High-Reliability Optical Receiver for Industrial Automation
The HOKUYO BRC-G2AR is a high-performance optical receiver engineered to deliver seamless communication in demanding industrial environments. Designed for compatibility with HOKUYO’s BRC-G series transmitters, this 4-point receiver utilizes FSK (Frequency Shift Keying) modulation and advanced noise-filtering algorithms to ensure stable data transmission even in high-interference settings . With a wide reception angle of 50° vertically and 90° horizontally, it offers flexible installation options for multi-machine coordination in automotive assembly lines, semiconductor fabrication, and logistics hubs. The unit operates on a 24V DC power supply and features photo-coupler isolated outputs with open-collector configuration, providing reliable control signals for PLCs, robotic arms, and conveyor systems. Encased in an IP66-rated ABS resin housing, the BRC-G2AR withstands dust, water splashes, and extreme temperatures (-10°C to +50°C), ensuring longevity in harsh industrial conditions .
Flexible Multi-Channel Communication with Precision Control
Featuring a modular design, the BRC-G2AR supports up to 999 unique F-number codes, allowing a single receiver to communicate with multiple transmitters across different operational zones. This scalability reduces equipment redundancy and streamlines workflow management, particularly in large-scale manufacturing facilities. The receiver’s quick-response circuitry enables instantaneous signal processing, with a strobe output that confirms data reception in real-time. Unlike traditional RF-based systems, the BRC-G2AR avoids regulatory restrictions and electromagnetic interference, making it ideal for global deployments . Its compatibility with HOKUYO’s BRC-G24T transmitter (10-meter range) and BRC-G44T transmitter (20-meter range) ensures seamless integration into existing automation infrastructure, minimizing downtime during upgrades . For maintenance teams, the unit’s plug-and-play connectors and intuitive F-number registration via the transmitter simplify setup and troubleshooting.
User-Centric Design for Enhanced Productivity
The BRC-G2AR prioritizes ease of use without compromising performance. Its compact dimensions (170mm x 60mm x 30mm) and lightweight design (120g) facilitate discreet installation in confined spaces, while the built-in status LEDs provide clear visual feedback on signal strength and power status. The receiver’s long-term reliability is further enhanced by its low-power standby mode, which extends operational life when paired with HOKUYO’s alkaline battery-powered transmitters. Compared to competitors like Keyence’s SR-1000 or Sick’s ODS60, the BRC-G2AR offers superior resistance to ambient light interference (up to 10,000 lux) and a wider temperature operating range, making it suitable for outdoor or high-heat environments . Whether used in CNC machining centers, packaging lines, or warehouse automation, the BRC-G2AR empowers industries to achieve precise, efficient control while maintaining compliance with international safety standards.
