Precautions on mounting the sensor using One-touch Brackets
When using two One-touch Brackets to mount a sensor, the combination of One-touch M6 Bracket (or One-touch M8 Bracket) and Intermediate
Bracket at the both ends of the sensor must be positioned opposite each other. When using three or more Brackets, One-touch M6 Brackets (or
One-touch M8 Brackets) and Intermediate Brackets at other positions than the both ends must be in the same orientation.
(Good example 1)
(Good example 2)
(Bad example 1)
(Bad example 2)
Mount One-touch M6 Brackets (or One-touch M8 Brackets) according to the mounting positions of the emitter and receiver. The positions of
Intermediate Brackets mounted to the emitter and receiver must be aligned with each other.

F3SJ-E/F3SJ-B/F3SJ-A
Self-test Function
Fixed Blanking Function
External Test Function
Floating Blanking Function
A self-test is performed to check for errors when the power is turned
ON. Also, the self-test is regularly performed (within the response
time) while operating.
This function stops the emission using an external signal. It can be
used to verify that a safety system should properly stop when F3SJ is
interrupted.
External Device Monitoring Function
This function detects malfunctions, such as welding, in external relays
(or contactors) that control the hazardous part of a machine.
This function constantly monitors that a specified voltage is applied to
the receiver's external device monitoring input line, and the system
enters lockout state when an error occurs. The relay's operational
delay can be up to 300 ms without being evaluated as an error.
For example, if the normally closed N.C. contact does not close within
0.3 s after the safety outputs turn from ON to OFF, and a specified
voltage is not applied to the external device monitoring line, it is
evaluated as an error and the system enters a lockout state. To utilize
this function properly, use safety relays and contactors that have
force guided or mechanically linked contact structure.
Interlock Function
The F3SJ turns the safety outputs OFF when its power is turned on
or its beam is interrupted and holds this state until reset input is
applied. This state is called "interlock".
Two methods can be used to reset the interlock state: "auto reset that
automatically turns safety outputs ON when the interrupting object is
removed" and "manual reset mode that keeps safety outputs OFF
until a reset signal is provided, if the interrupting object is removed".
Auto Reset
When the interrupting object is removed from the detection zone, the
safety outputs automatically turn ON. Auto reset is used on machines
where a worker is not able to enter the area between the detection
zone and the hazardous part of the machine.
Manual Reset
When a reset input is given while no interrupting object exists in a
detection zone, the safety outputs turn ON. This allows the machine
to be manually reset using a reset switch after ensuring safety,
preventing unexpected startup.
Auxiliary Output Function
The auxiliary output is used to monitor the status of the F3SJ. This
output can be connected to a device such as programmable
controller.
Muting Function
Muting function temporarily disables safety function of the F3SJ,
keeping safety output ON even if beams are interrupted.
This makes it possible to install safety light curtains for AGV passage,
enabling both safety and productivity.
Override Function
The override function turns the safety outputs ON when the muting
start condition is not satisfied. If a workpiece stops while passing
through the F3SJ, as shown below, causing a muting error, the
normal state cannot be recovered unless the workpiece is removed
from the muting sensors and the detection field of the F3SJ. However,
the override function will mute the safety outputs of the F3SJ so that
the conveyor can be restarted to move the workpiece out of the
muting sensors and detection zone.
Partial Muting Function
Partial muting function secures safety without enabling muting except
for beams when a workpiece passes.
Position Detection Muting
A limit switch or other means is used to detect when the robot is in a
safe position, and muting is then applied.
41
Fixed blanking function disables a specific beam of the F3SJ. This
function keeps safety output ON even when part of machinery
equipment exists within a detection zone.
Floating blanking function increases the diameter of the F3SJ's
detection capability and turns OFF the safety output when multiple
objects are detected. When there is a moving object with a fixed width
in the detection area that we do not want to detect, the detection
function can be disabled.
