Autonics BF4 Series Manual

BF4 Series
High Reliability Of Fiber Optic Amplifier For Convenient Mounting

Features

● High speed response: max. 0.5ms
● Auto sensitivity setting (button setting)/external input sensitivity setting type
● External synchronization input, mutual interference protection, self-diagnosis
● Reverse power polarity and short-circuit (overcurrent) protection circuit
● Timer function: selectable none / 40ms OFF delay timer (fixed)
(standard type, remote sensitivity setting type only)
● Automatically selectable Light ON / Dark ON
● Precise detection of small target and easy to install in the complicated place
Please read "Safety Considerations" in operation
manual before using.
