SICK Snímač pro vláknovou optiku Sklo vlákno

Overview

For any application oriented sensor solution, a suitable fibber optic cable must be chosen. At SICK, the broad range of fibber optic cables made from plastic and glass fibbers permits optimal automation solutions. This applies in particular to tasks for which the fibber optic cable requires application-specific adaption, where flexible cable installation is crucial, where high temperatures prevail, or a particular material compatibility is important. While the fibbers of plastic fibber optic cables are characterized, among other things, by the smallest of bend radii and maximum flexibility, and can also be shortened to any length, the glass fibber optic cables are more chemically resistant and suitable for a higher temperature range.

The wide variety of end sleeve options or individual special sleeves enable virtually any installation possibility. Depending on the application, the fibber optic cable's protective cladding can be made from plastic, metal, or Teflon for exposure to aggressive chemicals.
