BF5 Series Fiber Optic Amplifiers from Autonics

The BF5 series fiber optic amplifiers are available in single and dual display models. The units feature 5 different response speed settings, for flexible and reliable detection of fast moving targets or small objects. With integrated mutual interference prevention, reliable detection is possible with multiple units (up to 8 units) with connection using side connectors. Other features include saturation prevention function, inverted display, and simple sensitivity adjustment settings. Red, green, and blue LED light source models are available for diverse applications.

Dual Digital Display
With the dual digital display screen, users can easily identify the present value (PV) and set value (SV)


High-Speed Response Rate of 50㎲ in Ultra-Fast Mode
The sensors feature 5 different response speeds : Ultra-fast mode (50㎲), fast mode (150㎲), standard mode (500㎲), long-distance mode (4ms), ultra-long-distance mode (10ms)


Saturation Prevention Function
When the detection transparent objects or if the target moves out of position, the received light intensity may increase. The saturation prevention function prevents errors from light saturation by adjusting to the difference in the received light.


Red, Green, Blue LED Light Sources Available
Depending on the color of the target object or ambient lighting conditions, users can choose between red, green, and blue LED light source models for precise and accurate detection



Durable and Reliable
Long term stability without diode deterioration and minimal influence from temperature changes


Various Sensitivity Setting Modes
Depending on the environment, users can choose between auto-tuning, one-point teaching (maximum sensitivity), two-point teaching, and position teaching modes.

Simple Sensitivity Adjustment

Mutual Interference Prevention and auto Channel Setting
Mutual interference prevention allows adjacent installation (up to 8 units) using side connectors. When power is supplied, the connected units are automatically assigned to different channels.

Communication with PCs, PLCs with BFC Communication Converters
The BFC series communication converters can be connected to the BF5 series amplifiers with the side connectors. The communication converters allow users to remotely monitor and configure parameters from external devices such as PCs or PLCs.
