The following charts list all the fiber sizes that can be used with these sensors. Typical
fiber models (one for each size and type) are indicated, along with the maximum
range for each (expect less range for fiber assemblies with angled sensing ends). For
a complete selection of fibers in these sizes and for more information see your
current Banner Photoelectric Sensors Catalog.
