Specification notes
Q1: What are TAKEX FTSV5BC, FTSV73BC, FTSV82BC, and FTSV93BC?
A: They are side-view SUS stainless steel tube through-beam fiber optic units for non-contact object detection in automated equipment.
Q2: What are the main differences among these four models?
A: The primary differences are sensing tip dimensions, SUS tube length, allowable fiber bending radius, and detecting distance. FTSV5BC uses an M4 threaded 65 mm SUS tube, while the other models have 20 mm SUS tubes.
Q3: What is the sensing head configuration of FTSV5BC?
A: FTSV5BC features an M4 × P0.7 threaded head with a 65 mm side-view SUS tube. The maximum thread tightening torque is 0.8 N·m.
Q4: How do the sensing tips of FTSV73BC, FTSV82BC, and FTSV93BC differ?
A: All three models have 20 mm SUS tubes. Their tip diameters are φ1.48, φ1.0, and φ0.88 mm, respectively.
Q5: Can the SUS tubes of these four models be bent?
A: The marked SUS tube sections must not be bent. The connected fiber cables have their own allowable bending radii, which must be observed separately.
Q6: What are the detecting distances with F80R?
A: With F80R in long-distance mode, FTSV5BC provides 500 mm, FTSV73BC 440 mm, FTSV82BC 130 mm, and FTSV93BC 40 mm.
Q7: What is the detecting distance of FTSV73BC with F85RN?
A: With F85RN, FTSV73BC provides 1,090 mm in long-distance mode and 260 mm in high-speed mode.
Q8: Which model is suitable for tighter fiber cable routing?
A: FTSV93BC has an R4 (4 mm) allowable fiber bending radius, compared with R15 for FTSV82BC and R30 for FTSV5BC and FTSV73BC. These limits apply to the fiber cables, not the non-bendable SUS tube sections.
Q9: How long are the fibers, and can they be cut?
A: All four models include 2 m free-cutting fiber cables and have an ambient operating temperature range of −30 to +70°C.
Q10: How should I select a side-view SUS tube fiber optic unit?
A: Check the required sensing direction, mounting dimensions, and SUS tube length. Then compare tip diameter, fiber bending radius, and detecting distance with the chosen amplifier.
