitch (23 beams total) cover a standard doorway or conveyor access zone up to 9.0 m range. Rated IP65 (dust-tight, water-resistant) means the emitter and receiver housings withstand washdown from hoses and splashing — suitable for food processing lines, packaging floors, or outdoor conveyor gantries where moisture and dust are present. The 24 VDC supply is standard for safety circuits; the blanking and muting functions let you mask fixed obstructions (e.g., a machine frame) or temporarily bypass the curtain during a material pass cycle without removing the safety function.

Frequently asked questions
What is the detection capability and what does it protect?
The detection capability is 55 mm, which means it is rated for leg and body protection. It will detect a human leg or torso entering the field but is not suitable for hand or finger detection — those require a finer beam pitch (14 mm or 30 mm).
What is the protective height and operating range?
Protective height is 1120 mm. Operating range is 0.2 m to 9.0 m, covering most machine access openings and conveyor zones.
What ingress protection does it carry?
IP65 — dust-tight and protected against water jets. Suitable for washdown environments in food and beverage or outdoor use.
