  • High Speed Fiber Optic Amplifier

    DF-G2 Series

    Designed to achieve the world's fastest response rate, the DF-G2 fiber optic amplifier can achieve 10 microsecond response time with 5 microsecond repeatability.

    • Models with IO-Link enable a point-to-point communication link between a master device and a sensor, facilitating remote monitoring, teaching, and configuration
    • Best in class response speeds of 10 μs, 15 μs, 50 μs, 250 μs, 500 μs, and 1000 μs
    • Easy-to-read dual digital displays show signal level and threshold values
    • Simple user interface ensures easy sensor set-up and programming via displays and switches/buttons or remote input teach wire
    • Expert TEACH and SET methods ensure optimal gain and threshold for all applications, especially for high speed or low contrast applications
    • Thermally stable electronics shortens start-up time and maintains signal stability during operation
    • Economy display mode reduces amplifier power consumption by 25%
    • Cross talk avoidance algorithm allows two sensors to operate in close proximity