Warning Zone Function
When an individual enters, a warning lamp lights or buzzer sounds
without stopping the equipment by dividing the detection zone into the
detection zone and a warning zone.
Setting Tool
The following setting tools (sold separately) can be purchased in
order to change or confirm various F3SJ-A parameters.
• F39-MC21 Setting Console
• F39-GWUM SD Manager Setting Support Software for the F3SJ
Series Connection Function
Up to 3 sets of the F3SJ-Bs or up to 4 sets of F3SJ-As can be seriesconnected. Series connection allows them to be used as a safety light
curtain, requiring only one set to be wired to a controller and
preventing mutual interference.

For users
WARNING
F3SJ-E F3SJ-B F3SJ-A
The FS3J must be installed, set, and integrated into the
mechanical control system by a qualified technician who has
received the appropriate training. Failure to make correct
settings may prevent detection of people and result in serious
injury.
F3SJ-A
When changing parameters with a setting tool (F39-GWUM or
F39-MC21), the change must be made and the contents of the
change must be managed by the person in charge of the system.
Unintentional or mistaken parameter changes may prevent
detection of people and result in serious injury.
For machines
WARNING
F3SJ-E F3SJ-B F3SJ-A
Do not use this sensor for machines that cannot be stopped by
electrical control. For example, do not use it for a pressing
machine that uses full-rotation clutch. Otherwise, the machine
may not stop before a person reaches the hazardous part,
resulting in serious injury.
F3SJ-B F3SJ-A
Do not use the auxiliary output or external indicator output for
safety applications. Human body may not be detected when
F3SJ fails, resulting in serious injury.
43
For installation
WARNING
F3SJ-E F3SJ-B F3SJ-A
Make sure to test the operation of the F3SJ after installation to
verify that the F3SJ operates as intended. Make sure to stop the
machine until the test is complete.
Unintended function settings may cause a person to go
undetected, resulting in serious injury.
F3SJ-E F3SJ-B F3SJ-A
Make sure to install the F3SJ at the safe distance from the
hazardous part of the equipment. Otherwise, the machine may
not stop before a person reaches the hazardous part, resulting
in serious injury.
F3SJ-E F3SJ-B F3SJ-A
Install a protective structure so that the hazardous part of a
machine can only be reached by passing through the sensor's
detection zone. Install the sensors so that part of the person is
always present in the detection zone when working in a
machine's hazardous zones. If a person is able to step into the
hazardous zone of a machine and remain behind the 's detection
zone, configure the system with an interlock function that
prevents the machine from being restarted. Otherwise it may
result in heavy injury.
F3SJ-B F3SJ-A
Install the interlock reset switch in a location that provides a
clear view of the entire hazardous area and where it cannot be
activated from within the hazardous area.
F3SJ-E F3SJ-B F3SJ-A
The F3SJ cannot protect a person from a projectile exiting the
hazardous zone. Install protective cover(s) or fence(s).
F3SJ-A
When detection of an area has been disabled by the fixed
blanking function, provide a protective structure around the
entire area that will prevent a person from passing through it and
reaching the hazardous part of the machinery. Failure to do so
may prevent detection of people and result in serious injury.
F3SJ-A
After setting the fixed blanking function, be sure to confirm that
a test rod is detected within all areas that require detection.
Failure to do so may prevent detection of people and result in
serious injury.
F3SJ-A
When the fixed blanking function or the floating blanking
function is used, the diameter for the smallest detectable object
becomes larger. Be sure to use the diameter for the smallest
detectable object for the fixed blanking function or the floating
blanking function when calculating the safety distance. Failure
to do so may prevent the machinery from stopping before a
person reaches the hazardous part of the machinery, and result
in serious injury.
F3SJ-B F3SJ-A
The muting and override functions disable the safety functions
of the device. Additional safety measures must be taken to
ensure safety while these functions are working.
F3SJ-E/F3SJ-B/F3SJ-A
F3SJ-B F3SJ-A
Install muting sensors so that they can distinguish between the
object that is being allowed to be pass through the detection
zone and a person. If the muting function is activated by the
detection of a person, it may result in serious injury.
