F3SJ-A0440P20

Light curtains are automatic sensing devices that are used to quickly detect the presence of people or objects. They are a perfect solution for creating safe working environments, preventing accidents, and protecting the health and safety of personnel. The F3SJ-A0440P20 is a light curtain from Omron’s Sysmac Safety range, which is designed to meet the most stringent safety requirements. The F3SJ-A0440P20 is capable of providing up to dual levels of detection, making it a versatile solution for a variety of machine safety applications.

Application Field

The F3SJ-A0440P20 light curtain is suitable for a range of applications, including automated machines with hazardous areas, such as machine tools, robot arms, press machines, and conveyor systems. It is also suitable for perimeter guarding of hazardous areas. The F3SJ-A0440P20 light curtain is designed for easy integration with safety PLCs, and can also be connected to safety mats or other control systems and can be connected to Omron’s Sysmac safety controllers.

Working Principle

The F3SJ-A0440P20 light curtain consists of an array of infrared transmitting and receiving sensors which have a predetermined activation distance. When an object enters the pre-set safety region, the infrared beam is broken and the receiver senses the interruption. The light curtain produces a signal output from the output terminals to stop the machine operation. The F3SJ-A0440P20 light curtain also offers dual-level detection sensitivity. The first level is a fixed detection distance and the second level is a variable detection distance. The variable detection distance is used to accurately detect the size of the object entering the safety zone, allowing for greater flexibility and the ability to customize the detection range for different objects.

Benefits

The F3SJ-A0440P20 light curtain provides many benefits to machinery and personnel. The system provides protection from both mechanical and electrical hazards, and is extremely reliable. It can be used for both static and dynamic protection, and is capable of detecting objects of any size. It is also very easy to install and configure, and requires minimal maintenance. The F3SJ-A0440P20 light curtain is also extremely cost effective and can be used in a variety of machine safety applications.
