Keyence FS-V33CP Fiber Amplifier M8 PNP Main Unit

Product Introduction

The FS-V33CP from Keyence is a fiber amplifier main unit. It belongs to the FS series. This model uses an M8 connector and provides PNP output. Also, it carries two control outputs. The unit works as a main amplifier, not an expansion unit.

This amplifier uses a red 4-element LED light source. The wavelength measures 640 nm. Furthermore, the response time ranges from 33 µs in HIGH SPEED mode to 16 ms in MEGA TURBO mode. Users can select LIGHT-ON or DARK-ON operation with a switch.

Technical Specifications

First, the FS-V33CP offers six response modes. HIGH SPEED mode reaches 33 µs. FINE mode reaches 250 µs. TURBO mode reaches 500 µs. SUPER TURBO reaches 1 ms. ULTRA TURBO reaches 4 ms. MEGA TURBO reaches 16 ms.

Next, the display system uses dual 7-segment LEDs. The preset value shows on a 4-digit green LED. The current value shows on a 4-digit red LED. The current value range spans 0 to 64,512. Excess gain spans 0P to 999P. Additionally, a bar LED monitor shows excess gain in 7 steps. A hold function displays peak and bottom values.

Output and Timing Functions

The FS-V33CP provides two PNP open-collector outputs. These outputs handle 24 V and 100 mA max on the main unit. When expansion units connect, the limit drops to 20 mA max. Residual voltage stays at 1 V max.

Moreover, the timer function offers several modes. Options include OFF-delay, ON-delay, and one-shot timers. Users can also combine ON-delay with OFF-delay. Timer duration ranges from 0.1 ms to 9,999 ms. The maximum error against the setting value is ±10%.

Electrical and Environmental Parameters

The FS-V33CP runs on 12 to 24 VDC ±10%. Ripple stays at 10% peak-to-peak or less. Normal power consumption reaches 830 mW max. In power saving mode, it drops to 660 mW max. At 24 V, normal current draw is 35 mA max.

The amplifier resists ambient light well. It handles incandescent light up to 20,000 lux. It also handles sunlight up to 30,000 lux. The operating temperature ranges from -10 to +55 °C. Humidity ranges from 35 to 85% RH without condensation. Vibration resistance covers 10 to 55 Hz. Shock resistance reaches 500 m/s2.

Installation and Expansion

First, mount the FS-V33CP on a DIN rail or panel. Next, connect the fiber unit to the amplifier. Then, plug the M8 connector into the port. After that, set the output mode to LIGHT-ON or DARK-ON.

Furthermore, users can connect up to 16 expansion units. This creates a total of 17 units. However, a 2-output type counts as two units. Besides, interference prevention limits depend on the response mode. HIGH SPEED allows 0 units. FINE allows 4 units. TURBO and slower modes allow 8 units. The case uses polycarbonate material. The unit weighs about 22 g.
