A new concept in compact light curtains
The SF4B-C series comes in the previously unavailable size of 20 (W) × 27.4 (D) mm 0.787 (W)
× 1.079 (D) in. These light curtains have been designed to be compact, lightweight, and easy to
install, and they offer the extensive selection of safety features that you’ve come to expect from
Panasonic Industrial Devices SUNX, including muting and blanking.

Light weight
Plastic and metal
The SF4B-C series features a proprietary double structure that combines a plastic body
that is designed to minimize weight with a metal inner frame that increases the device’s toughness.

Thanks to its plastic body, the SF4B-C
series is 45% lighter* than previous
models with aluminum enclosures. This
design helps reduce the overall weight
of the system during transport and
when shipping it overseas.

width (protection height)
of 1,623.4 mm 63.913 in
Despite its compact, plastic body, the
SF4B-C series features a metal inner
frame that increases toughness and limits
flex, allowing detection widths (protection
heights) ranging from 263.4 mm to
1,623.4 mm 10.370 in to 63.913 in.
High functionality
Large multi-purpose indicator
(SF4B-□CA-J05 only)
The SF4B-C series incorporates a large multi-purpose indicator (orange) positioned at workers' eye
level. The indicator signals the presence of the light curtain, helping to prevent stoppages due to
inadvertent interruption of its beams. The indicator can be used in a variety of applications, including
as a muting indicator or work indicator.
Exceptional visibility
from the side
The large multi-purpose indicator
shines brightly through the plastic body
to ensure exceptional visibility from the
side.

SF4B-C SERIES
High functionality
The SFB-HC handycontroller (optional)
offers easy access to
settings for a range of
functionality.
Muting control function for
individual beams: Limit the
(SF4B-□CA-J05 only)
muting area
During muting
(line operating)
Fixed blanking function:
Choose active breams
Line stopped
The SFB-HC handy-controller (optional)
allows you to perform muting control for
certain beams only. Since you can specify the
beams, there is no need to install a separate
guard to prevent incursions. For example, if
you use muting control from the lowermost
beam to the 10th beam, the light curtain will
detect any interruption of the 11th or higher
beam as a person and stop the machinery.
The SFB-HC handy-controller provides a
fixed blanking function that prevents
control output (OSSD) from turning off
even if certain beams are interrupted.
This capability is convenient in
applications where an obstruction always
interrupts certain beams. Additionally, a
high level of safety is provided since
control output (OSSD) is forcibly turned
off in the event the obstruction moves
outside the detection area.
Using output and indicators based on
the unstable light reception monitor to
enable preventive maintenance
By setting the auxiliary output change function to off or on when
light reception becomes unstable, you can have the light curtain
provide notification in the event of a reduction in the amount of light
being received due to beam misalignment or dirt via auxiliary
output (non-safety output) in addition to the light reception indicator.

When light is interrupted
(see Note 2): Off
Notes: 1) An incident light intensity value of 100% is used as the threshold at
which control output (OSSD1, OSSD2) changes from off to on.
2) Interruption of the light refers to the presence of a light-blocking
obstruction in the detection area.
3) This setting is not available when using muting control for
individual beams, fixed blanking, or floating blanking.
The floating blanking function allows you
to disable up to three unspecified beams.
Control output (OSSD) will not turn off as
long as the number of interrupted beams
is less than the set number of beams.
This capability is convenient when an
obstruction must move inside the
detection area during setup changes or
when loading materials inside the light
curtain’s detection area.
*The min. sensing object will change when the
floating blanking function is used.
High functionality
Extensive array of
other functions
■ PNP / NPN polarity support
Since a single model number can be switched between PNP and
NPN input, fewer model numbers need to be registered.
■ External device monitor function
External devices (such as safety relays, etc.) can be directly
connected to the handy-controller without any dedicated unit,
simplifying installation, reducing costs, and helping avoid various
issues and problems.
■ Extraneous light check & avoid (ELCA) function
The ELCA function reduces interference without the need for an
interference prevention line.
■ Beam alignment indicator
A beam alignment indicator divides the light curtain’s beams into
four equal displays, allowing you to see at a glance where light is
being received.

L > 3m 9.843 ft) as required by IEC 61496-2, ANSI/UL 61496-2.
However, install this device away from reflective surfaces
considering an effective aperture angle of ±3° to take care of
beam misalignment, etc. during installation.
Handy-controller
This device enables to set each function using
the handy-controller SFB-HC (optional). Among
the functions, the contents related to the safety
distance such as the size of the minimum
sensing object and response time are varied
depending on the setting condition. When
setting each function, re-calculate the safety
distance, and make enough space larger than
the calculated safety distance. Failure to do so
might cause the accident that the device cannot
stop quickly before reaching the dangerous
area of the machinery, resulting in the serious
injury or death.
••Refer to the instruction manual enclosed with the handycontroller for details of the function settings for using
handy-controller SFB-HC (optional).

PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE
Safety distance
••Calculate the safety distance correctly, and
always maintain a distance which is equal to
or greater than the safety distance, between
the sensing area of this light curtain and the
dangerous parts of the machinery. (Please
check the latest standards for the equation.)
If the safety distance is miscalculated or if
sufficient distance is not maintained, there is
a danger of serious injury or death.
••Before designing the system, refer to the
relevant standards of the region where this
device is to be used and then install this
device.

the floating blanking function is being used.
Calculate the safety distance with the proper
size of the minimum sensing object and
appropriate equation.

Note: Refer to P. 5 for details of the floating blanking function.
••Safety distance is calculated based on the following
equation when a person moves perpendicular (normal
intrusion) to the sensing area of the light curtain.
In case the intrusion direction is not perpendicular to the
sensing area, be sure to refer to the relevant standard
(regional standard, specification of the machine, etc.) for
details of the calculation.
For use in Europe (EU) (as EN 999) (Also applicable to ISO 13855 / JIS B 9715)
For intrusion direction perpendicular to the sensing area
••Equation (1)
S=K×T+C
S: Safety distance (mm)
Minimum required distance between the sensing area
surface and the dangerous parts of the machine
K: Intrusion velocity of operator’s body or object (mm/sec.)
Taken as 2,000 (mm/sec.) for calculation
T: Response time of total equipment (sec.)
T = Tm + TSF4B
Tm: Maximum halting time of machinery (sec.)
TSF□C: Response time of the SF4B-C series (sec.)
C: Additional distance calculated from the size of the
minimum sensing object of the SF4B-C series (mm)
However, the value of C cannot be under 0.
C = 8 × (d - 14)
d: Minimum sensing object diameter (mm)
22
Refer to the instruction manual for details.
The instruction manual can be download from our website.
••For calculating the safety distance “S”, there are the
following five cases.
First calculate by substituting the value K = 2,000
(mm/sec.) in the equation above. Then, classify the
obtained value of “S” into three cases, 1) S < 100, 2)
100 ≤ S ≤ 500, and 3) S > 500. For Case
3) S > 500, recalculate by substituting the value K =
1,600 (mm/ sec.). After that, classify the calculation
result into two cases,
4) S ≤ 500 and 5) S > 500. For details, refer to the
instruction manual enclosed with this product.
••When this device is used in the “PSDI mode”, an
appropriate safety distance “S” must be calculated.
For details, be sure to refer to the standards or
regulations applicable in each region or country.
••Equation (1)
S=K×T+C
S: Safety distance (mm)
K: Intrusion velocity of operator’s body or object (mm/sec.)
Taken as 1,600 (mm/sec.) for calculation
T: Response time of total equipment (sec.)
T = Tm + TSF4B
Tm: Maximum halting time of machinery (sec.)
TSF□C: Response time of the SF4B-C series (sec.)
C: Additional distance calculated from the size of the
minimum sensing object of the SF4B-C series (mm)
C = 850 (mm) (Constant)
For use in the United States of America (as per ANSI/RIA 15.06)
••Equation (2)
S = K × (TS + TC + TSF4B + Tbm) + Dpf
S: Safety distance (mm)
Minimum required distance between the sensing area
surface and the dangerous parts of the machine
K: Intrusion velocity {Recommended value in OSHA is
63 (inch/s) [≈ 1,600 (mm/sec.)] }
ANSI/RIA 15.06 does not define the intrusion speed
“K”. When determining K, consider possible factors
including physical ability of operators.
TS: Halting time calculated from the operation time of the
control element (air valve, etc.) (sec.)
TC: Maximum response time of the control circuit required
for functioning the brake (sec.)
TSF4B: Response time of the SF4B-C series (sec.)
Tbm: Additional halting time tolerance for the brake
monitor (sec.)
The following equation holds when the machine is
equipped with a brake monitor.
Tbm = Ta - (TS + TC)
Ta: Setting time of brake monitor (sec.)
When the machine is not equipped with a brake
monitor, it is recommended that 20 % or more of (TS
+ TC) is taken as additional halting time.
Dpf: Additional distance calculated from the size of the
minimum sensing object of the device (mm)
SF4B-H□C (A-J05): Dpf = 61.2 mm 2.409 in
SF4B-A□C (A-J05): Dpf = 129.2 mm 5.087 in
Dpf = 3.4 × (d - 0.276) (inch)
≈ 3.4 × (d - 7) (mm)
d: Minimum sensing object diameter 0.985 (inch) ≈ 25 (mm)
[SF4B-H□C (A-J05)]
Minimum sensing object diameter 1.772 (inch) ≈ 45 (mm)
[SF4B-A□C (A-J05)]
••When the floating blanking function is applied, the
minimum sensing object becomes large. According to
ANSI/RIA 15.06,
Dpf = 900 mm (3 ft) when d > 64 mm (2.5 inches).
