It is suitable for object counting, presence detection and position monitoring. The sensor accessory is designed for integration with compatible IFM fibre optic systems.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
E20752 provides a through-beam optical arrangement for industrial sensing applications. The optical path is interrupted when an object passes through the detection area. Fibre optics allow the sensing point to be positioned where conventional sensor bodies may not fit. The product supports flexible machine integration. It is suitable for automated production and material-handling systems.
The model is identified as FE-11-EPA-M6/F1X1/2M. Its M6 mounting arrangement supports mechanical installation at the sensing location. The F1X1 configuration provides the required fibre arrangement for through-beam sensing. Correct transmitter and receiver alignment is essential. The system should be used with compatible IFM fibre optic electronics.
The through-beam principle provides a clear optical detection path. Fibre optics allow compact installation near moving components. The arrangement can support repeatable detection in automated processes. It is suitable for applications requiring reliable object interruption sensing. Proper alignment and secure mounting help maintain performance.
E20752 can be used in packaging and conveyor systems. It is suitable for object counting and position monitoring. The fibre should be routed carefully to avoid excessive mechanical stress. Both optical elements should remain correctly aligned. The completed installation should be tested under actual operating conditions.
