The SICK DGS60-C4B03600 is a Type 4 safety light curtain designed for machine guarding and personnel protection in industrial automation. It creates an infrared beam barrier to detect intrusions into hazardous areas (e.g., presses, robots, automated machinery). When the beam is interrupted, it triggers an immediate safety stop via OSSD outputs, ensuring compliance with safety standards (ISO 13849-1 PL e, IEC 61496-1/2). With a compact aluminum housing, high noise immunity, and flexible configuration, it is ideal for harsh manufacturing environments.
