Notes: 1) The sensing ranges are the values when used in combination with red LED type amplifier. Please contact our office for details on sensing ranges for other

types of amplifier.

2) Refer to p.16 or p.26 for the ambient temperatures of fibers to be used in combination.

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