Incident light intensity and threshold value
are displayed simultaneously
The incident light intensity and threshold value can be
checked at the same time with no operations needed. In
addition, no complex mode settings are needed when
the values are adjusted.
Easy-to-understand operating panel layout
The threshold value adjuster and operation mode switch
are large and easy to see, and they can be operated with
the same sensitivity as general-purpose photoelectric
sensors. Functions which are not commonly used can be
operated using a non-obtrusive setting switch.
Threshold values can be changed smoothly
This sensor uses the R.S.S.* adjuster with a compact encoder inside.
The sensitivity amount changes depending on the rotation speed of the adjuster, so that
adjustment can be carried out speedily. * Rotation Speed Sensitivity

Excellent workability and ease of maintenance
Connector type
Large endless adjuster
New concept
Standard screwdrivers can be used to turn the adjuster as well
as precision screwdrivers. In addition, an “endless” mechanism
is used which eliminates the possibility of any damage being
caused by turning the adjuster too far.
FX-412 can be turned by nger!
New concept
The adjuster can be turned directly by nger, without the
need for a screwdriver.
Everyday-use
screwdriver is OK
Beam power greatly increased to give strong performance
under adverse environments
Red LED type
The beam power has been greatly increased. This
means a longer sensing distance and less trouble from
problems such as dust. These sensors have ample
performance for workplace needs.

Improved stability over both long and short terms
Red LED type
The red LED type sensors have a “four-chemical emitting
element” which maintains stability of light emissions for
long-term operation. Furthermore, all models have an “APC
(Auto Power Control) circuit” which improves stability at
times such as when the power is turned on. These features
improve overall stability compared to previous models.

The same quick-connection cable that is
used for sensors such as the FX-300 series
of digital ber sensors is used. This means
that they can be used together with other
types of sensors such as laser sensors, and
the number of power supply cables can be
reduced.
A single output line is used, so that wiring can be greatly reduced and space savings can be obtained.

Notes: 1) Note that the sensing range of the free-cut type ber may be reduced by 20 % max. depending upon how the ber is cut.
The sensing range of FR-KZ22E is specied for the attached reector.
The sensing range of FR-KZ50E and FR-KZ50H is specied for the attached reector RF-003. The sensing range of FR-Z50HW is specied for the RF-13.
2) The sensing range is the possible setting range for the attached reector. The ber can detect an object less than setting range for the reector.
However, note that if there are any white or highly-reective surfaces near the ber head, reected incident light may affect the ber head. If this occurs,
adjust the threshold value of the amplier unit before use.
Sensing range when using in combination with FR-Z50HW reector (Optional)
Note: The sensing range is the possible setting range for the reector. The ber can detect an object less than setting range for the reector. However, note that if
there are any white or highly-reective surfaces near the ber head, reected incident light may affect the ber head. If this occurs, adjust the threshold value
of the amplier unit before use.
The sensing ranges are the value for red LED types.

Notes:
1) Be careful sure to use it only after you have adjusted it sufciently when installing the thru-beam type ber equipped with the expansion lens, as the
beam envelope becomes narrow and alignment is difcult.
2) The sensing ranges are the values for red LED type amplier. Please contact our ofce for details on sensing ranges for other types of ampliers.
3) The ber cable length practically limits the sensing range.
4)
The ber cable length for the FT-H30-M1V-S is 1 m 3.281 ft. The sensing ranges in U-LG mode take into account the length of the FT-J8 atmospheric side ber.
5) Refer to p.15, p.18, p.33 and p.35 for the ambient temperatures of bers to be used in combination.
Refer to p.69~ for details of lens dimensions.

