Omron F3SG-R Easy Series Light Curtain Receiver, Sender, 48 Beam(s), 30 mm Resolution

This light curtain is a safety sensor designed to protect personnel and machinery by creating a monitored optical barrier in industrial automation environments. It operates as a receiver within a Type 4 safety arrangement, intended for applications requiring high-resolution detection across a near-to-long sensing range. The unit is suitable where quick interruption detection and broad lateral coverage are required to safeguard access to hazardous areas.

• 48 beams deliver dense object detection for operator protection
• 30mm beam pitch gives fine object discrimination and safety separation
• 0.3-20m scanning range supports near to long-distance presence sensing
• 7ms maximum response time enables rapid fault recognition and stop initiation
• 20m maximum protective width covers extensive guarded perimeters
• 28.8V maximum supply simplifies integration with low-voltage control systems

• Suitable for safeguarding conveyor access points in factories
• Ideal for perimeter protection around robotic workcells
• Used with press and cutting machinery for operator intrusion detection
• Can be used for loading bay access monitoring in automated lines
• Suitable for integration into safety circuits for material handling systems

The 30mm beam spacing defines the smallest object size reliably detected, enabling fine detection of fingers or tools crossing the curtain.

It functions from 0.3m up to 20m, maintaining beam integrity and protection over both short and long separations from the emitter.

The receiver accepts a maximum supply voltage of 28.8V, so supply and distribution must be specified to remain at or below this level.

It has a maximum response time of 7ms, providing prompt signalling for downstream safety stop functions.
