Plastic Diffuse Fiber Optic Cables For SU15-K, SU16, SU17, SU17.1, MHP-FR, MPF2HD, and ML17-LL

Our photoelectric fiber optic cables include plastic diffuse mode cables, which are compatible with all SU18, SU19, MHP-FR and ML17-LL amplifiers. Fiber optic cables are a sensible solution for applications involving small targets or unfavorable conditions. When the fiber optic cables are attached to the compatible sensor/amplifier, they guide light from the sensing head to and from the sensor. Pepperl+Fuchs offers both diffuse mode and thru-beam mode cables available in both glass and plastic. The cable type, not the sensor, determines the sensing characteristics.

Plastic fiber optic cables are manufactured from a light conductive plastic monofilament material, which is protected by a PVC jacket. The plastic cables are generally utilized due to their small size and narrow beam diameter. This enables easy detection of small parts such as pins on an IC chip. Plastic cables can be “cut-to-length” in the field; therefore the correct length doesn’t have to be specified when ordering. Diffuse mode sensing uses a bifurcated (2 in 1) cable. This sensing mode both emits and receives light in one sensing head. Only one diffuse mode cable needs to be purchased per sensor. The available SU18, SU19, MHP-FR and ML17-LL compatible diffuse mode plastic cables are shown below.
