1087589

Overview

The SICK 1087589 is a safety light curtain system designed for personnel protection in industrial environments. It features a resolution of 30 mm and a protective height of 420 mm, ensuring precise detection of human intrusion into hazardous zones. The device operates with a response time of 60 ms, facilitating rapid machine shutdown upon fault detection. It utilizes a two-beam configuration to minimize false stops while maintaining high sensitivity. The unit supports standard safety interfaces including PNP outputs compliant with Category 4 and PL e standards, suitable for integration into complex safety circuits requiring reliable performance.

Feature Summary

• Provides personnel protection through high-resolution optical detection
• Ensures rapid machine stopping via low response latency
• Complies with stringent safety categories for critical applications

Applications

• Protection of press brakes and stamping machines
• Safety guarding for robotic work cells
• Hazard zone monitoring in automated assembly lines

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific accessory kit compatibility, as the main emitter/receiver units often require separate mounting brackets or cable sets for installation. Confirm that the control system inputs match the output logic levels provided by the sensor. Ensure the environmental conditions at the installation site do not exceed the specified operating temperature range or ingress protection ratings defined in the official technical documentation.

Selection Notes

Select this model based on the required protective height and resolution needed for the specific hazard analysis. Compare the 30 mm resolution against regulatory requirements for body part detection distances. Evaluate the available mounting space against the physical dimensions of the emitter and receiver units. Consider the cable length requirements between the sensor and the control unit to ensure signal integrity without additional repeaters.
