B-LINE E51KT413 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Do I need one or two E51KT413 fiber optic cables for a through-beam photoelectric setup?
Two. The E51 fiber optic cable is a through-beam style assembly, so you order one cable for the source and a second for the detector. Ordering a single cable leaves half the beam path unbuilt.
2) Will the E51KT413 cable couple to any E51 collar-mount sensor?
No. Collar mounting cables and standard mounting cables are not interchangeable, and each has to be coupled to the matching sensor style. The E51KT413 is an unthreaded cable, so confirm your sensor takes the unthreaded mounting style before you order.
3) Can this fiber optic cable be used in a washdown or outdoor location?
Yes. The E51KT413 carries NEMA 3, 3S, 4, 4X, 6, 6P, 12 and 13 ratings plus IP67, which covers hosedown, dust, temporary submersion and corrosive-duty enclosures. The 4X rating is the one that matters for food plants and chemical areas.
4) How long is the B-Line E51KT413 fiber optic cable?
36 feet of fiber per cable. That run length decides whether you can get from the sensing point back to the amplifier location without adding a junction, and since a through-beam pair needs one cable on the source side and one on the detector side, both legs get 36 feet.
5) What temperature range can this fiber optic sensing cable handle?
Minus 40 to 221 degrees F (minus 40 to 105 degrees C). That covers freezer rooms and hot process areas, which is a common reason to run fiber to the sensing point and keep the electronics somewhere milder.
6) Is the E51KT413 a complete photoelectric sensor or just the fiber?
Just the fiber optic cable. It is the light-carrying assembly that couples to an E51 photoelectric sensor head; the sensor or amplifier itself is a separate item. Plan on the sensor plus two of these cables for a through-beam arrangement.
7) What is the E51KT413 fiber cable jacket made of, and will it hold up to flexing?
PVC over a monocoil sheath. The monocoil gives the fiber crush and abrasion protection where it is routed through machinery or conduit runs, and the PVC outer handles the washdown environments the NEMA 4X and IP67 ratings cover.
8) What part number do I order for the B-Line unthreaded 36 foot fiber optic cable?
E51KT413 is the manufacturer part number, in the E51 photoelectric sensor family. It is the unthreaded style at 36 feet.
