Compatible amplifire: FX-500 / FX-550 series only
Note1: The allowable cutting range is 1,000 mm 39.370 in from the end that the amplifier inserted.
Note2: Liquid inflow prevention joint, protective tube extension joint, fiber mounting joint is available.
Note3: Protection structure has been changed from production at February, 2014.
Note4: The design takes into account the environmental testing required by SEMI S2.
To ensure that the final system complies with the standards, you must design and use it in accordance with relevant standards, regulations, and regulations.
Refer to "Digital Fiber Sensor FX-550/FX-550L List of fibers", "Digital Fiber Sensor FX-500 Ver.2 List of fibers" and "Digital Fiber Sensor FX-100 List of fibers" for the sensing range.
tough:
Refers to a fiber which possesses both unbreakable (bending radius: R10 mm R0.394 in, reciprocating bending: 180°) and more flexible (bending radius: R4 mm R0.157 in or less) features.
