D3RF/D3IF Series
Easy-to-use and low cost. The 3rd generation of high-speed Fiber-Optic Sensors.
- Industry's No.1Fastest high-speed response in the world
Supports cross talk prevention functions for up to 2 units, even in the fastest mode - New generation specifications for sensing distance as well
- 100% display for better recognition of level change
No. 1 in speed and power.

Fastest high-speed response in the world
Our originally developed super high-speed processor “FAntron DUO” enables the fastest speed in its class at 16 μs (stand-alone/1-HS mode). It can detect over 30,000 workpieces per second. Maximum speed during linked use is 22 μs (1-HS mode). It can prevent cross talk for up to 2 units even in maximum speed mode. Copying of setting is also possible. Seven response times can be selected: 1-HS, 2-FS, 3-ST, 4-LG, 5-PL, 6-UL and 7-EL.

New generation specifications for sensing distance as well
With the new built-in “FAntron DUO” processor, a long and short dual pulse width emission is realized, instead of the conventional single pulse width emissions. In addition, due to the synergistic effect of the high power LEDs and high efficiency condensing lens, sensing distance is increased a maximum of 3× compared to conventional products with diffuse types, and a maximum of 5× compared to conventional products with through-beam types. Long range detection becomes possible even for heat resistant and flexible fibers, in which until now long range detection has been difficult.

-
Power saving in ECO mode
Features an ECO mode that enables power saving by turning off the sub-monitor (green) and darkening the main-monitor (red).


More convenient, even when linked.
Cross talk prevention
Prevents malfunctions caused by cross talk by linking master and slave units to electrically shift the timing of the emitting element. Up to 12 units can be linked closely together, with up to 16 units in ECO mode.

Batch setting of Fiber-Optic Sensors
Settings can be made collectively for linked (expanded) Fiber-Optic Sensors. Zero reset and various types of teaching, as well as copying of Fiber-Optic Sensors settings from upstream (master unit side) to downstream (terminal slave unit side) can be performed.

-
Detection of only water is possible
Employs an infrared LED (wavelength: 1.45 μm) for the light source that are absorbed by water. Detection of only water is made possible using water detection Fiber-Optic Sensors D3IF-TN and the specialized Fiber-Optic Cables shown on the right.

Easy to see and intuitive
-
Widest display in the industry.
The display area is equipped with the widest display in the industry, expanded by 4 mm compared to conventional models. The adoption of high brightness LEDs, a 7-segment display, with high brightness and high visibility even from a distance is made possible.

-
100% display for better recognition of level change
Display for receiving light quantity can be changed to a percentage display with one simple single action, making changes in receiving light quantity are easy to recognize even when linked.

Dual “ASC” for easy maintenance (Through Teaching or Percent Teaching)
Unique functionality in which automatic sensitivity corrections are performed when light level decreases occur due to contamination of fiber tips caused by dust, etc. After cleaning, the threshold value is automatically restored, so there is no need for re-teaching. *For dual output types, ASC operates only for control output 1.

Cordial design to prevent misoperation
By featuring a design in which basic setup can be performed by pressing the teach button for 2 seconds and in which advanced functions are performed at deeper levels, setting changes caused by misoperation can be prevented.

-
“FALUX” function that suppresses fluctuations in emitting power.
A temperature correction circuit in the emitting circuit suppresses emission power fluctuations caused by temperature changes. Stable detection can be performed with little change in brightness, even immediately after turning the power on. Since the brightness of the emitting LED is constant without being influenced by the internal temperature, heat sinks and an APC, which accelerates the deterioration of the LED, become unnecessary.

-
Adjustable hysteresis
Hysteresis can be adjusted widely from 1% to 40%. This enables the sensor to be optimized for detecting slight differences in parts or applications with a lot of vibration.
