Omron has expanded its N-Smart portfolio of smart laser sensors and amplifiers with the launch of the E3NX-FA range of fibre amplifiers. Available with a single output as standard and two outputs on advanced models, these amplifiers offer fast auto-tuning, support for manual tuning and a dynamic range to ensure stable detection of targets.
With advanced smart tuning, the user presses the tuning button once with the target present, and again with the target absent, to automatically set the optimum incident level and threshold. Manual tuning options are also supported to enable the detection mode and threshold to be optimised, ensuring greater detection stability in challenging applications.
The dynamic range has been increased by a factor of 40,000 to provide enhanced detection reliability. Incident light adjustment in as little as 30µs in high speed mode enables more stable detection of faster targets.
The E3NX-FA features Omron’s Dynamic Power Control (DPC) technology to automatically compensate for changes in the incident light level. Another feature of the E3NX-FA amplifiers is the high contrast, white on black display that is clearly visible even from long distances.
E3NX-FA amplifiers are available pre-wired (two metre length) or with a wire saving connector. An additional model offers connection to an EtherCAT-based sensor communications unit for high speed transmission of I/O-signals and incident light levels.
