Datasensing FAI8/BN-0A Sensors

The Datasensing FAI8/BN-0A Sensors offer a comprehensive solution for various sensing applications with their robust M18 design and versatile features. These sensors operate on a 10...30 Vdc power supply and are available in both axial and radial optic configurations with a flat surface. They are particularly effective in detecting transparent objects, thanks to their retro-reflective models with red emission. With an IP67 protection degree, these sensors are built to withstand harsh environments, featuring either metallic or plastic housing options. The FAI8/BN-0A Sensors boast a nominal sensing distance of 1 meter and maintain a thermal drift of Sr at ?10% Sr, ensuring reliable performance. They offer a repeat accuracy of 5% and come equipped with a trimmer for sensitivity adjustment. Utilizing a diffuse reflection principle for long-distance detection (>600mm), these sensors are optimized for white target Kodak 90% 400 x 400mm. The optic position is axial, and the output type is NPN NO+NC, providing both normally open and normally closed functions. With a switching frequency of 250Hz and a response time of just 2ms, these sensors are designed for fast and accurate detection. They operate efficiently within a voltage range of 10…30VDC, with a no-load supply current of ? 30mA and a load current of ?100mA. The sensors feature a low output voltage drop of ?2V@Iload=100mA and a maximum ripple content of ?10%. LED indicators provide clear status updates, with yellow indicating Lon or output status Lo/Do. The FAI8/BN-0A Sensors are equipped with comprehensive protection features, including short-circuit protection with autoreset, overvoltage, reverse polarity protection, and resistance to impulsive voltage. They emit LED infrared light at 880nm and are resistant to external light interference up to 3000lux from incandescent lamps and 10000lux from sunlight. Measuring M18 x 1/L=67.5mm and weighing 50g, these sensors are constructed with a PBT/PC cable exit housing and a PC active head material. They are designed to withstand operating temperatures from -25°C to +70°C without freezing and offer mechanical protection with an IP67 rating. The sensors come with supplied accessories, including M18 x 1 nuts and a screwdriver, ensuring easy installation and maintenance. Approved by CE and cULus, and compliant with EMC compatibility standards EN 60947-5-2, these sensors are built to endure shocks and vibrations as per IEC 60068-2-6 and IEC 60068-2-27 standards.
