Fiber amplifier
E3X-DAC-S
Fiber amplifier
E3X-DAC-S colour (RGB) digital fiber
amplifier
The E3X-DAC-S detects the colour or returned light intensity of a mark or object and
compares it with a stored RGB ratio or intensity value. The RGB ratio or contrast dif-
ference allows the stable detection of differently coloured, black, grey or white marks
or objects.
• White LED for colour independence
• Fast response time of min. 60
μs
• Timer function for variable ON or OFF delay up to 5 s
• Remote teaching or easy one-button teaching
