Autonics FD-620-10 Fiber Optic Sensor
Autonics FD-620-10 Diffuse Reflective Fiber Optic Sensor Unit
Autonics FD-620-10 is a diffuse reflective fiber optic sensing unit with 10 m of FREE-CUT plastic fiber, designed for long routing and reliable small-object detection in compact and harsh industrial environments when used with Autonics fiber amplifiers.
The Autonics FD-620-10 is a diffuse reflective fiber optic sensor unit from the FD/GD Series, optimized for applications requiring long fiber routing up to 10 meters. Its FREE-CUT plastic fiber allows installers to cut the cable to the exact required length on-site, making it ideal for large machines and distributed automation layouts.
This sensor unit must be paired with an Autonics fiber optic amplifier (BF3RX, BF4R, BF5R series, etc.) to provide accurate and stable object detection in electrically noisy or space-constrained environments.
