Features
High reliability and flexibility:
Test input: Function of multi-beam sensor can be tested by transmitter cut off on test signal. A subsequent receiver cut off can be
monitored by control unit.
Ray failure toleration: As soon as one channel is not switching for more than 60 seconds, the F3E identifies a defect and deactivates this channel. The sensor then functions normally again showing the defect channel by a red error LED.
Easy parameterization: By test input of transmitter a parameterization of L-ON/D-ON operation and shading of LED areas is possible. No complicated programming or remote control needed
Potential free output: The F3E provides a wear-free electronic relay output for highest connection flexibility and life-time.

in dirty environment or at highest distances, no adjustment is necessary. Sensitivity control ensures
that the high resolution is maintained at small distances close to "zero".
