R55FQ

R55FQ is a R55F series fiber-optic sensor developed to provide simplicity of operation and access to tight areas for color mark sensing applications. R55F sensor features TEACH sensitivity adjustment, by presenting the light and the dark sensing conditions to the sensor. In addition, sensitivity may be finetuned at any time by clicking the + or - buttons on the sensor. The ten-element signal strength light bar clearly displays the relative received signal strength. The bipolar (one NPN and one PNP) outputs may be configured to include a 20- or 40-millisecond pulse stretcher (OFF Delay), if required. Both TEACH sensitivity adjustment and output setup are accomplished using the pushbuttons on the sensor, or by supplying input pulses using the remote line. Depending on beam color, reliably detects toughest color mark contrasts, including 20% yellow against white.

• Outstanding color contrast sensitivity, detects 16 levels of gray scale, IP67 rating
• Fibers mount in small and otherwise inaccessible areas, NEMA 6 rating
• Manual sensitivity adjustment, non-volatile memory
• Glass fiber models function well in harsh environments typically associated with printing processes
• Plastic fiber models function well in applications that require repeated flexing of the fibers
• Fibers install quickly without tools, bipolar (NPN/PNP) o/ps with 3 delay settings (0, 20 or 40ms)
• Infrared, 880nm color, 5-pin M12/Euro-style male quick disconnect cable
• Operating temperature range from -10 to 55°C
