The SICK DFS60B-S4AB02500 is a Type 3 safety distance sensor designed for horizontal or vertical integration into machinery to monitor protective fields. Utilizing infrared light beams, it detects intrusions into hazardous areas (e.g., robotic cells, presses) and triggers safety outputs (OSSDs) to stop machinery immediately. With a rectangular aluminum housing, IP67 protection, and flexible configuration options (e.g., muting, blanking), it meets stringent safety standards (ISO 13849-1 PL d) and is ideal for space-constrained applications in automation, packaging, and material handling.
