Baumer Electric FVE-050-A-1001

Baumer FVE-050-A-1001 is a glass-fiber optic light guide from Baumer’s fiber-optic portfolio, designed to transfer light between a Baumer sensor head and a receiver in through-beam configurations. The 050 in the part number indicates a 50 cm length, aligning with Baumer’s convention that 050 denotes 50 cm fiber length, and the -A-1001 suffix identifies the connector and termination variant for A-coded interfaces. This light guide features a 1.0 mm² fiber cross-section and a threaded M3 interface for secure attachment to compatible Baumer heads. The A-coded version is compatible with Baumer sensor families such as FZAM 18 or FZAM 30, enabling streamlined integration with a range of through-beam or reflective fiber-optic setups. Glass fiber optics generally offer low signal attenuation over longer runs and robust environmental resistance, including exposure to moisture and certain chemicals, making them suitable for industrial environments where plastic fiber may degrade. The 50 cm length provides flexibility in positioning the emitter and receiver to achieve precise alignment while preserving optical integrity. This part belongs to Baumer’s glass-fiber optics family, and is intended to work with compatible Baumer components to extend sensing distance or to fit specific installation constraints without sacrificing signal quality.
