Measuring lightcurtain in robust aluminium housing
F3EM
Measuring lightcurtain
in robust aluminium
housing
The F3EM provides easy to install and set
up height and profile measurement. The
analog output provides a simple overall
height detection and the serial output models provide single beam evaluation for profile measurements.
• Robust aluminium housing
• Analog output for simple height detections
• Serial output with single beam evaluation
for profile measurement
