5. FAQs
Q1: Can the amplifier work without a fiber optic sensor head?
A1: No. The amplifier must be used together with a compatible fiber optic sensor head to function.
Q2: What types of fiber optic heads are supported?
A2: The amplifier supports diffuse type, through-beam type, right-angle diffuse, and right-angle through-beam fiber sensor heads.
Q3: Can it detect transparent materials?
A3: Yes. It is equipped with fine light detection capabilities, allowing reliable detection of transparent or highly reflective objects.
