October 2024 Sensors & Transducers


The DFS 21 dual channel digital fibre-optic sensor from Vepac Electronics is designed to provide reliable detection using plastic fibre-optic light guides. The slimline housing, with protective lid, will fit in a variety of small spaces. The DFS 21 is adjusted by a single push of a button, there is no guesswork on the part of the operator. The sensor default settings will work for most applications. It is as simple or as complicated as you would like. If your application is a bit more complex, it can be adjusted in many configurations.

Features of the DFS 21 include:

• Intuitive numerical/percentage diagnostic OLED display.

• Attractive 10 mm wide housing.

• Low power and wide operating voltage.

• Advanced remote programming.

• Six AUTOSET modes including window.

• Rejection of crosstalk between two sensors without a wire.

• Programmable output/input configurations.
