FIBER OPTIC SENSORS
Panasonic fiber optic sensors are unmatched in quality
and performance. High speed detections coupled with
unparalleled stability give you the best performance possible.
With over 200 different fiber optic cables, you're sure to find
one for your application, no matter how specialized.
well as interference prevention.
Additionally, Panasonic fiber optic sensors utilize a universal
power connection system to decrease wiring and share
power over an array of sensors. Simply select a main
cable for the first unit in the array and a sub cable for each
subsequent sensor.
An integrated optical communication port on the FX-500
and FX-300 series allow for remote configuration/control as
