Banner Plastic Fibre Optic Sensor

Plastic fibre optics are a more economical alternative to glass fibre optics and are ideal for piping photoelectric sensing light to and from confined areas with suitable environments. There is a wide variety of sensing heads and fibre core diameters to choose from making them suitable for many possible applications.

Features:
Ideal for detecting small objects
Withstand repeated flexing and bending
Available in individual or bifurcated styles
Available with optional DURA-BEND™ fibres for improved flexibility for difficult-to-access locations, without the decreased performance to which excessively bent standard plastic fibres optics are prone
Available with core diameters of 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1.0 and 1.5 mm
Operating temperature range: -3 to +70 °C (unless otherwise specified)
