It provides Category 4 safety performance by reliably identifying when the optical sensing path is interrupted.     Technical Specifications  Condition New/Never Used Surplus Brand Banner Category Safety Devices Part Number SFCDT-4A1C Subcategory Fiber Optic Safety Controllers Series Pico-Guard Series Function Fiber optic safety controller Sensor Channels 4 channels for fiber optic sensor inputs Safety Outputs 1 redundant relay output Safety Rating Category 4, SIL3, PL e Input Voltage 24 V DC Response Time Typically < 20 ms Indicators LED indicators for status, fault, and alignment Connection Type Terminal block connections Housing Material Industrial-grade enclosure Mounting Type DIN-rail Operating Temperature 0°C to +55°C Protection Rating IP20 Certifications CE, UL, TUV, CSA Applications Robotic cells, conveyors, enclosures, hazardous machine guarding Weight Approx. 300 g     Information About SFCDT-4A1C The SFCDT-4A1C is part of Banner’s Pico-Guard Series, a unique fiber optic safety solution designed for applications where traditional light curtains or guards are impractical. Instead of projecting infrared beams, the controller monitors fiber optic cables that carry light signals along machinery or enclosure boundaries. With four sensor channels and one safety output, the module supports flexible system design in distributed layouts. The SFCDT-4A1C is commonly applied in guarding robotic work cells, process equipment, and conveyors where space or environmental conditions require fiber-based safeguarding. Key Features: Fiber Optic Safety Control: Monitors optical fibers for interruptions as safety triggers. Category 4 Protection: Meets ISO 13849-1 standards for highest-level safety applications. Multiple Sensor Channels: Supports up to four independent fiber optic sensor connections. Compact Design: Saves space in control cabinets with DIN-rail mounting. Safety Outputs: Provides redundant relay output for reliable machine stop control. Versatile Applications: Protects machinery where light curtains or guards cannot be used. Status Indicators: LED diagnostics provide feedback on system health and alignment. Rugged Reliability: Built for industrial environments requiring continuous safety monitoring. The SFCDT-4A1C delivers the reliability and precision required for advanced safeguarding using Banner’s Pico-Guard fiber optic safety technology.
