An Extensive Selection of Fiber-Optic Cables
Fiber-Optic Sensing Heads Offer a
Wide Variety of Unique Solutions for
Tough Problems

Fiber-optic sensors detect small,

fast-moving objects in space-confined
installations and harsh environments
For a custom fit in the field, most plastic
filament cables can be cut to length
For detection in hard-to-reach places,
sensing heads with bendable stainless steel
tubing retain complex shapes
Coiled and ultra-flexible cables are ideal for
flexing and reciprocating machinery such as
robots
Side-view sensing heads or accessories
save space in right-angle detection
Convergent beam sensing heads allow
accurate positioning and background
suppression even for shiny objects
Narrow detection zone of concentric beam
sensing heads helps eliminate background
objects and gives consistent sensing,
regardless of object direction
Highly flexible fibers with minimum 1-mm
bending radius allows cable to conform to
machine contours
Most fiber cables offer IP67 protection and
temperature ratings of --40°C to 70°C
(--40°F to 158°F)

Ordering Information
Omron offers fiber-optic cables in through-beam, diffuse and
retroreflective types. Each cable has a different sensing distance
depending on the amplifier selected. The ordering information
provides the sensing distance and compatibility with two general
classes of amplifiers: DIN rail-mounting DC amplifiers and block
style amplifiers with different attributes, such as AC/DC supply
voltage, analog output and color sensing.
indicates models that customers can cut to length for their
application. Models without this mark are pre-cut by the factory to
maintain their respective specifications.
