PHOTOSWITCHr Bulletin 45FVL Digital Self Teaching Fiber Optic
Product Description
The 45FVL is a DIN rail mountable fiber optic photoelectric
sensor with sophisticated detection, diagnostic and self-teach
capabilities. Possible modes of sensing include transmitted
beam, diffuse and retroreflective, allowing the 45FVL to be
used in a variety of complex applications.
Summary of 45FVL Features
S
Self-teach capability—Allows the 45FVL photoelectric
sensor to determine an optimum sensitivity and hysteresis
setting for a specific application.
S
Manual or automatic sensitivity adjustment.
S
Back-Lit LCD Display. Clearly displays various operating
modes, functions and diagnostic information.
S
Visible red, green, white, or blue light source.
S
Selectable 40ms off delay output timer. "Pulse stretcher"
useful in high speed applications when the output pulse
must be lengthened to allow time for the machine logic to
respond.
S
DIN rail mountable. For installation convenience, a steel
bracket is supplied for specific mounting requirements.
S
"Power Bus" option. Interface which allows user to
jumper power on several DIN rail mounted units to reduce
unnecessary wiring.
S
Dual channel interference protection. Prevents crosstalk
between 2 sensors.
S
Short circuit protection.
S
Reverse polarity protection.
S
False pulse protection.
S
Transient noise protection.
The 45FVL photoelectric sensors are designed for use with
plastic fiber optic cables up to 2.2mm diameter. An adaptor is
supplied with the sensor for use with 1.25mm diameter plastic
fiber optic cables. No tools are required to attach or remove
fiber optic cables. Special glass fiber optic cables are also
available.
