Advanced light curtains
at the forefront of the industry
Protection structure IP67 in a very compact size
Improved environmental resistance
performance and easier operability New structure
A seamless structure with minimal joints has now been developed.
The inner unit is protected by a cylindrical inner case. Seams on the
unit and lens surfaces have been greatly reduced so that particles
such as oil mists and dust are prevented from penetrating the case.
Thus, the environmental resistance performance could be raised.
SF4B series has passed the tests of IP65 and IP67 as
specified by IEC / JIS standards. (Ver.2 only)
IEC / JIS
Description
IP65
No harmful effect from direct
water jet from any direction
IP67
No water penetration from immersion
in water under specified conditions
* Refer to each standard for details of test conditions.
Inner case
Cylindrical inner case
protects the internal unit.
This new structure does not use adhesive
or double-sided tape on the joints like
the previous models. There is no
need to worry about water immersion
or corrosion such as a coolant causing
the adhesive to strip off.
Error details can be understood at a glance
Equipped with a digital error indicator
The system constantly checks the light curtain for problems
such as incorrect cable wiring, disconnection, short-circuits,
internal circuit problems, and incoming light problems. Details
of any electrical problems such as at equipment startup will
appear on the digital display. It is no longer necessary to
count the number of times the LED blinks, making the system
much more convenient.

PNP output and NPN output
in a single model!
Supports both PNP and NPN polarities in a single model
The SF4B series combines PNP transistor output and NPN transistor output in a single model. Overseas equipment that uses
PNP, replacement with NPN sensors, factories that are positively grounded, and transfer of equipment overseas are all
situations where the control circuits for a single model are suitable for use worldwide.
■ Polarity can be changed easily by changing wiring
When the output polarity setting wire (shielded) is
connected to 0 V, PNP output is selected, and when it
is connected to 24 V, it switches to NPN output.

Muting control function is built into light curtain
Safety circuits are selectable
A muting control function is provided to increase both safety and productivity
(excluding SF4B-□-03)
The light curtain is equipped with a
muting control function that causes the
line to stop only when a person passes
through the light curtain, and does not
stop the line when an object passes
through. The muting sensors and
muting lamps can be connected
directly to the light curtain so that a
exclusive controller is not required for
muting. This both reduces costs and
increases safety and productivity.

A commitment to design that is easy to use
Beam-axis alignment indicators show the incident light position at a glance
Beam-axis alignment indicators display the beam channels of the light curtain in four blocks. When the beam channel at the
bottommost channel (or topmost channel), which is used as a reference for beam-axis alignments, is correctly aligned, the
LED blinks red. After this, each block lights red as the beam axes successively become aligned. When all channel beam axes
are aligned, all LEDs light green. The display also has an additional stability indicator (STB) so that setup can be carried out
with greater stability.

Laser alignment tool for easy installation
Greatly improved ease of installation (excluding SF4B-□G□)
The tool performs beam-axis alignment using a laser
beam spot. As the tool is battery-operated, it is possible
to perform beam-axis alignment before supplying power
to the equipment.
The hexagon-socket head bolts used for aligning the
beam axis can be accessed from the front of the light
curtain. Beam adjustment can be carried out easily while
turning the

Mutual interference is reduced without
needing interference prevention lines
Reducing the number of malfunctions
caused by extraneous light
The light curtain is equipped with the ELCA (Extraneous
Light Check & Avoid) function. Because it automatically
shifts the scan timing of the light curtain in order to avoid
interference, it is not necessary to wire interference
prevention lines between machineries.
Double scanning method and retry processing are two
new functions exclusive to our company, which
successfully eliminate the effects of momentary
extraneous light from peripheral equipment. The
reduction in operating errors caused by extraneous light
reduces frequent stopping of machinery.
Options exclusive for light curtain are available
for an easy construction of safety circuit
Handy-controller SFB-HC* that enables
the user to select a variety of settings
SFB-HC
Separate muting control function for each beam channel
The handy-controller SFB-HC* (optional) can be used to
carry out muting control for specified beam axes only.
Because individual beam axis can be specified to suit
the object, separate guards to prevent entry do not need
to be set up.
While muting control is active (line operating)
Line stopped
SFB-HC
For example, depending on the height of the object, the muting function
can be activated for 10 beam channels starting from the bottom, so that
if the 11th or subsequent beam channels are interrupted, it is judged that
a person has entered the area and the line stops.
* A handy-controller cannot be used with the SF4B-□-01,
SF4B-H□G-01, SF4B-□-03 and the SF-C14EX-01.
Specific beam axes can be deactivated
The SF4B series incorporates a fixed blanking function.
A variable number of beam axes can be deactivated
The SF4B series incorporates a floating blanking function.
The SF4B series is equipped with a fixed blanking function which
allows specific beam channels to be selectively interrupted without
causing the control output (OSSD) to output the OFF signal. This
function is convenient for use with applications in which certain
fixed obstacles tend to block specific beam channels.
Furthermore, this function provides greater safety as the control
output (OSSD) will automatically output the OFF signal if the fixed
obstacles are subsequently removed from the sensing area.
1, 2 or 3 non-specified beam channels can be deactivated. If the
number of beam channels that are blocked is less than or equal to
the set number of beam channels, then the control output (OSSD)
will not output the OFF signal. This function is useful when the
positions of obstacles within the sensing area must be changed
during object rearrangement, or when an object passes through
the light curtain’s sensing area.
Note: When the floating blanking function is used, the
acceptable size for the minimum sensing object changes.
Refer to “PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE” (p.30) for
details.

