The Omron F3SJ-A0461N14 Safety Light Curtain creates a protective sensing field for finger protection across a 461 mm protective height. Its optical arrangement consists of 50 beam axes with a 9 mm beam gap, using an infrared LED light source operating at 870 nm and a 5 mm lens diameter. This configuration provides an NPN output for connection with compatible machine safety equipment. The unit operates from a 24 VDC supply and uses an M12 8-pin connector for electrical installation within the safety system. Its closely spaced beams support fine intrusion monitoring across the protected machine opening. The F3SJ-A0461N14 belongs to the F3SJ Series and forms part of the finger protection safety light curtain range associated with Omron machine safeguarding products.
The Omron F3SJ-A0461N14 is a F3SJ Safety Light Curtain commonly used in guarding, access detection, and protected-zone monitoring around automated machinery, conveyors, assembly modules, and packaging lines. It is often evaluated together with related models such as Omron F3SJ-A1395N30 (Hand/arm protection, 25 mm beam gap, 56 axis beams, 1395 mm protective height, NPN output, M12 Connector 8-pin) when engineers compare optical resolution, protective height, and wiring compatibility for specific machine layouts. Considering application type, beam gap, number of beams, protective height, output configuration, and connection method helps ensure proper selection for finger, hand, or body protection categories.
