FX-305 Panasonic fiber amplifier NEW

Product Description:

Stable sensing over long and short periods [FX-301 FX-301-HS FX-305]

In addition to a "four-chemical emitting element" which suppresses changes in the light emitting element over time so that a stable level of light emission can be maintained over long periods, a "APC (Auto Power Control) circuit" has also been adopted afreshly. The light emitting amount can be controlled in minute degrees so that even changes occurring over very short periods can be handled, allowing stable sensing performance by suppressing deviations in light emitting amounts caused by changes in the ambient environment that could not previously be suppressed.

Even greater sensing range [All models]

Adoption of a "double coupling lens" that increases emission efficiency to its maximum limits and greatly increases sensing range. Sensing ranges with small diameter fibers and ultra-small diameter fibers, which have become very popular due to the miniaturization of chip components, have been increased by 50 % over previous values achieved with other amplifiers.

Light-emitting amount selection [FX-301 FX-301-HS FX-305]

If the light receiving level becomes saturated during close-range sensing or when sensing transparent or minute objects, you can adjust the light emitting amount of the sensor to stabilize sensing without needing to change the response time. Sensing that previously required the response time or fibers to be changed can now be set much more easily using this function.

Large display 9999 [FX-305]

Large display with 4 digits (9999). With a greater difference in digit value than previous models, threshold values can be set in units of 1 digit up to maximum 9999. Threshold setting can now be done more easily and accurately.

Ultra high-speed 35 μs response [FX-301-HS]

Ultra high-speed 35 μs response. Even small objects moving at high speeds can be sensed. In addition, at 65 fμs the FX-301 standard type is also twice as fast as previous models.

Simplified systems using new operating modes [FX-305]

A window comparator mode and differential sensing mode have been added. These modes make it easy to carry out sensing tasks that previously required multiple sensors or involved complex threshold settings.

Upper and lower limits for threshold values can be set so that the incident light intensity can turn on and off within those ranges. Single output is used, so that only one cable is required, and no PLC processing is required either.

Equipped with 5 types timers [FX-305]

The FX-305 includes the same ON-delay / OFF-delay / ONE SHOT timer as the FX-301(-HS), as well as an ON-delay ? OFF-delay timer and an ON-delay ? ONE SHOT timer. A wide variety of timer control operations can be carried out by these fiber sensors alone.

Timer period

Output 1: 0.5 to 9,999 ms (variable)

Output 2: 0.5 to 500 ms (variable)

Even beginners can quickly learn how to use the MODE NAVI [All models]

MODE NAVI uses six indicators to display the amplifier's basic operations. The current operating mode can be confirmed at a glance, so even a first time user can easily operate the amplifier without becoming confused.

Easy confirming of threshold value settings [FX-301 FX-301-HS FX-305]

The threshold value can be confirmed by turning the jog switch even during RUN mode.

The use of only two switches makes for very simple operations [All models]

Only two switches, the large jog switch and the large MODE key, are required for operation.

You can operate it simply by the 3 steps shown on the right.

A quick-connection cable saves wiring and work-hours [FX-301/B/G/H FX-301-HS FX-305]

One unit can be used as either a main unit or sub unit The amplifier unit can be used as either a main unit or a sub unit. This feature allows for easy mounting in the side-by-side configuration. The main and sub unit functions are distinguished only by the proper use of the main cable and the sub cable. Moreover, inventory management and maintenance is simplified.

An optical communication function allows up to *16 sensors to be adjusted simultaneously [FX-301 FX

The optical communication function allows the data that is currently set to be copied and saved all at once for all amplifiers connected together from the right side. This greatly reduces troublesome setup tasks and makes setup much smoother.In addition, troublesome adjustment operations at times such as when replacing sensors can also be carried out easily and data can also be copied and stored using the optical communication function.

*Use the optical communication function for only the same types of sensors.

Furthermore, the FX-301-HS is not equipped with optical communication function capability.

Settings can be entered directly using numerical input [All models]

Every function can be directly set merely by the input of a four digit code (numbers) from the code table. This convenient feature is easy to set up. In the event that settings are accidentally changed at the operating site, merely entering the correct code can restore the original settings. This results in easy and quick maintenance.

External input unit for digital sensor [FX-CH2]

Various settings and switching of up to 16 units of digital fiber sensors can be accomplished at once without operating the actual sensors themselves, but via external signals, such as the PLC, touch panel, and push buttons.

Upstream communication unit for digital sensor [SC-GU1-485]

The communication unit enables inputs to the digital fiber sensors (such as teaching and data bank switching) to be carried out via a PLC or a personal computer, and also allows confirming of the incident light intensity an output status for the fiber sensors. This greatly improves workability during equipment starting up and maintenance.
