Module de scanner à fibre optique multifaisceau SBFX1 Banner

The SBFX1 is a high-power fiber optic scanner module in the MULTI-BEAM series manufactured by Banner Engineering, serving as one of the core components of a modular photoelectric sensor system. It integrates both emitter and receiver, and can be connected to one bifurcated fiber assembly or two separate fiber cables. Featuring industry-leading excess gain, it is designed for long-range through-beam fiber optic detection in harsh industrial environments.

3. Operating Environments and Typical Applications
4. Harsh industrial environments: High excess gain ensures reliable operation in dusty, oily, and humid conditions.
5. Détection dans des espaces confinés: Fiber extension enables sensing in locations where the sensor body cannot be mounted.
6. Small target detection: Works with miniature bifurcated fibers as small as 0.5 mm diameter for precise detection.
7. Long-range through-beam: Supports extended sensing ranges with suitable fibers (note: for ultra-long ranges, the separate emitter/receiver combination SBEXF/SBRXF1 is recommended).
8. Irregularly shaped targets: Fiber sensing tips can be custom-shaped to match specific target profiles.

Applications typiques:

Part positioning and counting on automated production lines

Material presence detection on packaging equipment

Level and fill detection in food and beverage industry

Component assembly verification in automotive manufacturing

Wafer and component inspection in semiconductor industry

5. Notes d'utilisation
6. Sélection des fibres:

Through-beam mode: Recommended IT13S (1.6 mm diamètre) or IT23S (3.18 mm diamètre) separate fiber pairs

Mode diffus: Recommended BT13S (1.6 mm diamètre) or BT23S (3.18 mm diamètre) bifurcated fibers

Long-distance applications: SBEXF/SBRXF1 separate combination recommended instead of SBFX1

2. Power and Logic Modules:

Must be used with a 3-wire or 4-wire power module (par ex., PBT, PBP, PBO, PBAT, etc.)

Logic modules (LM series) provide timing functions and light/dark operate selection

Power must be disconnected before changing light/dark operate jumpers

3. Installation and Setup:

Adjust sensitivity only after fiber alignment

AID™ indicator pulse frequency below 2 Hz indicates insufficient detection margin; clean fibers or realign as needed

Avoid use in strong electromagnetic interference environments; use shielded cable if necessary

4. Entretien:

Regularly clean fiber end faces to prevent oil and dust from affecting accuracy

Inspect fibers for damage or excessive bending (minimum bend radius 19 mm)

No special maintenance required for the sensor body; VALOX® housing offers excellent corrosion resistance
