Mutual interference is reduced without
need for interference prevention lines
Reducing the number of malfunctions
caused by extraneous light
The scan timing of the light curtain is automatically
shifted in order to reduce mutual interference.
A double scanning method and retry processing are new
functions exclusive to that are effective in eliminating
the effect of momentary extraneous light from peripheral

Light Curtain Type 2
SF2B SERIES Ver.2
Equipped with a digital error indicator so that
error details can be understood at a glance
Beam-axis alignment indicators show the
incident light position at a glance
The system constantly checks the light curtain for
problems such as incorrect cable wiring, disconnection,
short-circuits, internal circuit problems, and incoming
light problems.
If a problem should occur, details of the error appear on
the digital display. Therefore, smooth support is possible
if problems occur at startup and during maintenance
operations, even if assistance is given via telephone.
Beam-axis alignment indicators display the beam
channels of the light curtain in four blocks.
The blocks where the beam axes match will light up in
red in turn. When all the beam axes receive light, all the
LEDs light up green. Furthermore, a stability indicator
(STB.) lights up when there is sufficient incoming light.

Adapter cables and adapter mounting brackets are available so that previous peripheral
devices for light curtains can still be used
The light curtain SF2-A / SF2-N series (discontinued model), area sensor NA40 series, and SF1-N series
(discontinued model) can be replaced with the SF2B series using the current mounting holes and connection cables.
Selectable safety circuits
The light curtain unit has a built-in monitoring function for external devices (such as fused relay monitoring).
This supports the construction of light curtain peripheral safety circuits which do not use a safety relay unit, and
contributes to reduced costs and a more compact control panel. In addition, a connectable control unit is used, so
that a safety circuit that is easy to construct and easy to install can be selected.

Significant cost reduction is achieved by using corner mirror
By using a single corner mirror, light curtain and peripheral safety circuit for one
set are eliminated. Enables significant cost reduction and savings on wiring.
The control category is unchanged.
BSF4-AH80
When setting up the light curtains in the L-shape or U-shape,
usually two or three sets of the light curtains are required.
However, using the corner mirror to reflect the laser light
allows only one set of the light curtains to be set up at
the L-shape or U-shape.

Notes: 1) The “operating range” is the possible setting distance between the emitter and the receiver.
2) The SF2B-H8SL and SF2B-A4SL do not include a connector for series connection. Therefore, when connecting 3 sets in series, the sub-sensor can be
used only for the third set. Refer to “PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE (p.626~)” for details.
3) The distance between the tip of the light curtain and the top beam axis of the SF2B-H8SL and SF2B-A4SL is 22 mm 0.866 in.
4) Refer to “Definition of light curtain and area sensor sensing heights (p.727)” for details of the protective height.
5) The specifications of the sub-sensor for series connection are the same as for the light curtain, except for the current consumption.
E EMITTER
However, the sub-sensor is not equipped with an output.
6) Models which have an “ E EMITTER ” symbol in the model No. on the name plate are emitters, and those with a “ D RECEIVER ” symbol are receivers.

Notes: 1) Where measurement conditions have not been specified precisely, the conditions used were an ambient temperature of +20 °C +68 °F.
2) The SF2B series manufactured from October 2009 applies PLd and SIL2, which are based on IEC 61496-1: 2006(Safety of machinery - Electro-sensitive
protective equipment - Part 1). Due to the revision of international standard IEC 61496-1: 2012, the usage of Type 2 safety light curtain is limited to PLc
and SIL1 after May 10th, 2015.
3) Not compatible when using the bottom cap cable SF2B-CB05-A.
4) When using auxiliary output (AUX), the compatible cable SF2B-CB05-B (sold separately) cannot be used.
5) SF2B-H8-□ and SF2B-A4-□ cannot be connected in series. For more information, refer to ‘‘PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE (p.626~)’’.
6) When making series connection mixing SF2B-H□ and SF2B-A□, calculate by doubling the number of optical axes only for SF2B-A□, and make the total
number of optical axes fall below 128 axes.
(e.g.) When making series connection with SF2B-H36 and SF2B-A44, the total number of optical axes will be 124 axes. The number of optical axes for
SF2B-H36 + (number of optical axes for SF2B-A44 × 2) = total number of optical axes. 36 optical axes + (44 optical axes × 2) = 124 optical axes.
7) Intermediate supporting bracket MS-SF2B-2 is included with the following products. The number included varies as follows depending on the product.
1 set: SF2B-H□…Light curtain with 40 to 56 beam channels, SF2B-A□…Light curtain with 20 to 28 beam channels
2 sets: SF2B-H□…Light curtain with 64 to 80 beam channels, SF2B-A□…Light curtain with 32 to 40 beam channels
3 sets: SF2B-H□…Light curtain with 88 to 96 beam channels, SF2B-A□…Light curtain with 44 to 48 beam channels

