Industrial SEID BF-A-36TP Cable Fiber Optic Sensor

Description:

The TRI-TRONICS Model SEID Videojet Fiber Optic Sensor with BF-A-36TP Cable is used in industrial photoelectric sensing systems to detect the presence or absence of objects through a remote bifurcated glass fiber optic light guide. Commonly installed on Videojet coding and marking systems, packaging machinery, conveyor systems, labeling equipment, and automated production lines where precise product detection is required. Maintenance teams and system integrators use this fiber optic sensor for machine repairs, sensor replacement, automation upgrades, and preventive maintenance.

Applications:

The TRI-TRONICS Model SEID Videojet Fiber Optic Sensor with BF-A-36TP Cable is commonly used on Videojet printers, packaging equipment, bottling lines, food processing systems, and material handling applications. The SEID SMARTEYE sensor paired with the BF-A-36TP bifurcated glass fiber optic cable provides dependable non-contact sensing for product detection, positioning, and print trigger applications in demanding industrial environments.
