DESCRIPTION

Autonics Button Adjustment Fiber Optic Amplifier – BF4R

Red LED, NPN, Cable type connection, Manual

 

The Autonics fiber optic sensor BF4R is used as digital display fiber optic amplifier with NPN output. This sensor is available in standard type and manual insensitivity setting (adjuster).

As a quick report, this fiber optic sensor provides:

  • Standard type
  • Red LED (660nm) Light source
  • 4-wire and 2m Cable length
  • Self-diagnosis output
  • Response time: Frequency 1: Max. 0.5ms / Frequency 2: Max. 0.7ms
  • 12-24 VDC ±10% (ripple P-P: max. 10%) Power supply
  • Light ON/Dark ON (set by ON/OFF button) Operation mode
  • NPN open collector
  • Manual Sensitivity adjustment
  • Reverse power protection circuit, output short overcurrent protection circuit

Body

This Autonics fiber optic sensor’s case is made of Heat-resistance acrylonitrile butadiene styrene and its cover made of Polycarbonate.

Connection

The Autonics fiber optic sensor BF4R features cable type. This cable covers the sensor’s 4 wires. It is 4 mm in diameter and 2 meters in length.

Temperature

There are limitations in temperature and humidity in which BF4R fiber optic sensor is used:

  • Storage temperature: -20 … 70°C
  • Storage humidity: 35 to 85%RH
  • Ambient temperature: -10 … 50°C
  • Ambient humidity: 35 to 85%RH

Environment resistance is rated at no freezing or condensation.
