Notes: 1) Be careful sure to use it only after you have adjusted it sufficiently when installing the thru-beam type fiber equipped with the expansion lens, as the

beam envelope becomes narrow and alignment is difficult.

2) The sensing ranges are the values for red LED type amplifier. Please contact our office for details on sensing ranges for other types of amplifiers.

3) The fiber cable length practically limits the sensing range.

4) The fiber cable length for the

FT-H30-M1V-S is 1 m 3.281 ft. The sensing ranges in U-LG and LONG modes take into account the length of the FT-J8

atmospheric side fiber.

5) Refer to p.15, p18, p.33 and p.35 for the ambient temperatures of fibers to be used in combination.

Refer to p. 69~ for details of lens dimensions.
