The FG-1300 fiber sensor amplifier is a high-performance amplifier for non-contact rotation detectors that emits red visible light from its built-in LED and detects the reflected light that hits a rotating object and returns.

It is used in combination with the dedicated detector FS-5500* / FS-540 Opto-Fiber Sensor. The FS-5500* / FS-540 Opto-Fiber Sensor employs an environmentally resistant design in which glass fiber is encased in a stainless steel flexible tube.

It is extremely effective as a detector for measuring the rotation of thin shafts of micromotors and in confined spaces.

* A slim sensor has been added to the FS sensor, enabling measurement of workpieces that were difficult to measure with conventional models.

Features

FG-1300 Fiber Sensor Amplifier

  • Capable of measuring up to a maximum response frequency of 10 kHz, 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 69 mm (when using reflective marks).

  • It is possible to divide unevenly spaced pulses into a single pulse, which may be detected when measuring without reflective marks.

FS-5500 Optofiber Sensor

Suitable for small workpieces

Capable of detecting rotation in small spots such as 2 mm pitch zebra tape, turbine blades, and small motors.

High resolution

It can be used as a sensor for crank angle detection, tracking analysis, and balancing measurement, where high resolution is required.
Ideal as a detection unit for FFT tachometers, DS, CF, etc.

Vehicle measurement, equipment integration measurement

Its slim design and ability to operate in temperatures ranging from -40 to 250°C make it versatile and easy to handle, allowing for rotational speed measurement of engines, axles, gears, and drive shafts in vehicles, and rotation and angle detection in confined spaces and under low and high temperatures in equipment such as parts production lines.

Case Studies

It can be used for a wide range of applications, from rotational measurement to analysis of various rotating bodies.

Application/Example

Detection of the presence or absence of minute components

With a Φ2 mm output aperture, it projects precisely onto even the smallest parts. By detecting the amount of reflected light from the smallest parts and determining the level of reflected light using a threshold function, it is possible to easily detect the presence or absence of smallest parts moving along the line.

  • Detection of the presence or absence of minute components

Tablet missing tablet test

By projecting light onto tablets on a production line, it's possible to check for missing tablets based on the difference in reflected light intensity.
