Today Lindsey Shepard will be introducing the F3SG-RA, the latest safety light curtain from Omron Automation. The F3SG-RA light curtains offer superior machine safeguarding and operator protection.
With a new compact design, easy set up and installation, and stable operation, the F3SG-RA is the perfect solution to your next safety light curtain application.
The slim housing has a cross-section footprint that is approximately 60% smaller than the previous model measuring only 35x35mm. This means you have an overall smaller footprint with increased structural integrity.
This light curtain offers a rugged and robust construction and all models are equipped with an IP67 rated housing that can be used in harsh conditions. The housing is designed to resist wash-down environments and shocks caused by sudden human contact or a dropped tool.
Because this model has 5 times the torsion resistance of that of its predecessor, the risk of optical axis misalignment due to vibration or aging can be reduced.
The newly designed high-power optical system provides best-in-class light transmission and operating range. This allows stable operation even in dusty environments where light transmission is reduced.
The F3SG-RA is the first light curtain offered by Omron to give you 2 programming options. You can program the light curtain via the traditional dip switch method, or you can now plug the light curtain into your personal computer to quickly program via the free SD Manager 2 software. The configuration software will drastically reduce installation time and headaches as well as allow for advanced system monitoring, troubleshooting, and predictive maintenance.
The light curtain offers built-in muting that requires no external muting controller. The blanking function disables specific beams of the safety light curtain. A warning zone can be set to alert people before they enter a danger zone using single or series-connected units when horizontally mounted.
14mm and 30mm resolution models are available. The 14mm resolution has a max range of 10meters and protective heights from 160mm up to 2080mm. the 30mm resolution models have a max range of 20 meters and protective heights from 190mm up to 2510mm.
