Fiber Optic Microswitch System

MR386 Series FO Microswitch Sensors and Controllers

The Micronor FO Microswitch System can be deployed where electromagnetic immunity is required, for installation in hazardous areas, as well as where long-distance E-Stop links are required.

  • Microswitch links can be short or long, to 18 km
  • Multiple Microswitches, E-Stops and Key Switches can be daisy chained
  • Multiple Controllers and Optical Splitters can be employed to extend signaling to different locations
  • Many topologies can be accommodated, contact Sales to discuss your requirements.

Distance versus System Loss Budget

Fiber type, link lengths, # of Microswitches and other Sensors, and # of interconnections cannot exceed optical loss budget of Controller. Consult Application Note AN118, Determining System Loss Budget, for more information.

For example:

  • A single MR386 FO Microswitch can be directly connected to one remote MR380 DIN controller (23dB) up to 17 km away.
  • A MR387 E-Stop and MR386 Microswitch can be connected in series to a remote MR380 DIN Controller, up to 6.5 km away.
  • Two DIN Controllers can be used to extend the reach of one Electromechanical E-Stop to 30 km
  • Many other sensors configurations are possible, only limited by the overall Optical Loss Budget of the application.
