Baumer FZAM 18P1150 Fiber Optic Sensor
Baumer FZAM 18P1150 Fiber Optic Sensor provides a stated sensing distance of 150 mm and an actual range of up to 800 mm. A pulsed infrared diode operating at 880 nm serves as the light source, while the yellow LED provides visual indication. The sensor operates from 10 to 30 VDC with maximum current consumption of 45 mA and uses light-operate switching with the NPN output specified in the supplied data. Output current is rated up to 200 mA. Its cylindrical threaded housing measures 18 mm in diameter and 50 mm in length and uses nickel-plated brass with polycarbonate. A 3-pin, 2 m cable provides the electrical connection. The FZAM 18P1150 is available within the Baumer Fiber Optic Sensor category from Baumer Sensors.

The Baumer FZAM 18P1150 Fiber Optic Sensor provides an actual sensing range of up to 800 mm with a stated sensing distance of 150 mm. A pulsed infrared diode operating at 880 nm supplies the optical source, while a yellow LED provides visual operating indication. Response time is specified at less than 1 ms. The sensor operates from a 10 to 30 VDC power supply and consumes up to 45 mA. The supplied specification identifies an NPN output supporting up to 200 mA together with light-operate switching. Its cylindrical threaded body measures 18 mm in diameter and 50 mm in length and is constructed from nickel-plated brass with polycarbonate components.
For a Baumer cable type fiber optic sensor requiring a 150 mm stated sensing distance, the corresponding model is the FZAM 18P1150. A 3-pin cable with a 2 m length provides the electrical connection, supporting direct wiring to compatible control equipment. Operating temperature is specified from -25 to +55°C, while IP67 protection is stated for the enclosure. The source specifically lists NPN output for this model, so that specification has been retained without changing it based on the model name. The configuration also matches searches for a Baumer 2 m cable sensor and Baumer 880 nm fiber optic sensor.
