The Omron F3SJ-A1340P25-TS is a Type 4 safety light curtain with a 25 mm detection capability, which means it is rated for hand protection per IEC 61496-1/2. The 20 mm beam pitch and 67 beams produce a 1340 mm protective height — that is the zone the curtain guards, not the overall housing length. The operating range spans 0.2 m to 9.0 m, so it works across a typical machine opening or hazard zone up to 9 meters between emitter and receiver. The 25 mm detection capability is the key fit parameter: it catches a 25 mm diameter object (a hand or finger) reaching into the guarded area. For applications requiring finer resolution — fingertip detection — you would step down to a 14 mm model. The 1340 mm height covers a standing operator's reach zone on a vertical press or assembly station.
Deployment context
This suits the light curtain for washdown environments in food processing, packaging lines, or machining cells where coolant mist is present. The 24 VDC supply is standard for safety circuits; the muting and blanking functions (listed features) allow the curtain to ignore fixed obstructions or be temporarily overridden during material feed cycles.
