SF4D-F55 Panasonic Safety Light Curtains

Out if stock but available for backorder.

Panasonic SF4D-F55 is a sensor array designed for finger-protection with intrinsic safety features, achieving safety levels of PL e / SIL3. It is compact, robust, and includes an interference prevention function, external device monitoring capability compatible with 8-core or 12-core cables, an interlock function with both manual and auto reset options, an override function exclusive to the 12-core cable, and a fixed blanking function. The housing is made of aluminum, while the sensing surface combines polycarbonate resin with stainless steel SUS304, and the upper and lower caps are crafted from nylon. This sensor comes pre-equipped with a connector for ease of installation. It operates within an ambient air temperature range of -10 to +55°C and is rated with an IP67 degree of protection against dust and water ingress. The protective height is 550 mm, and it features two digital outputs (selectable NPN/PNP open-collector / 24Vdc / 60-200mA) for safety outputs OSSD1+OSSD2, and one digital output (selectable NPN/PNP open-collector / 24Vdc / 100mA). The sensing distance ranges from 20cm to 7m in standard mode and extends from 80cm to 12m in long mode, with a current consumption of 120mA / 0.12 A for the emitter. It utilizes infrared light with a wavelength of 850 nm and can detect objects as small as 14mm in size.
