Keyence 36-beam Category 4 safety light curtain with IP65/IP67 rating for hand-level machine guarding. Sender/receiver pair covers 720 mm across 0.2 to 15 meter working distance, operates on 24 VDC, and resists dust and washdown spray. Includes mounting brackets for aluminum extrusion. Requires compatible Keyence safety module.
Keyence light curtain 36 beams is a Category 4 safety light curtain designed for hand level industrial machine guarding, providing high-integrity protection in environments that require robust safety measures and water or dust resistance.
With its 36 beams, the Keyence light curtain efficiently detects hand entry across a 720 mm span, making it optimal for applications requiring hand-level safety over machine openings. Adjustable sensing distances from 0.2 to 15 meters address both confined and wide access points. Compared to light curtains with 24 beams, the increased beam count enhances coverage for larger guarded openings.
As a Category 4 safety light curtain, this device fulfills the highest requirements for machine safety, featuring continuous circuit self-testing to maximize operator protection. Integration is simplified using 24 VDC supply and standard connectors, which interface directly with Keyence safety modules. Compatibility with Category 4 standards differentiates it from lower-category light curtains in less critical scenarios.
Offering IP65/IP67 ingress protection, the light curtain functions reliably in dusty factories and wet conditions. It mounts securely to aluminum extrusion frames as well as to Vention structures, meeting requirements for flexible line layouts and modular safety zones in diverse automation environments.
The Keyence 36-beam light curtain combines Category 4 safety certification with sealed, dust and water-resistant construction. Choose it when hand-level guarding must survive wet or dusty environments while maintaining the highest safety integrity.
