A new standard in every sense
The deTec4 Core and deTec2 Core safety light curtains makes it easier than ever before to cost-effectively protect hazardous zones and access points. The deTec family is efficient to integrate, quick to install and safe in routine operation – deTec4 Core or deTec2 Core is also the best-in-class safety light curtain in each case.

Based on more than 60 years of experience.
The development and production of safety light curtains has been one of SICK‘s core areas of competency for more than six decades. Our safety light curtains are proven in the field through their widespread use worldwide in a multitude of applications. Economic factors are also an important consideration, in addition to safety matters. Optimally designed safety technology with user-oriented functionality is key to increasing system efficiency. Of course, it goes without saying that SICK utilizes open systems.
 
The deTec4 Core safety light curtain is impressive with a new innovative system of brackets, no blind zones, and the increased height of its protective field. The effort required for commissioning and maintenance is minimized. The half-rounded contour of the rear of the housing enables the brackets to be positioned in any location on the housing. The FlexFix bracket facilitates alignment at up to +/–15°. Integrated LED displays, diagnostic functions, and automatic distance measurements help to save time and costs during commissioning. The deTec2 Core is also suitable for use in harsh ambient conditions thanks to the enclosure rating IP65 and IP67. The deTec2 Core provides reliable hand and finger protection at PL c protection level. With ambient operating temperatures of between -30 °C and +55 °C, the safety light curtain can also be used in low-temperature environments. The available protective field heights range from 300 mm to 2,100 mm.
