The Omron F3SJ-A1700P25-TS is a Type 4 safety light curtain from the F3SJ-A series, rated for hand protection with a 25mm detection capability. That 25mm figure is the smallest object the curtain reliably detects — a hand or finger reaching past the plane triggers the safety output. With a 20mm beam pitch and 85 beams across a 1700mm protective height, this unit covers a vertical zone tall enough for a standing operator's full reach envelope. The operating range spans 0.2m to 7.0m, so it fits both close-proximity machine guarding and longer access zones on a production line.
Deployment context
Rated IP65 — dust-tight and protected against water jets — so the sensor head and optics withstand washdown environments common in food processing, packaging, and automotive assembly lines. The 24VDC supply is standard for safety circuits; the blanking and muting function built into this variant allows fixed or floating object suppression and temporary bypass during material transfer, which reduces nuisance trips on automated lines without compromising the safety integrity.
