The industry’s leading fiber amplifier in sensing performance
|
|
Thanks to its new “application-specific integrated circuit” (ASIC), Panasonic can solve applications with fiber optic sensors that were previously impossible. Not only can the FX-500 reach a response time of 25µs while providing extremely accurate detection, integrated logic functions save you money because external controllers are no longer needed for normal applications and threshold tracking and self-diagnostic functions save time for maintenance. Moreover, the reliability of the detection has increased by 75% compared to that of previous models. The customer can choose between digital output types with one or two outputs, or an analog output type. Characteristics: - One 4-digit green, one 4-digit red LCD display
- Copy settings via optical interface
- Decreased variations among amplifiers
- Input for external settings, i.e. threshold value (not available for FX-501)
- Up to 8 settings can be saved and loaded (data bank)
- Logical calculation functions
- Light intensity and gain setting for transparent object detection
- Threshold tracking
- Self-diagnosis output
- Display easy readable at angles of up to 60°
- Superior quality fibers (listed in the FX-500 brochure)
Accessories: - Quick connection cables in lengths of 1, 2 or 5m
- End plates
- Protection cover
