Light curtain meets worldwide safety standards

Omron Automation and Safety has introduced the F3SG-4RA series light curtain. According to the manufacturer, the unit meets safety standards throughout the world to protect either fingers or hands and arms. The IP67 wash-down-rated light curtain is supported by 24-hour, multilanguage, online diagnostics that allow operators around the world to check error details in their local language.

To reduce wiring and installation time, the unit comes with Smartclick™ connectors requiring a one-eighth turn to get a secure and reliable IP67 connection. Mounting brackets that slide onto channels in the light curtain body allow positioning anywhere along its length without additional screws, washers, and clamps. The wash-down-resistant housing eliminates the need for separate protective tubing to comply with IP67 enclosure requirements.
