Baumer FZAM 18P1155 Fiber Optic Sensor
Baumer FZAM 18P1155 Fiber Optic Sensor uses an intensity-difference sensing principle with a stated sensing distance of 60 mm and an actual range of 310 mm. Its pulsed infrared diode operates at 880 nm, while a yellow LED provides visual indication. Response time is specified at less than 0.5 ms, supporting quick switching requirements. The sensor operates from 10 to 30 VDC with maximum current consumption of 45 mA and provides a PNP output rated up to 200 mA in light-operate mode. Its cylindrical threaded body measures 18 mm in diameter and 50 mm in length and uses nickel-plated brass with polycarbonate. A 3-pin, 2 m cable provides connection. The model belongs to the Baumer Fiber Optic Sensor range from Baumer Sensors.

The Baumer FZAM 18P1155 Fiber Optic Sensor uses intensity-difference sensing with an actual range of 310 mm and a stated sensing distance of 60 mm. Its pulsed infrared diode operates at 880 nm, while a yellow LED provides visible operating indication. Response time is specified at less than 0.5 ms, supporting applications that require fast output changes. The sensor operates from 10 to 30 VDC with maximum current consumption of 45 mA. Its PNP output supports a maximum current of 200 mA and operates in light-operate mode. The cylindrical threaded housing measures 18 mm in diameter and 50 mm in length and uses nickel-plated brass with polycarbonate components.
For a Baumer PNP fiber optic sensor requiring intensity-difference sensing and quick switching, the corresponding model is the FZAM 18P1155. A 3-pin cable with a 2 m length provides the electrical connection. Operating temperature extends from -25 to +55°C, while IP67 protection is specified for the enclosure. This configuration also suits searches for a Baumer 60 mm fiber optic sensor and Baumer fast response PNP sensor. Its sub-0.5 ms response, 200 mA output capability, and compact threaded body distinguish it where fast switching and fixed cable installation are required.
