SICK C20S-060102A11 Safety Light Curtain Sender

SICK C20S-060102A11 Safety Light Curtain Sender is the sending half of a two-piece safety light curtain designed to guard operator access on automated equipment. As part of the SICK C2000 family, it provides a 600 mm protective height and 20 mm beam resolution and is designated Type 2 for safety applications. The unit uses an M12 8-pin connector for wiring to safety controllers and is cataloged as 1016574. When paired with the receiver C20E-060302A11 (1016575), it forms a complete safeguarding pair that detects beam interruptions and signals the control system to stop the protected machinery. Typical applications include guarding access points on conveyors, presses, and robotic work cells where a compact, straightforward protective barrier is essential. The sender's design emphasizes a compact form factor for easier mounting in space-constrained installations, and this part number is widely cataloged alongside the corresponding receiver for quick pairing in new builds or retrofits. This configuration is commonly selected in industrial environments where discrete, reliable safety signaling is required to manage machine guards.
