Datasensing FARW/BN-1E Sensors

The Datasensing FARW/BN-1E Sensors offer a comprehensive range of M18 sensors designed for optimal performance with a 10...30 Vdc power supply. These sensors feature both axial and radial optics with a flat surface, making them ideal for various applications. The retro-reflective models are specifically designed for detecting transparent objects, utilizing a red emission and boasting an IP67 protection degree for enhanced durability. Available in both metallic and plastic housings, these sensors provide flexibility in installation and application. Each model includes sensitivity adjustment via a trimmer, ensuring precise detection with a nominal sensing distance of 350mm and a minimum sensing distance (blind zone) of 35mm. The sensors operate on the principle of background suppression, with a repeat accuracy of 5% and a thermal drift of Sr at ?10% Sr. The optic position is axial, and the output type is NPN NO+NC, offering both normally open and normally closed functions. With a switching frequency of 1kHz and a response time of 500µs, these sensors are designed for rapid and reliable performance. They operate within a voltage range of 10…30VDC, with a no-load supply current of ? 25mA and a load current of ?100mA. The output voltage drop is minimal at ?2V@Iload=100mA, and the sensors feature short-circuit protection with autoreset, overvoltage, and reverse polarity protection. The sensors are equipped with LED indicators for easy status monitoring, and they 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 built to withstand harsh conditions, with an operating temperature range of -25°C to +70°C. They 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.
