Omron F3SG-R Advanced Series Light Curtain Sender, Receiver, 24 Beam(s), 30 mm Resolution

This light curtain is a safety sensor system designed to protect personnel around industrial machinery by detecting intrusion into hazardous zones. It comprises a sender and receiver pair that form an optical protective barrier suitable for medium-range installations. The unit operates from a 24V supply and is intended for fixed mounting on equipment where safeguarding of hands or arms is required, offering selectable safety performance in industrial environments.

• 24 beams providing multi-point detection and clear object discrimination
• 30mm beam resolution enabling detection of small opaque objects
• 0.3-10m scanning distance for flexible machine placement
• Type 2 safety classification supporting simpler safety circuits
• Maximum response time 8ms reducing stopping distance
• Optical sender receiver light curtain system removes sync cabling

• Suitable for safeguarding press and forming stations with compact guards
• Used with robotic cells requiring hand and arm protection
• Ideal for short-run machines where reduced wiring is needed
• Can be used for conveyor access control with partial muting
• Appropriate for retrofitting to existing machine guards for improved safety

It runs on 24V DC and provides selectable transistor safety outputs in either PNP or NPN mode via switchable configuration.

Up to three segments can be cascaded to provide continuous coverage with a combined beam count limit of 255 and 10m maximum between sensors.

The receiver includes status LEDs that report beam, communication, steady-state and error conditions to assist in setup and troubleshooting.

Operating range selection is supported, allowing long or short-range modes to be chosen to match installation depth and ambient conditions.
