SICK C40S Series Light Curtain, 1800mm Protective Height, 30mm Resolution - C40S-1803CA010

This light curtain is a sender component designed for safeguarding industrial machinery by monitoring access points with an optical beam array. It operates in standard industrial environments, providing a protective field suitable for machine guarding and automation tasks. The unit uses optical synchronisation and is intended for integration with compatible safety relays and control devices in production and logistics settings.

Features and Benefits:

• 21m scanning distance enabling extended safeguarding zones
• 24V supply supporting common industrial power systems
• Type 4 safety classification delivering high-level risk reduction
• 30mm beam resolution detecting small intrusions effectively
• Aluminium housing offering Durable protection in industrial conditions

Applications

• Suitable for safeguarding production line access points
• Used with safety relays for controlled machine shutdowns
• Ideal for perimeter protection on automated equipment
• Can be used for palletiser safeguarding in logistics
• Used for operator presence monitoring during maintenance

What is the required supply voltage range for operation?

It requires 24V DC and accepts a supply range of 19.2V to 28.8V.

How is synchronisation achieved between sender and receiver?

Synchronisation is performed optically to coordinate beam transmission and reception.

Which environmental conditions can it withstand?

The enclosure rating is IP65 and the operating temperature ranges from 0°C to +55°C.

How should it be integrated to meet high safety categories?

Outputs must be connected in a dual‑channel manner to attain Category 4 and PL e compliance.
