Capable of measuring up to a maximum response frequency of 10kHz, even for detecting high-speed rotating objects.
Using red visible light, detection is easy even when measuring objects where optical axis positioning is difficult, such as thin shafts.
It can detect even minute changes in light intensity and allows measurement without reflection marks.
Signal gain/trigger level settings can be adjusted manually using a volume control or automatically using an auto-trigger, allowing you to select the adjustment method that best suits your measurement application.
Two measurement distance settings are available: Normal and Close Range. Detection is possible from close range up to a maximum of 70 mm (when using reflective marks).
It can detect unevenly spaced pulses when measuring without reflective marks, and can divide them into a single pulse.
The FG-1300 fiber sensor amplifier is a high-performance amplifier for non-contact rotational detectors that emits red visible light from its built-in LED and detects the reflected light that returns after hitting a rotating object. It is used in combination with the dedicated detector FS-540 opto-fiber sensor (sold separately).
The FS-540 fiber sensor employs an environmentally resistant design, featuring a Φ4 mm tip outlet diameter and a standard length of 1 m of glass fiber encased in a stainless steel flexible tube.
This is effective for measuring the rotation of thin shafts of micromotors, and for measuring rotation through narrow, elongated spaces.
