Overview
The Keyence FS-T2 is a fiber optic sensor amplifier designed as an expansion unit for one-line fiber optic sensing systems. Part of the FS-V/T/M series, this amplifier provides manual calibration and NPN output configuration, making it suitable for discrete sensing tasks in industrial automation and motion control environments.
Key Features
- One-touch calibration for quick setup and adjustment
- NPN output type for compatibility with PLC and controller logic inputs
- Compact polycarbonate housing for durability
- Red/green/orange LED indicator lights for operational status monitoring
- Low power consumption at 35 mA or less
- Selectable timer functions: ON-delay, OFF-delay, or timer OFF modes
