Sensor Head Connector

Sensor Head Connector

Fiber Protection connectors can be used to connect many styles of the following:

  • Proximity switches
  • Photoelectric switches
  • Heat-proof temperature sensors

 

There are basically three methods for attaching the tubes:

  • Machine-screwed
  • Pin-locked
  • Adhesive


We also design and manufacture custom-made connectors upon request.

1. Screw-type:

Secured by pins after being screwed onto tube

Features:

  • For termination of tube to the sensor head
  • Prevents damage to optical fibers and cables
  • Easy assembly and removal of sensor from tube
  • Resists high-heat environments

 

Applications:

  • Sensors and cable protection in measurement devices, sensors, robotics, automation equipment and arcade game machines

Notes:

  1. KS8NS-M18 and KS8NS-M30 have a window for the function indicator light

Material:

  • Nickel plated on brass

Pack: 30 pieces