A variety of other functions can be selected
Emission intensity control function
This function reduces the amount of emitting light. The two modes,
normal mode and short mode, can be selected (factory setting:
normal mode).
Monitoring function
This function allows the user to confirm the details of
each light curtain setting.
Protection function
A password protection can be used to avoid
unauthorized changes of the settings (factory setting:
no password protection).
Copy function
Setting details can be copied to other light curtains.
This is helpful if you need the same settings on
different devices.
Muting lamp diagnosis setting
When the muting lamp diagnosis is disabled, the muting
function will continue to operate even if the lamp is blown.

PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE
Interlock function
• The selection of manual reset / automatic reset is
available by applying the interlock input wiring. The
interlock becomes available by selecting manual reset.
(Refer to the SF4B manual for details.)
Emission halt function
• This function stops the emission process of the emitter.
You can select whether emission is on or halted by
means of the connection status for the emission halt
input / reset input wire (pink).
• During emission halt, the control outputs (OSSD 1,
OSSD 2) become OFF status.
• By using this function, malfunction due to extraneous
noise or abnormality in the control outputs (OSSD 1,
OSSD 2) and the auxiliary output can be determined
even from the machinery side.
• Normal operation is restored when the emission halt
input / reset input wire (pink) is connected to 0 V or +V.
(Refer to the SF4B manual for details.)
Auxiliary output (Non-safety output)
• This light curtain incorporates the auxiliary output
(yellowgreen / black) for the non-safety output. The
auxiliary output is incorporated with the emitter.
(Refer to the SF4B manual for details.)
External device monitoring function
• This is the function for checking whether the external safety
relay connected to the control outputs (OSSD 1, OSSD 2) perform
normally in accordance with the control outputs (OSSD 1, OSSD 2)
or not. Monitor the contacting point “b” of the external safety relay,
and if any abnormality such as deposit of the contacting point, etc.
is detected, change the status of the light curtain into lockout one,
and turn OFF the control outputs (OSSD 1, OSSD 2).
(Refer to the SF4B manual for details.)
Muting function
• This function turns the safety function of this light curtain
into disabled temporarily. When the control outputs
(OSSD 1, OSSD 2) are ON, this function is available for
passing the workpiece through the sensing area of the
light curtain without stopping the machinery.
The muting function becomes valid when all the
conditions listed below are satisfied.
However, this function connot be used with the
SF4B-□-03.
1 The control outputs (OSSD 1, OSSD 2) shall be ON.
2 The incandescent lamp with 3 to 10 W shall be
connected to the muting lamp output (red).
3 The output of the muting sensors A and B shall be
changed from OFF (open) to ON. At this time, the
time difference occurred by changing the output of the
muting sensors A and B into ON status shall be within
0.03 to 3 sec.
• The following devices, photoelectric sensor with
semiconductor output, inductive proximity sensor,
position switch on N.O. (Normally open) contact, etc. are
available for applying to the muting sensor.
• In case of using the muting function, please order 12-core
cable.
(Refer to the SF4B manual for details.)
30
Refer to the manual on our website for details.
Override function
• This function sets the safety function of this light curtain
enabled forcibly. When using the muting function, the
override function can be used to start the machinery at
times such as when the control outputs (OSSD 1 and
OSSD 2) are OFF or when the muting sensors are ON
when the line is to be started.
The override function becomes valid when all the
conditions listed below are satisfied.
However, this function cannot be used with the
SF4B-□-03.
(Refer to the SF4B manual for details.)
Series connection
Connectable up to 3 sets of light curtains (however, 192 beam channels max.)
(Refer to the SF4B manual for details.)
Parallel connection
Connectable up to 3 sets of light cartains
(Refer to the SF4B manual for details.)
Series and parallel mixed connection
Connectable up to 3 sets of light curtains (however, 192 beam channels max.)
(Refer to the SF4B manual for details.)
Wiring
Refer to the applicable regulations for the region where this
device is to be used when setting up the device. In addition,
make sure that all necessary measures are taken to prevent
possible dangerous operating errors resulting from earth faults.
• Make sure to carry out the wiring in the power supply off
condition.
• Verify that the supply voltage variation is within the rating.
• If power is supplied from a commercial switching
regulator, ensure that the frame ground (F.G.) terminal of
the power supply is connected to an actual ground.
• In case noise generating equipment (switching regulator,
inverter motor, etc.) is used in the vicinity of this sensor,
connect the frame ground (F.G.) terminal of the
equipment to an actual ground.
• Do not run the wires together with high-voltage lines or
power lines or put them in the same raceway. This can
cause malfunction due to induction.
Part description and function
• (Refer to the SF4B manual for details.)
Others
• Do not use during the initial transient time (2 sec.) after
the power supply is switched on.
• Avoid dust, dirt and steam.
• Take care that the light curtain does not come in direct
contact with water, oil, grease, or organic solvents, such
as, thinner, etc.
• Take care that the light curtain is not directly exposed
to fluorescent light from a rapid-starter lamp or a high
frequency lighting device, as it may affect the sensing
performance.
PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE
• When this device is used in the “PSDI
mode”, an appropriate control circuit must
be configured between this device and the
machinery. For details, be sure to refer to the
standards or regulations applicable in each
region or country.
• To use this product in the U.S.A., refer to
OSHA 1910. 212 and OSHA 1910. 217 for
installation, and in Europe, refer to EN ISO
13855 as well. Observe your national and
local requirements before installing this
product.
Refer to the manual on our website for details.
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.
Also, the below calculation is valid only when
the intrusion direction is perpendicular to the
sensing area. 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.
• This catalog is a guide to select a suitable product. Be
sure to read instruction manual attached to the product
prior to its use.
• Both emitter and receiver are combined adjusted on
factory setting, please apply both emitter and receiver
with the same serial No. The serial No. is indicated on
the plates of both emitter and receiver.
(Indicated under model No.)
• Make sure to carry out the test run before regular operation.
• This safety system is for use only on machinery in which the dangerous
parts can be stopped immediately, either by an emergency stop unit
or by disconnecting the power supply. Do not use this system with

