SICK C2MT Series Light Curtain Receiver, Sender, 24 mm Resolution

This light curtain safety sensor 24V DC Type 2 C2MT is a Compact optical protective device designed for machine guarding and access protection in industrial settings. It operates as a receiver within a miniTwin twin-stick arrangement and supports standalone or cascaded configurations with optical synchronisation. The unit delivers monitored OSSD outputs via a 5-pin M12 system connection and is intended for integration where fast interruption detection and constrained-space installation are required.

• 13 MS response time provides Rapid intrusion detection
• 8m maximum scanning distance extends protected-area coverage
• 24mm beam resolution detects objects down to the specified aperture
• 24V DC supply supports standard industrial control systeMS
• IP65 enclosure rating enables use in non‑condensing environments

• Suitable for safeguarding access openings on production lines
• Ideal for perimeter protection of automated machinery
• Used with safety relays for restart interlock implementations
• Can be used for presence detection in material-handling systems

It accepts 24V DC with an operating range of 19.2V DC to 28.8V DC.

Outputs are PNP semiconductors, short-circuit protected and cross-circuit monitored as OSSD switching devices.

It operates between -20°C and +55°C and tolerates 15%-95% non‑condensing humidity.

System connection is via a 5-pin M12 plug with a 700mm cable length and permissible extension dependent on load and conductor cross-section.
