Description
Advanced Sensor with Dual Discrete Outputs and IO-Link
Communication
for Use with
Plastic
and Glass Fiber
Optic
Assemblies
• Response speeds of: 50 µs, 250 µs, 500 µs, 1000 µs and 2000 µs allow for
optimization
for fast responses, long distance
applications,
or noisy
environments
• Outstanding color contrast
sensitivity;
detects 32 levels of gray scale from
black to white
• Visible red and IR beam color models available
• Easy to read dual digital displays show both signal level and threshold
simultaneously
• Lever
action
fiber
clamp provides stable, reliable, and trouble-free
fiber
clamping
• Simple user interface ensures easy sensor set-up and programming through
displays and
switches/buttons
or remote input teach wire
• Expert TEACH and SET methods ensure
optimal
gain and threshold for all
applications,
especially for high speed or low contrast
applications
• User has full control over all
operating
parameters: threshold, Light Operate
or Dark Operate, output
timing
functions,
gain level, and response speed
• Thermally stable electronics shortens start-up
time
and maintains signal
stability during
operation
• ECO (economy) display mode reduces
amplifier
power
consumption
by 25%
• Cross talk avoidance algorithm allows two sensors to operate in close
proximity for many
applications
• Sleek 10 mm wide housing mounts to 35 mm DIN rail
WARNING: Not To Be Used for Personnel
Protection
Never use this device as a sensing device for personnel
protection.
Doing so could lead to serious injury or death.
This device does not include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow its use in personnel safety
applications.
A sensor failure or
malfunction
can cause either an energized or de-energized sensor output
condition.

1.2 Overview
The DF-G2 is an easy-to-use, DIN-rail-mountable
fiber
optic
sensor with best in class response speed and repeatability. It provides high-
performance sensing in high speed or low contrast
applications
where fast response
time
is required.
The sensor’s compact housing has dual digital displays (Red/Green) and a bright output LED for easy programming and status
monitoring during
operation.
The sensor features a push-pull primary output which supports IO-link
communication,
and a
multi-
function
secondary independent PNP output which can be
configured
as an input for advanced sensor
configuration
and remote teach.
The DF-G2 features improved temperature
compensation
compared with previous
fiber
optic
sensors. An accessory clamp is available to
secure a bank of connected sensors together on a DIN rail (see Accessories).