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.)
Normally taken as 2,000 (mm/sec.) for calculation
T: R
esponse time of total equipment (sec.)
T = Tm + TSF4B
Tm: Maximum halting time of machinery (sec.)
TSF4B: Response time of the SF4B series (sec.)
C: Additional distance calculated from the size of the
minimum sensing object of the light curtain (mm)
However, the value of “C” cannot be less than 0.
C = 8 × (d – 14)
d: Minimum sensing object diameter (mm)

PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE
• 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. For calculating “Tm” (maximum halt time of
the machinery), use a special device called a “brake
monitor”.
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.

afety 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/sec.) ≈ 1,600 (mm/sec.)}
ANSI B11.19 does not define the intrusion velocity
“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 light curtain (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 of the

Handy-controller
This device enables to set each function
using the handy-controller SFB-HC (optional).
(However, a handy-controller cannot be used
with the SF4B-□-01, the SF4B-□-03
and the SF-C14EX-01.) 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
handy-controller for details of the function settings for
using handy-controller SFB-HC (optional).
Troubleshooting
• Refer to the SF4B manual for details.
Corner mirror
• Be sure to carry out maintenance while
referring to the instruction manual for the
SF4B series of light curtains.
• Do not use if dirt, water, or oil, etc. is
attached to the reflective surface of this
product. Appropriate sensing range may not
be maintained due to diffusion or refraction.
• Make sure that you have read the instruction
manual for the corner mirror thoroughly
before setting up the corner mirrors and
light curtains, and follow the instructions
given. If the equipment is not set up correctly
as stipulated in the instruction manual,
incident light errors may result in unexpected
situations which may result in serious injury
or death.
• Please download the instruction manuals
from our website.
• Light curtain SF4B series cannot be used
as a retroreflective type. Avoid installing the
light curtain as a retroreflective type when
this product is applied.