• 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
machinery which cannot be stopped at any point in its operation cycle.
Self-diagnosis function
• This light curtain incorporates the self-diagnosis function. In case an
abnormality is detected during self-diagnosis, the light curtain is put
in the lockout state at that instant, and the control output (OSSD 1,
OSSD 2) is fixed at the OFF state. Refer to “Troubleshooting” and
the instruction manual and remove the cause of the abnormality.
• In order to maintain safe condition of light curtain,
inspect the beam interrupted status of the device
once a day or more. Failure to do so could delay the
detection of unexpected abnormality and increase the
degree of hazard, which may cause the malfunction of
light curtain, resulting in serious body injury or death.
• In order to check all abnormalities in the OSSD 1, OSSD 2
and auxiliary output, the beam interrupted status of
device must be checked. Perform either of two below to
inspect the device under beam interrupted status.
• Emission halt by test input (Emission halt function)

control machine can be stopped when either the control output
(OSSD 1) or auxiliary output turns to OFF. If the auxiliary output
is should not be used, the device cannot stop operation when
an unexpected error occurs during control output (OSSD 1)
failure, which may result in serious injury or death.
• The auxiliary output is incorporated in the emitter. It outputs ON at
the normal operation of device. It outputs OFF in the following cases:
• When an abnormality which needs emission halt status
occurs [for example, the control output (OSSD 1) shortcircuit and an error occurs.]
• While test input has been input
• The error cannot be transmitted to the control machine.
The alarm signal is output from the auxiliary output.

• This is the configuration for connecting multiple sets of emitters
and receivers facing each other in series. It is used when the
dangerous part can be entered from two or more directions. The
control outputs (OSSD 1, OSSD 2) turns OFF if any of the light
curtain is interrupted. For details, refer to the instruction manual.
Notes 1): Series connection connectors cannot be used with the SF2B-H8-□ and
SF2B-A4-□, and so series connection is not possible. The SF2B-H8SL and
SF2B-A4SL are not equipped with series connection connectors, so when
connecting three sets in series, they cannot be used in the middle position.
2): The total number of beam axes for the SF2B-A□ is a maximum of 96
when two sets are connected, and 64 when three sets are connected.
When SF2B-H□ and SF2B-A□ are combined in series connection,
double the number of the beam channels of SF2B-A□ to calculate the
total number of beam channels, which should be 128 or less.
Example: The total no. of beam channels for SF2B-H36 and SF2B-A44 is 124.
The no. of beam channels of SF2B-H36 + (the No. of beam channels
of SF2B-A44 × 2) = Total no. of beam channels
36 beam channels + (44 beam channels × 2) = 124 beam channels
For serial connections, connect the emitter and
receiver of the light curtain to the emitter and receiver
respectively of the sub-sensors for series connection
using the SF2B-CSL□ special series connection
cables. Wrong connection could generate the nonsensing area, resulting in serious injury or death.

SENSORS
Refer to the applicable regulations for the region where this
light curtain is to be used when setting up the light curtain. 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.
Sensing area
• Make sure to install this product such that any part of the human
body must pass through its sensing area in order to reach the
dangerous parts of the machinery. If the human body is not
detected, there is a danger of serious injury or death.
• Do not use any reflective type or retroreflective type
arrangement.
• Emitter and receiver that face each other should be from the
same model No. (with same beam axis pitch and number of
beam channels) and aligned in the vertical direction. If units from
different sets are connected together, it may cause blind spots in
the sensing area, and death or serious injury may result.
• Furthermore, facing several receivers towards one emitter, or
vice versa, could produce a non-sensing area or cause mutual
interference, which may result in serious injury or death.

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.

S: Safety distance
• 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. (Please
check the latest standards for the equation.)
For use in Europe (EU) (as EN 999)(Also applicable to ISO 13855)
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 speed of operator’s body or objects (mm/sec.)
Normally, taken as SF2B-H□ 2,000 (mm/sec.),
SF2B-A□ 1,600 (mm/sec.) for calculation.
T: Response time of total equipment (sec.)
T = Tm + TSF2B
Tm: Maximum halting time of machinery (sec.)
TSF2B: Response time of the SF2B series 0.015 (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 0 or less.
C = 8 × (d – 14)
d: Minimum sensing object diameter
SF2B-H□: d= 27 (mm) 1.063 (in), C = 104 (mm) 4.094 (in)
For SF2B-A□, C = 850 (mm) 33.465 (in) (constant)
• 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.

• Equation 2
S = K × (Ts + Tc + TSF2B + 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/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.)
TSF2B: Response time of light curtain 0.015 (sec.)
Tbm: Additional halting time tolerance for the brake monitor (sec.)
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
light curtain
SF2B-H□ Dpf = 2.676 (inch) ≈ 68 (mm)
