FX-301-F7

FX-300 Fiber Optic Sensors High Performance Digital Fiber Sensor The FX-300 series of digital fiber optic sensors offers a wide range of sensing possibilities in a compact, high-performance unit. Three types are available for optimal application coverage including the standard type (FX-301), high-function type (FX305), and the high-speed type (FX-301-HS). The core of the FX-300 series revolves around five main concepts for superior sensor performance: ● High Stability SUNX has developed a system that drastically increases the long and short term stability of their FX-300 series fiber optic sensors. ❍ Four-Chemical Element LED: Primary to that system is the adoption of a four-chemical element LED light source that demonstrates unmatched stability in light output over time. ❍ Auto Power Control (APC): To enhance the stability further, SUNX also has integrated an 'Auto Power Control (APC)' circuit which combats short-term fluctuation in light emission due to ambient conditions. ❍ Double Coupling Lens: These two features are then used to their full advantage by adding a double coupling lens to focus the emitted light, impressively increasing the overall efficiency and detection distance of the sensor. ● Superior Performance The FX-300 series has incorporated several functions that improve on the performance of pervious models. ❍ Light Output Level Selection: The new light output emission function allows for the user to adjust the light output intensity without effecting the response time of the sensor. This is great for applications that are inhibited by close range sensing that result in an over-saturation of the sensor. ❍ Large Four Digit Display: The large 4-digit display also increases the saturation point to 9999 to provide better sensing at close range. ❍ High Speed: Ultra fast response times are also available with the high-speed type, FX-301-HS. Demonstrating a 35microsecond response time, this can handle the most demanding speed requirements. ❍ New Operating Modes: By using the window comparator mode and the differential sensing mode, users can now perform sensing operations that once needed two sensors and complex threshold settings. ❍ Five Timer Types: In addition to the ON-Delay, OFF-Delay, and ONE-SHOT timers that are found in many conventional fiber sensors, the SUNX FX-300 series incorporates combination timers: ON+OFF Delay and ONDelay+ONE-SHOT ❍ Multi-Purpose Dual Output:Two independent discrete outputs are available (FX-305) so that one sensor can be used to control tasks that previously required two sensors. In addition, the secondary output can be used for simple self-diagnosis or an alarm output so that ease on maintenance is improved. ● Easy Operation The FX-300 series was designed around ease of use. The incorporation of a user-friendly jog-dial simplifies operation and maintenance. Beginners and advanced users alike will benefit from the intuitive programming and operation, thus, keeping the learning curve to a minimum. ❍ Mode NAVI: Six easy-to-see indicators surround the main display allowing quick and easy confirmation of the operating mode. Also, the threshold value can be conveniently checked at the touch of a button. ❍ Key Lock Function: The key lock function is a very useful feature in avoiding accidental changes to the sensor settings. The jog switch as well as the mode button is disabled to prevent any unwanted modifications. ● Easy Maintenance SUNX has developed several new features/accessories that simplify sensor maintenance so you spend less time configuring the sensor and more time using it. ❍ New Communication Unit: The new SC-GU1-485 communication unit allows for complete remote access to sensor settings. Functions such as teaching and data bank switching can now be performed via a PLC. All sensor attributes, including incident light readings and threshold values, can also be conveniently checked without requiring access to the sensor amplifier. This is great for applications where the sensor may not be easily accessible for maintenance operations. The RS-485 based communication unit allows for 16 sensors per node, and up to 31 nodes. It is now possible to remotely control up to 496 sensors! ❍ External Input Unit: The FX-CH2 external input unit is useful when full access to all sensor functions is not necessary. This unit allows for external teaching and data bank switching for up to 16 sensors at one time. ❍ Easy Wiring: The easy quick-connect wiring of the FX-300 series allows for any unit to be set up as a main or a sub unit, simply by changing the wire. The removable wiring also salvages the sensor in the event that the wiring is accidentally severed. This allows the user to just replace the wire, not the entire sensor. ❍ Optical Communication Function: The optical communication function makes it easy to copy settings to up to 16 sensors connected together. This saves the time of setting up each sensor individually. ❍ Quick Set-Up Code: Restoring settings has never been easier than with the quick set-up code that is built into the FX-300 series. Once initial set-up is completed, write down the four digit code and in the event that sensor settings are reset, the user can quickly restore the sensor back to operation. ● Eco-Friendly ❍ Pb Free: SUNX promotes the use of lead-free materials in all of its sensor manufacturing processes including those used for the FX-300 series of digital fiber sensors. ❍ Reduced Power Consumption (ECO Mode): The FX-300 series also had an available Eco-mode that reduces the power consumption from 960mW to 600mW by turning off the display during operation. SUNX offers a complete line of over 180 different fiber heads to suit any of your detection needs, including diffuse-reflective (FD Series), retro-reflective (FR Series), and thru-beam (FT Series) types.
