Performance and Environmental Resistance

• The FS-N43P covers eight response modes from 23 µs to 64 ms for speed or stability.
• Fast S-HSPD mode suits high-speed detection, while TERA mode smooths noisy signals.
• The 660 nm red LED gives visible spot alignment and consistent sensitivity across targets.
• Open-collector outputs handle 30 V and 100 mA per channel for direct PLC or relay loads.
• Residual voltage stays low at 1.6 V at 10 mA and 2.2 V up to 100 mA.
• The amplifier runs from 10 to 30 VDC with 10% ripple tolerance for industrial supplies.
• Power draw stays under 990 mW, and ECO modes cut consumption to 920 mW or 830 mW.
• Operating range of -20 to +55 °C supports cold storage and warm cabinets without freezing.
• Expansion derates temperature, so plan spacing when you stack many FS-N40 units.
• No built-in communication ports keep wiring simple and reduce interference paths.

Installation Guide

• Mount the FS-N43P on a DIN rail or panel with the Keyence FS-N40 mounting bracket.
• Connect 10 to 30 VDC to the power terminals and observe the polarity markings.
• Wire each PNP output to the PLC input or load, keeping current below 100 mA per output.
• Connect the external input for bank switching or timing control with 2 ms ON pulses.
• Attach the fiber cable to the amplifier port and lock the connector until it clicks.
• Power on and use the OLED display to set response mode, threshold, and output logic.
• Link expansion units with the side connector, and keep total units at 16 or fewer.
• Verify detection with a test target, then lock the panel keys to prevent accidental changes.
• Route signal cables away from motor drives to reduce electrical noise pickup.
