TAKEX FR105BC FR5BC M6 Long-Range Reflective Fiber Sensors

• Up to 1,200 mm detection: FR105BC provides a maximum detecting distance of 1,200 mm, while FR5BC provides up to 1,000 mm.
• M6 threaded sensing head: Both models use an M6 threaded sensing head with a maximum tightening torque of 0.8 N·m.
• 2 m free-cutting fiber: FR105BC and FR5BC both use 2 m free-cutting fibers that can be adjusted to suit equipment routing requirements.
• Different fiber core sizes: FR105BC uses a φ1.5 mm fiber core, while FR5BC uses a φ1.0 mm core for different sensing requirements.
• −30 to +70°C operation: Both models operate from −30 to +70°C. FR105BC has an R45 allowable bending radius, while FR5BC uses R30.

Q1: What are TAKEX FR105BC and FR5BC?
A: They are M6 threaded reflective fiber optic units that transmit and receive light from the same sensing side.

Q2: What is the difference between FR105BC and FR5BC?

Q3: What is the maximum detecting distance of FR105BC?
A: The maximum detecting distance is 1,200 mm.

Q4: What is the maximum detecting distance of FR5BC?
A: The maximum detecting distance is 1,000 mm.

Q5: What tip size do FR105BC and FR5BC use?
A: Both models use an M6 threaded sensing head.

Q6: What is the fiber length of FR105BC and FR5BC?
A: Both models use 2 m free-cutting fibers.

Q7: Do FR105BC and FR5BC have the same bending radius?
A: No. FR105BC has an R45 allowable bending radius, while FR5BC has an R30 radius.

Q8: What is the operating temperature range?
A: Both models operate from −30 to +70°C.

Q9: What materials are used for the fibers?
A: Both models use polyethylene fiber covering and plastic fiber cores.

Q10: How should I choose between FR105BC and FR5BC?
A: Choose FR105BC when a longer maximum detecting distance of 1,200 mm is required. FR5BC provides up to 1,000 mm detection with an R30 bending radius.