F3SJ-B F3SJ-A
Muting lamps (external indicators) that indicate the state of the
muting and override functions must be installed where they are
clearly visible to workers from all the operating positions.
F3SJ-E F3SJ-B F3SJ-A
Do not use the sensor system with mirrors in a regressive
reflective configuration. Doing so may hinder detection. It is
possible to use mirrors to "bend" the detection zone to a 90degree angle.
Reflector
F3SJ-A
Muting times must be precisely set according to the application
by qualified personnel who have received appropriate training.
In particular, if the muting time limit is to be set to infinity, the
person who makes the setting must bear responsibility.
F3SJ-B F3SJ-A
Use two independent input devices for the muting inputs.
F3SJ-B F3SJ-A
Install the F3SJ, Muting Sensors, or a protective wall so that
workers cannot enter hazardous areas while muting is in effect,
and set muting times.
F3SJ-B F3SJ-A
Position the switch that is used to activate the override function
in a location where the entire hazardous area can be seen, and
where the switch cannot be operated from inside the hazardous
area. Make sure that nobody is in the hazardous area before

Installation Conditions
Detection Zone and Approach F3SJ-E F3SJ-B F3SJ-A
WARNING
Install a protective structure so that the hazardous part of a
machine can only be reached by passing through the sensor's
detection zone. Install the sensors so that part of the person is
always present in the detection zone when working in a
machine's hazardous zones.
If a person is able to step into the hazardous zone of a machine
and remain behind the F3SJ's detection zone, configure the
system with an interlock function that prevents the machine
from being restarted. Failure to do so may result in serious
injury.
Install the interlock reset switch in a location that provides a clear
view of the entire hazardous zone and where it cannot be activated
from within the hazardous zone.
The F3SJ cannot protect a person from a projectile exiting the
hazardous zone. Install protective cover(s) or fence(s).
Right positions
The hazardous zone of a machine can be reached only by
passing through the sensor's detection zone.
F3SJ-E F3SJ-B F3SJ-A
Make sure to perform wiring while the power supply is OFF.
Others F3SJ-E F3SJ-B F3SJ-A
WARNING
To use the F3SJ in PSDI mode (Reinitiation of cyclic operation by
the protective equipment), you must configure an appropriate
circuit between the F3SJ and the machine. For details about
PSDI, refer to OSHA1910.217, IEC 61496-1, and other relevant
standards and regulations.
While working, a person is inside the sensor's detection zone.
Do not try to disassemble, repair, or modify this product. Doing
so may cause the safety functions to stop working properly.
Do not use the F3SJ in environments where flammable or
explosive gases are present. Doing so may result in explosion.
Perform daily and 6-month inspections for the F3SJ. Otherwise,
the system may fail to work properly, resulting in serious injury.
Do not use radio equipment such as cellular phones, walkietalkies, or transceivers near the F3SJ.
Incorrect installation
It is possible to reach the hazardous zone of a machine
without passing through the sensor's detection zone.
Note: For customers using the F3SJ-BP25-01TS:
The functions available are external test, lockout reset,
auxiliary output and series connection.
A person is between the sensor's detection zone
and the hazardous zone of a machine.

F3SJ-E/F3SJ-B/F3SJ-A
Safety Safety Distance F3SJ-E F3SJ-B F3SJ-A
The safety distance is the distance that must be set between the F3SJ
and a machine's hazardous part to stop the hazardous part before a
person or object reaches it. The safety distance varies according to
the standards of each country and the individual specifications of
each machine. In addition, the calculation of the safety distance
differs if the direction of approach is not vertical to the detection zone
of the F3SJ. Always refer to relevant standards.
