FT-140

The FT-140 optical sensor is designed for use in industrial applications and offers a range of benefits when compared to traditional photoelectric sensors. This model is designed to detect and pick up non-contact objects, a type of sensing that is used in various industries such as automotive, robotics and construction. The FT-140 includes an array of different features, and its uses range from general-purpose sensing to applications with more specific requirements.

The FT-140 offers both NPN and PNP sensing capabilities, allowing it to be used in different types of existing equipment. It has either reverse or normally open outputs, both with a built-in delay function that can be adjusted. The delay time can be ranged from 0 to 2 milliseconds, providing users with additional flexibility. It also utilizes an LED indicator that can be helpful in identifying when an object is detected. The FT-140 also features a wide operating temperature range of -25 to +80°C, making it suitable for a variety of environments.

The FT-140 offers both a wide sensing distance and a wide beam angle. This is particularly important for industrial applications where space is limited. Selectivity, stability, and repeatability of the FT-140 are also factors that make it a reliable choice for many industrial applications. It is also highly resistant to vibrations and interference from other sources, further increasing its reliability.

When it comes to the technology that makes the FT-140 work so efficiently, it is the combination of both an emitter and a receiver. The receiver is the most essential part of the sensor and it works by detecting and recognizing objects that pass within a given area. The emitter connected to the sensor uses light signals that are reflected and picked up by the receiver. This signaling is what makes the FT-140 so effective at detecting objects in a wide variety of industrial applications.

Another feature of the FT-140 is its ability to detect through various objects including mist, smoke, and dust. Its frequency range is also adjustable from 20 to 500 Hz, making it simple to use multiple emitter-receiver combinations. With its wide beam angle of 940°, the FT-140 can detect multiple objects simultaneously. This is an important feature for applications that require a longer detection range, such as for remote sensing and monitoring.

In addition to its features, the FT-140 is an affordable and reliable option for industrial applications. Its various features, including its adjustable sensing distance, make it suitable for a wide variety of applications. It is also an excellent choice for applications with specific requirements, as its capabilities and features can be adjusted to meet the requirement of any situation. Ultimately, the FT-140 is a great choice when it comes to providing reliable, high-performance optical sensing.
