FT-420-10 Through-Beam Fiber Optic Sensor Autonics
The Autonics FT-420-10 is a high-precision, threaded through-beam fiber optic cable sensor designed for reliable non-contact object detection in space-restricted industrial automation systems. This sensor configuration consists of a separate emitter and receiver cable unit. When used in tandem with an Autonics fiber optic amplifier (such as the BF5, BF4, or BF3 Series), it establishes a highly focused sensing barrier capable of detecting minute targets, fast-moving parts, or components in tight machine clearances.
Designed with standard M4 threaded heads, the FT-420-10 allows for straightforward mounting through simple pre-drilled holes, secured tightly with the included hex nuts. The high-flexibility fiber cable core delivers exceptional light transmission efficiency and can be easily routed around tight corners and moving machinery parts without signal degradation.
