Fiber length change

Extension up to 30 m 98.425 ft in units of 1 m 3.281 ft is possible, with the actual extension length varying depending on the model.
Refer to Applicable models.

(Note) : Note that the model number differs from previous models with changed lengths.

Sleeve length change

Extension is possible up to 120 mm 4.724 in in units of 10 mm 0.394 in.
Applicable models are sleeve extension-type models indicated by in the table on the Applicable models.

(Note) : Note that the model number differs from previous models with changed lengths.

Fiber cable length and sensing range damping ratio characteristics

Note that the longer the fiber cable length, the shorter the sensing range.

Typical example
Bending radius R4 mm/R2 mm
(Tough fiber)

Typical example
Bending radius R1 mm
(Sharp bending fiberFT-□W/FD-□W)

(Note)：

Because infrared types are easily affected by humidity, please ask assistance when using them in a humid environment or in an environment with varying humidity.

Extended protective tube

The chemical-resistant cover and stainless jacket can be extended in accordance with the fiber cable length.
Applicable models are indicated in the table as follows.

Models which can have extended sleeve : FT-31S, FT-42S
Models which can have extended protective tube (fluorine resin) : FT-F93, FT-HL80Y, FT-L80Y, FT-V80Y

Note 1:Note that the sensing range of the free-cut type fiber may be reduced by 20% max. depending upon how the fiber is cut.

Note 2:The fiber cable length practically limits the sensing range.

Note 3:Applicable sleeve lengh is from 10 to 120 mm 0.394 to 4.724 in and in units of 10 mm 0.394 in.

Note 4:Applicable protective lengh is up to 10 m 32.808 ft and in units of 0.5 m 1.640 ft.

Note 5:Fiber length (fixed-length) for heat-resistant fiber side. Fiber length for ordinary temperature side is 2 m 6.562 ft (free-cut).

Note 6:The allowable cutting range is 500 mm 19.685 in from the end that the amplifier inserted.
