Bulletin 45FVL DIN-Rail Mountable Digital Fiber Optic Photoelectric Sensors

Rockwell Automation sets a new standard with the introduction of an innovative DIN-rail mountable fiber optic photoelectric sensor. The Allen-Bradley Bulletin 45FVL offers sophisticated part detection, diagnostic and self-teach capabilities in a slim 9mm package.

This sensor’s advanced “self-teach” function samples and learns a target to determine its own sensitivity and hysteresis settings for easy and reliable operation. And for improved efficiency, the 45FVL is available with a “Power Bus” interface, allowing the user to jumper power across several units and save costly wiring time. Additional features include:

• Digital display clearly shows various operating modes, functions and diagnostic information
• Setup is as easy as “Ready-Point-Teach”
• 40ms off-delay (“pulse-stretcher”) for high speed applications
• Red, Green, Blue, and White light source options help optimise sensitivity to target colour
• Built-in protocols to resist cross-talk interference
• Space-saving 9mm body is smallest in industry
• Automatic and manual sensitivity adjustment for precision sensing
• Mounting bracket and fiber optic cable adapter included
