Omron F3SJ-A0305P20 Safety Light Curtain
Omron F3SJ-A0305P20 is a Safety Light Curtain designed for 20 mm hand protection across a 305 mm protective height. Its optical sensing field uses 20 infrared beams arranged with a 15 mm beam gap to detect opaque objects passing through the guarded machine opening. The operating range extends from 0.2 to 9 m, while electrical operation is based on a 24 VDC supply. An M12 8-pin connector and PNP transistor outputs provide connection with the safety system. Within the F3SJ Series, the F3SJ-A0305P20 provides compact 20 mm hand detection. For alternative sensing heights, explore 20 mm hand protection light curtains from Omron industrial safety solutions.

The Omron F3SJ-A0305P20 Safety Light Curtain provides 20 mm hand detection across a 305 mm protective height. Its sensing field consists of 20 infrared beams positioned with a 15 mm beam gap to detect opaque objects entering the guarded machine opening. The operating range extends from 0.2 to 9 m, while electrical operation is based on a 24 VDC ±20% supply. An M12 8-pin connector provides the safety-system interface. Two PNP transistor outputs support loads up to 300 mA each. Output short-circuit and power-supply reverse-polarity protection are specified, and the enclosure is rated IP65.
When evaluating the F3SJ-A0305P20, its 20 mm detection capability, 305 mm protective height, 15 mm beam spacing, PNP output format, and sensing distance should be considered together. These parameters define the hand-protection field and electrical connection requirements. A model with a different beam gap or shorter vertical field may be selected where the protected opening changes. For a 225 mm hand-protection configuration using a 20 mm beam gap and 10 beams, see Omron F3SJ-E0225N25.