Safety distance (S)
How to calculate the safety distance specified by
International Standard ISO 13855 (European Standard EN
ISO 13855) (Reference)
Detection Zone Orthogonal to Direction of Approach
S = K x T + C . . . Formula (1)
• S: Safety distance
• K: Approach speed to the detection zone
• T: Total response time of the machine and F3SJ
• C: Additional distance calculated by the detection capability of
the F3SJ
Use K = 2,000 mm/s and C = 8 x (d - 14 mm) in equation (1) for the
calculation.
S = 2,000 mm/s x (Tm + Ts) + 8 x (d - 14 mm)
• S = Safety distance (mm)
• Tm = Machine's response time (s)
• Ts = Response time of the F3SJ from ON to OFF (s)
• d = Size of F3SJ's detection capability (mm)
Hazard
WARNING
Make sure to secure the safety distance (S) between the F3SJ
and the hazardous part. Failure to do so may prevent the
machinery from stopping before a person reaches the
hazardous part of the machinery, and result in serious injury.
Note: The response time of a machine is the time period from when
the machine receives a stop signal to when the machine's
hazardous part stops. Measure the response time on the actual
system. Also, periodically check that the response time of the
machine has not changed.
[Calculation example]
When Tm = 0.05 s, Ts = 0.01 s, and d = 14 mm:
S = 2,000 mm/s x (0.05 s + 0.01 s) + 8 x (14 mm - 14 mm)
= 120 mm . . . Formula (2)
If the result is less than 100 mm, use S = 100 mm.
If the result exceeds 500 mm, use the following formula where
K = 1,600 mm/s.
S = 1,600 mm/s x (Tm + Ts) + 8 x (d - 14 mm) . . . Formula (3)
If the result of this Formula (3) is less than 500 mm,
S = 500 mm
Use K = 1,600 mm/s and C = 8 x (d - 850 mm) in equation (1) for
the calculation.
S = 1,600 mm/s x (Tm + Ts) + 850 x (d - 14 mm) ... Formula (4)
• S = Safety distance (mm)
• Tm = Machine's response time (s)
• Ts = Response time of the F3SJ from ON to OFF (s)
[Calculation example]
When Tm = 0.05 s, Ts = 0.01 s:
S = 1,600 mm/s x (0.05 s + 0.01 s) + 850 mm
= 946 mm

F3SJ-E/F3SJ-B/F3SJ-A
Possible Circumventing by Reaching Over the Detection Zone
If access to the hazardous zone by reaching over the detection
zone of vertically mounted F3SJ cannot be excluded, the height
and the safety distance, S, of the F3SJ shall be determined. S shall
be determined by comparison of the calculated values in Detection
Zone Orthogonal to Direction of Approach. The greater value
resulting from this comparison shall be applied.
Hazard
S=(K × T) + Cro . . . Formula (5)
• S: Safety distance
• K: Approach speed to the detection zone
• T: Total response time of the machine and F3SJ
• Cro: Approach distance based on the distance which personnel
can move towards the hazardous zone of a machine by reaching
over the detection zone. The distance is determined in the table
below based on the height of the hazardous zone, a, and the
height of the upper edge of the detection zone, b.

First, use K = 2,000 mm/s in formula (5) for the calculation. If the
result of this calculation is less than 100 mm, use S = 100 mm.
If the result exceeds 500 mm, use K = 1,600 mm/s to recalculate it.
If the result of the recalculation is less than 500 mm, use S = 500

Note: 1. Upper edge of the detection zone below 900 mm is not included since they do not offer sufficient protection against circumventing or
stepping over.
2. When determining the values of this table, it shall not be interpolated. If the known values a, b or Cro are between two values of this table,
the greater safety distance shall be used.
[Calculation example]
• T: Tm + Ts (s)
• Tm: Machine's response time (s)
• Ts: Response time of the F3SJ from ON to OFF (s)
• a: Height of machine hazardous zone (mm)
• b: Height of upper edge of detection zone (mm)
When Tm = 0.05 s, Ts = 0.01 s, a = 1,400 mm, b = 1,500 m:
From the table above, Cro = 850 mm. Since b is between 1,400
mm and 1,600 mm, b = 1,400 mm which has the greater Cro value,
shall be used.
