Fife SE-42R / M280746 Sensor

FIFE SE-42
INFRARED LIGHT SENSOR
The sensor SE - 42 uses modulated infrared light. Its light weight, small size, and insensitivity to ambient
light make it ideal for most web guiding applications.
The SE - 42 Infrared Sensor measures the lateral position of the guided material photoelectrically. The
control range (proportional band) is 17 mm, allowing significant guide point adjustment. The SE - 42 is
often used in pairs for center guiding when web width variations are limited. The SE - 42 sensor can be used
to guide either opaque or transparent material.
Fife offers a wide variety of sensor mountings and positioning assemblies for use with the SE - 42 infrared sensor.
Depending on the application, standard or custom designed mounting brackets can be provided to ensure quick and easy installations.
The SE - 42 can be used with any of our applicable guiding systems or as a retrofit / upgrade for
existing systems.
The SE - 42 can be connected to all available Fife web guide controllers.
