We Can Simplify Your Light Curtain Selection Needs

OMRON Automation and Safety provides a variety of safety

light curtains to solve your optical guarding needs. We offer
compact models designed for machine locations where space is
tight, and we offer larger robust light curtains powerful enough to
guard large perimeters. We offer you a choice because when it
comes to automation safeguarding, one size does not fit all.

curtains for your guarding needs.
Three F3SJ types allow easy selection for your application.

D Omron's new STI F3SJ series of safety light curtains offers

a tailored approach for a variety of production environments.
Conventional safety light curtains offer full-featured models,
even when only simple intrusion detection is needed. The F3SJ
series offers a product range that allows you to choose the best
product according to your application needs.

The EASY type has been added for simple hand detection,
while the BASIC type adds the potential for series connection
and simple muting functions.

The F3SJ series now allows you to select the best safety
light curtain for your application environment without paying for
unused functions.

Feature Set Comparison

The MS4800 light curtain family is an all-purpose light curtain available in three distinct versions.
These versions are identified as the MS4800A, MS4800B and the MS4800S. The MS4800A and
MS4800B feature set (configuration) can be changed through the use of an external device called
the Programming Diagnostic Module (PDM) and on the MS4800S through selector switches.

PDM Functions
The PDM is used to pro-
gram, configure and trouble-
shoot MS4800A and MS4800B
systems.
A qualified person simply
plugs the PDM cable into a
mating connector on either
the transmitter or receiver. The
PDM draws power from the
curtain and allows quick dis- MS4800A &
play of the light curtain’s status MS4800B PDM Port MS4800S
for troubleshooting purposes. Function

WARNING!
DO NOT use this Protective Light Curtain where a risk assessment has determined that control reliability is
required, such as for hazardous machinery. Use only for equipment where the worst-case injury from an accident
can be remedied by simple first aid, as determined by a thorough risk assessment.
DO NOT use unless the device is installed, tested, and inspected according to Omron’s Installation Manual
This protective device meets the Type 2 requirements of IEC 61496. It DOES NOT meet U.S. OSHA 1910.217,
ANSI B11, or ANSI/RIA R15.06 requirements.
If you are unsure of which model of light curtain to choose, contact OMRON Automation and Safety. Failure to
comply with this warning could result in serious injury or death.

Safety Standards and Precautions

DO NOT use this Protective Light Curtain where a risk assessment has determined that control
reliability is required, such as for hazardous machinery. Use only for equipment where the worst-
case injury from an accident can be remedied by simple first aid, as determined by a thorough risk
assessment.
DO NOT use unless the device is installed, tested, and inspected according to Omron’s Installa-
tion Manual
This protective device meets the Type 2 requirements of IEC 61496. It DOES NOT meet U.S.
OSHA 1910.217, ANSI B11, or ANSI/RIA R15.06 requirements.
If you are unsure of which model of light curtain to choose, contact OMRON Automation and
Safety. Failure to comply with this warning could result in serious injury or death.
The MiniProtect MP2100 should only be used on machinery that can consistently and immediately
stop anywhere in its cycle or stroke. Never use a MiniProtect MP2100 on a full revolution clutched
power press or machine. If the light curtain does not protect all access to the point of operation, the
unprotected access must be guarded by other appropriate devices such as mechanical guards.
The purchaser, installer and employer have the responsibility to meet all local, state and federal
government laws, rules, codes or regulations relating to the proper use, installation, operation and
maintenance of this control and the guarded machine. See the Installation and Operation Manual for
additional information.
All application examples described are for illustration purposes only. Actual installations will differ

Light Duty Floor Stands
Light curtains and perimeter guards used to detect the torso
of personnel have specific mounting requirements per ANSI/RIA
R15.06 and other standards. These light duty stands are ideal for
mounting the bottom beam of the light curtain or perimeter guard
within the required 0.3 m (12 in.) from the floor. The new Light Duty
Floor Stand is a cost effective alternative to our more robust heavy
duty stand, and mounting hardware is included.

NOTE: Mirrors cannot be mounted using the Light Duty Floor