S = 2,000 mm/s × (0.05 s + 0.01 s) + 850 mm
= 970 mm
Since 970 mm is greater than 500 mm, use K = 1,600 mm/s and
recalculate it.
S = 1,600 m/s × (0.05 s + 0.01 s) + 850 mm
= 946 mm
47
Compare S = 946 mm with the calculation in Detection Zone
Orthogonal to Direction of Approach, and choose the larger value
as the safety distance.
For the system with a detection capability of 40 mm max., the
safety distance S is 946 mm since this is larger than S = 120 mm
calculated in the calculation example of Detection Zone
Orthogonal to Direction of Approach.
For the system with a detection capability larger than 40 mm, the
safety distance S is 946 mm since this is the same value as S =
946 mm calculated in the calculation example of Detection Zone
Orthogonal to Direction of Approach.
F3SJ-E/F3SJ-B/F3SJ-A
Detection Zone Parallel to Direction of Approach
Use K = 1,600 mm/s and C = (1200 - 0.4 x H) in formula (1) for
calculation. Note that C must not be less than 850 mm.
S = 1,600 mm/s x (Tm + Ts) + 1200 - 0.4 x H
• S = Safety distance (mm)
• Tm = Machine's response time (s)
• Ts = Response time of F3SJ from ON to OFF (s)
• H = Installation height (mm)
Note that H must satisfy:
1000 ≥ H ≥ 15 (d - 50 mm) ≥ 0 mm
Hazard
Safety distance (S)
H
Also, you must include a hazardous condition under which a
person may go through under a detection zone if H exceeds 300
mm (200 mm for other purpose than industrial use) into risk
assessment.
[Calculation example]
When Tm = 0.05 s, Ts = 0.01 s, and d = 14 mm:
S = 1,600 mm/s x (0.05 s + 0.01 s) + 1200 - 0.4 x 500 mm
= 1096 mm
When a warning zone is configured as in the figure, you must
calculate L, a distance from an end of casing to a detection zone,
using a formula below:
How to calculate the safety distance specified by
American standard ANSI B11.19
(Ref.)
If a person approaches the detection zone of the F3SJ
orthogonally, calculate the safety distance as shown below.
S = K x (Ts + Tc + Tr + Tbm) + Dpf
• S: Safety distance
• K: Approach speed to the detection zone
(the value recommended by OSHA standard is 1,600 mm/s)
Approach speed K is not specified in the ANSI B.11.19 standard.
To determine the value of K to apply, consider all factors, including
the operator's physical ability.
• Ts = Machine's stop time (s)
• Ts = Response time of the F3SJ from ON to OFF (s)
• Tc = Machine control circuit's maximum response time required
to activate its brake (s)
• Tbm = Additional time (s)
If a machine has a brake monitor, "Tbm = Brake monitor setting
time - (Ts + Tc)". If it has no brake monitor, we recommend using
20% or more of (Ts + Tc) as additional time.
• Dpf = Additional distance
According to ANSI's formula, Dpf is calculated as shown below:
Dpf = 3.4 x (d - 7.0): Where d is the detection capability of the F3SJ
(unit: mm)
[Calculation example]
When K = 1,600 mm/s, Ts + Tc = 0.06 s, brake monitor setting time
= 0.1 s, Tr = 0.01 s, and d = 14 mm:
Tbm = 0.1 - 0.06 = 0.04 s
Dpf = 3.4 x (14 - 7.0) = 23.8 mm
S = 1,600 mm/s x (0.06 s + 0.01 s + 0.04 s) + 23.8 mm = 199.8 mm
L = (Total number of F3SJ beams - number of warning zone beams
- 1) x P + 10
• P: Beam Gap (mm)
• F3SJ-AP14/N14 . . . 9 mm
• F3SJ-AP20/N20 . . . 15 mm
• F3SJ-AP25/N25 . . . 20 mm
