Datasensing FARS/BN-1E Sensors

The Datasensing FARS/BN-1E Sensors offer a comprehensive range of M18 sensors designed for versatile applications. These sensors operate on a 10...30 Vdc power supply and feature both axial and radial optics with a flat surface. They are equipped with retro-reflective models specifically for detecting transparent objects, utilizing a red emission and boasting an IP67 protection degree for robust performance in various environments. Available in both metallic and plastic housings, these sensors include sensitivity adjustment for precise detection, ensuring total protection against any type of electric damages. Key specifications include a nominal sensing distance of 130mm, with a thermal drift of Sr at ?10% Sr and a repeat accuracy of 5%. The sensors feature a trimmer for sensitivity adjustment and a minimum sensing distance (blind zone) of 30mm. They operate on the principle of background suppression, with an optic position that is axial. The output type is NPN NO+NC, with a switching frequency of 1Khz and a response time of 500µs. The sensors are designed to handle a no-load supply current of ? 25mA and a load current of ?100mA, with a leakage current of ?10?A and an output voltage drop of ?2V@Iload=100mA. They are equipped with LED indicators for easy status monitoring and feature short-circuit protection, overvoltage, and reverse polarity protection. The sensors are resistant to external light interference up to 5000lux from incandescent lamps and 10000lux from sunlight. Constructed with a nickel-plated brass housing and a PMMA active head, these sensors are durable and reliable, with a tightening torque of 25Nm. They operate efficiently within a temperature range of -25°C to +70°C, without freezing. The sensors are CE and cULus approved, ensuring compliance with international standards, and come with supplied accessories including M18 x 1 nuts and a screwdriver for easy installation.
