This sensor uses a glass fiber optic array with a right-angle beam exit, allowing flexible installation in space-constrained machinery. Its stainless steel monocoil sheathing provides mechanical durability, while the polyethylene sensing end supports consistent optical performance. Designed to operate with compatible Banner fiber optic amplifiers, it is suited for industrial environments requiring stable and repeatable sensing. Key Features: Glass Fiber Optic Array Sensor: Provides area-based detection using a multi-element fiber array. Diffuse Sensing Mode: Detects objects directly without the need for reflectors. Rectangular Array Design: Supports wide-area sensing for presence and alignment detection. Right-Angle Beam Exit: Enables flexible routing and installation in tight spaces. Stainless Steel Monocoil Sheathing: Enhances durability and resistance to mechanical stress. Industrial Temperature Capability: Rated for operation up to 105°C. Terminated Fiber Construction: Supplied ready for integration with compatible amplifiers. The BR23SMCSC delivers the reliability and precision required for fiber optic area sensing in industrial automation systems.
