Product Features (Bedook Fork Photoelectric Sensor FG35-X 5mm DC4 Wire)

Introducing the Bedook Fork Photoelectric Sensor FG35-X 5mm DC4 Wire, a state – of – the – art solution for precise object detection. This small through-beam sensor combines advanced technology with a user-friendly design. The 5mm fixed sensing distance strikes a perfect balance between sensitivity and practicality, allowing it to detect small objects with great accuracy while being suitable for a wide range of installation distances. The sensor’s wide operating voltage range and low current consumption make it an ideal choice for both energy-conscious and power-diverse applications. Bedook’s attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this product, from its compliance with EMC and RoHS directives to its high-quality materials and construction, ensuring long-term reliability and safety.

1. Precise Sensing Capability: With a 5mm fixed sensing distance and the ability to detect minimum 0.8mm×1.2mm opaque objects, the Bedook Fork Photoelectric Sensor FG35-X 5mm DC4 Wire offers high-precision detection. In comparison to some competing products, it provides more accurate and consistent results. For example, in the production of micro-electronic components, where the size of parts is extremely small, its precise sensing can significantly reduce errors and improve the overall quality of the final product.
2. Wide Operating Voltage Range: Operating within the range of 5V DC to 24V DC ±10%, it can adapt to different power sources in various industrial environments. This flexibility is a significant advantage over many similar sensors that have a more limited voltage range. Whether it’s a small-scale production line powered by a 5V battery or a large-scale industrial plant with a 24V power system, the Bedook sensor can operate smoothly without the need for complex voltage conversion setups, saving both time and cost in installation and maintenance.
3. Low Current Consumption: Consuming less than 15mA, the sensor is highly energy-efficient. In large-scale industrial applications where multiple sensors are deployed, this low power consumption can lead to substantial energy savings over time. Moreover, lower power consumption also means less heat generation, which helps in maintaining the stability of the sensor and the overall system, reducing the risk of overheating-related failures and extending the lifespan of the equipment.
4. Dual Output Functions: The availability of Light-on ON and Light-shade ON output functions provides users with the flexibility to customize the sensor’s operation according to their specific requirements. For instance, in a packaging line, the Light-shade ON function can be used to detect when a product passes through the sensor’s beam, while the Light-on ON function can be used to detect the absence of an object. This dual-function feature is not commonly found in all competing products, giving the Bedook Fork Photoelectric Sensor FG35-X 5mm DC4 Wire an edge in adaptability.
5. Good Repeatability and Response Time: The sensor has a repeatability accuracy of <0.01mm and a fast response time, with light-on <20μs and light-shade <80μs, along with a maximum frequency of 3000Hz. In applications that require high-speed and repetitive operations, such as in the production of consumer goods on a high-volume assembly line, these features are crucial. They enable real-time monitoring and control, improving the overall productivity and quality of the production process.
6. Decent Ingress Protection and Environmental Tolerance: With an IP40 ingress protection rating, the sensor is protected against solid objects such as dust. It can operate in an ambient temperature range of – 25℃ to + 55℃ and be stored in a range of – 30℃ to + 80℃, and can handle an ambient humidity range of 5%RH to 85%RH (storage: 5%RH to 95%RH). This makes it suitable for use in a variety of environments, including those with moderate levels of dust and temperature fluctuations. Some competing sensors may have lower protection ratings or more limited environmental tolerance, making the Bedook sensor a more reliable choice in such conditions.
