Notes :

1) We offer only semi-custom products in which the fiber length can be specified in 1 m 39.37 in increments. For details, please contact our sales office.
2) that the sensing range of the free-cut type fiber may be reduced by 20 % max. depending upon how the fiber is cut.
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.

Vacuum-resistant flange

Applicable fibers are FT-40V, FD-KZ50V, FD-L10V and FT-J9.

Designation Model No. Description
Vacuum-resistant
flange 1CH
FV-FR1 Atmospheric side and vacuum side are isolated.
Recommended thickness of vacuum chamber wall
・For FV-FR1: 3.0 to 40.0 mm 0.118 to 1.575 in (Note 1)
Vacuum-resistant
flange 4CH
FV-FR4 Atmospheric side and vacuum side are isolated.
Recommended thickness of vacuum chamber wall
・For FV-FR4: 3.0 mm 0.118 in or more (Note 2)

Notes :

1) Confirm the wall thickness in advance since the FV-FR1 cannot be installed to a vacuum chamber with a wall thickness outside the recommended thickness range.
2) If the vacuum chamber wall is too thick, the FV-FR4 may not be able to connect to the vacuum side fiber. In that case, connect the FV-FR4 to the vacuum side fiber before the installation.