• Make sure that the power supply is off while wiring.
• Verify that the supply voltage variation is within the rating.
• Take care that if a voltage exceeding the rated range is
applied, or if an AC power supply is directly connected,
the product may get burnt or damaged.
• In case noise generating equipment (switching regulator,
inverter motor, etc.) is used in the vicinity of this
product, connect the frame ground (F.G.) terminal of the
equipment to an actual ground.
• If power is supplied from a commercial switching
regulator, ensure that the frame ground (F.G.) terminal of
the power supply is connected to an actual ground.
• Take care that short circuit of the load wrong wiring may
burn or damage the product.
• Do not run the wires together with high-voltage lines or
power lines or put them in the same raceway. This can
cause malfunction due to induction.
• Extension up to total 100 m 328.084 ft (if 5 to 8 units are
connected in cascade: 50 m 164.042 ft, if 9 to 16 units
are connected in cascade: 20 m 65.617 ft) is possible
with 0.3 mm2, or more, cable. However, in order to
reduce noise, make the wiring as short as possible.
• Take care that cable extension increases the residual
voltage.

• Insert the ber into the amplier after attaching the
attachment. Refer to the "Instruction Manual" included
with the ber for details.
Push the ber lock lever down.
Slowly insert the ber into the insertion
slot until it stops. (Note 1)
Push the ber lock lever back up until
it stops.
Notes: 1)
Note that if the ber is not fully inserted, the sensing distance will
decrease. Also note that the exible ber may bend during insertion.
2) In case of coaxial reective type bers, mount the central
ber (single-core) to the emitter part and the peripheral ber
(multi-core) to the receiver. Note that sensing precision will
deteriorate when done in reverse.

Cascading
• Make sure that the power supply is off while adding or
removing the ampliers.
• Make sure to check the allowable ambient temperature,
as it depends on the number of ampliers connected in
cascade.
• In case two, or more, ampliers are connected in
cascade, make sure to mount them on a DIN rail.
• When the ampliers move on the DIN rail depending
on the attaching condition or the ampliers are
mounted close to each other in cascade, t them
between the optional end plates (MS-DIN-E) mounted
at the two ends.
• Up to maximum 15 ampliers can be added (total 16
ampliers connected in cascade.)
• When connecting more than two ampliers in
cascade, use the sub cable (CN-71-C□) as the quick-
connection cable for the second amplier onwards.
• When connecting ampliers not close to each other
in parallel, be sure to mount the optional end plate
(MS-DIN-E) at both sides of each amplier or afx
the communication window seal of the optional
ber amplier protection seal (FX-MB1) to the
communication windows. For details, refer to the
instruction manual enclosed with the FX-MB1.
• When the different LED (red / blue / green) types are
connected in cascade, mount the identical models
together.
• When this product is used with the other digital ber
ampliers, be sure to place this product to the left
most position (When you look from the connector
side). If this product is not placed to the leftmost
position, this product may not operate properly.
• When the setting switch is pressed and held for 2 sec. or
more, “SET” mode (mode setting screen) is activated.
• If the setting switch is pressed while in “SET” mode, the
mode will change.
• If the threshold value adjuster is turned while a mode is
active, the setting item will change and blink.
• When the setting switch is pressed at the item you
would like to set, it blinks 3 times and then the setting is
conrmed and the mode switches to the next mode.
• If the setting switch is pressed and held for 2 sec. or
more or do not press any key for 15 sec. while “SET”
mode is active, the mode will switch automatically to
“RUN” mode.

end plates
(MS-DIN-E) at both
the ends to hold the
ampliers between
their at sides.
Tighten the screws to
x the end plates.
Loosen the screws of
the end plates.
Remove the end
plates.
Slide the ampliers
and remove them
one by one.
• The operation selection switch can be used to display
different output operations (L-ON / D-ON) on the digital
display.
• When the threshold value adjuster is turned clockwise,
the threshold value increases. When the threshold value
adjuster is turned counterclockwise, the threshold value
decreases.
When set to Dark-ON (D-ON)
When set to Light-ON (L-ON)
Threshold value setting method
Check the incident light
intensity [in the digital display
(red)] when a sensing object
is placed in the sensing
position.
Check the incident light
intensity [in the digital display
(red)] when the sensing object
is removed from the sensing
position.
Turn the threshold value adjuster to the threshold value
[in the digital display (green)] that is the value in between
and . (The threshold value is automatically written
to the EEPROM.)
