R55F Fiber Optic Series
Overview
- Delivers outstanding color contrast sensitivity
- Reliably detects 16 levels of grayscale at up to 10,000 actuations per second
- Available in two fiber types: economical plastic for repeated flexing and glass for harsh conditions
- Offers choice of models with an infrared (glass only) or visible green, blue, red or white LED
- Provides 10 to 30V dc supply voltage with bipolar NPN or PNP outputs
- Features push-button programming for easy-to-set static, dynamic and remote TEACH
- Uses push-button for manual sensitivity adjustment
- Easily mounts in confined areas, either flat or to 35 mm DIN rail

| Environmental Rating | IP67; NEMA 6 |
| Construction | Black ABS/polycarbonate blend; nylon fiber clip mounts to standard 35 mm DIN rail One stainless-steel right-angle bracket and one PBT polyester bracket for mounting to flat surfaces also included with sensor |
| Connections | 2 m or 9 m 5-wire attached PVC cable, or 5-pin Euro-style quick-disconnect fitting. QD cable are ordered separately.
Fibers:Fiber clip (no tools required) |
| Operating Conditions | Temperature:-10 to +55° C Relative humidity:90% @ 50° C (non-condensing) |
| Application Notes | • Do not mount the fiber tip directly perpendicular to shiny surfaces; position it at approximately a 15° angle in relation to the sensing target. • Minimize web or product flutter whenever possible to maximize sensing reliability. |
