20 mm Beam Pitch General Purpose Area Sensor

Wide sensing area of 7 m x 1260 mm with 20 mm beam pitch. Compared to the conventional model, much smaller objects can be detected so the distance between parts shelf and sensor can be shortened (Enables miniaturization of equipment).

Self-diagnosis function: Both the emitter and the receiver automatically check the internal circuit every 5 ms. Should trouble occur in the sensor, the output is forced to the OFF state and the built-in indicator shows the type of error. Also, the emission can be forcibly stopped by an external input to check if the output follows it. It is convenient for an operation check before start-up.

The SF1-N series has been the first to realize modular construction for 20 mm beam pitch area sensors. It allows easy change in the beam channel number. There are eight types of sensors having a sensing height ranging from 140 mm (8 beam channels) to 1,260 mm (64 beam channels). A spatter protection hood type sensor is also available that protects the sensing face against welding spatters.
