Long-range sensing made possible with built-in optical lens

For the first time in the industry, an optical ‘double coupling lens’ has been incorporated directly into the fiber sensor itself. This lens maximizes the light emission efficiency, resulting in a tremendous improvement in the sensing range. Sensing ranges with small diameter fibers and ultra-small diameter fibers, which have become very popular in recent years due to the miniaturization of chip components, have been increased by 50 % over previous values achieved with other amplifiers.

Stable long-term sensing

The newly developed four-chemical emitting element that uses the FX-301(red LED type) suppresses changes over long periods of time as much as possible, so that a stable light emitting level is maintained. There is very little element deterioration so that stable and accurate sensing can be maintained over long periods.

Selectable response time

We offer 4 selectable levels to correspond with various applications: the response time 150 !s FAST mode, the LONG mode, perfect for adverse environments, and the S-D mode, especially made for minute detection.

Enhanced worksite-friendly installability

Our new fiber cutter utilizes a specially developed two-in-one fiber attachment that now makes it possible to cut two fibers simultaneously to exactly the same length. Also, since the fibers can be attached to the amplifier while being fixed in position in the two-in-one fiber attachment, sensitivity changes due to variation in the amount of fiber insertion do not occur.
