Exclusive detection ASIC*
The exclusive detection ASIC is capable of processing ultra high-speed calculations while offering a long sensing range.
The sensors have fast response time, long sensing range, high accuracy, and stability, which open up a whole new era of digital fiber sensors.

* Application-Specific Integrated Circuit

High stability!

"Why are the values different even for the same detection?", "If we try to forcibly unify all the display values of incident light intensity, we will not be able to read the actual changes."
SUNX focuses on the variation among fiber sensors and aims for absolute digitalization.
When the FX-500 series is used together with our super quality fiber, the incident light intensity variation among units is decreased to only 1/4 of that of conventional models.
By being close to absolute values instead of modified digital values, changes in detection that could not be found in the past can now be monitored.

■Specifying just one value in an operation manual is possible

■Maintenance is easy on stabilized fiber sensors

■Stability in incident light intensity and confidence in beam adjustment

A quality that surpassed standard fiber
Introducing super quality fiber

・Variation in emission intensity is down to less than ±10 %

Ultra high-speed & Ultra long range detection

The exclusive detection IC combined with the high intensity beam emitted from the active coupling emission device provides the capability of offering high-speed response time over a longer sensing range, opening up new possibilities for fiber sensor detection.

■Max. 25 μs response time
FX-500 with its ultra high response time improves productivity.

■HYPR (Hyper) mode incorporated
FX-500 in combination with small diameter fibers which can handle challenging detections, allows super long sensing range.

■Long sensing range with small diameter fibers
Small diameter fibers with a compact head can perform long range and stable detection for minute objects.

■Long sensing range even in high speed mode
A high speed response time of 25 μs, which is 2.6 times more than previous, and a long sensing range are now possible in high speed mode.

・The active coupling emission device efficiently range and stable detection for minute objects.

A different accuracy!

FX-500 with its accurate detection catches fractional difference in light intensity, fulfilling high precision and low-hysteresis applications.

■Long range detection of small objects with small difference in light intensity [H-02 mode]

■Highly accurate detection while avoiding saturation [H-01 mode]
Even when the received light becomes saturated, the FX-500 series cuts down hysteresis to the utmost limit in order to produce the optimal margin for detection.

New form!

■Flat display with wide viewing angle
The large and high-contrast 7-segment display of high luminance provides clear visibility from a wide angle of view.

■Streamlined fiber clutch
While the conventional fiber installation is done after opening up the cover, the FX-500 series adopts a guard structure, eliminating the cover so that the fiber installation can be done in one step.

■MODE NAVI + Direct setting
MODE NAVI uses three indicators and a dual display to show the amplifier's basic operations. The current operation mode can be confirmed at a glance, so even a first time user can easily operate the amplifier.

A 4 to 20 mA analog output Edge tracking of film or sheet represents the digital value of incident light intensity

A variety of functions at the industry's leading edge

■Display adjustment setting
Even if there is no problem in detection, the variation in display may make it difficult for an operator to verify proper operation. By using the display adjustment setting, random values can be adjusted, and the visual variation can be resolved to help define proper operation in an operation manual.

■Stabilized emission intensity
The "four-chemical emitting element" was first incorporated in the conventional model FX-300 to maintain a stable level of light emission and has now become an industry standard. FX-500 series continues to adopt the same emitting element as well as the "APC (Auto Power Control) circuit" which improves stability in short periods such as when the power is turned on.

■Threshold tracking function
This function seeks changes in the light emitting amount resulting from changes in the environment over long periods (such as dust levels), so that the incident light intensity can be checked at desired intervals and the threshold values can be reset automatically.
