Specifications
■
Sensor head
* Note that when using the sensor underwater, the detection distance becomes
extremely short.
■
Amplifier
* 1
When the sensor head cable is 3 m or longer, use a power supply voltage of 24 V DC.
* 2
When using several units in close proximity.
2 to 4 units : 55°C
5+ units
: 45°C
Hints On Correct Use
• Do not wire the amplifier line along with power lines or high-tension lines,
• otherwise the sensor may malfunction or receive damage due to noise.
• When using a commercially available switching regulator, ground the frame
ground terminal and ground terminal.
• Do not use the PX series outdoors, or in a place where extraneous light can enter
the light receiving surface directly.
• Due to the individual dispersion of characteristics and the difference in sensor
head model, the maximum sensing distance or displayed value of all the units are
not the same.
• Changing the cable layout can change the light intensity slightly. Reset the
sensitivity when changing the layout.
• Even when using the interference prevention function, devices installed and
connected to the sensor may have a slight effect on detection. In these cases,
fine-adjust the sensitivity (raise the value).
• Infrared light used for communicating with the amplifier unit emits from the back
of the amplifier unit. Make sure that the receiving head is not used too close to the
amplifier unit.
• Do not use the sensor while it is submerged in oil.
• Performance may be lowered depending on the type of oil.
Precautions on UL Certificate
The PX series complies with the following UL and CSA standards. The PX series
has obtained UL and C-UL certificate.
• Applicable standard
UL508 Industrial Control Equipment
CAN/CSA C22.2 No.14-M05 Industrial Control Equipment
• UL File No. E301717
• UL category: NRKH, NRKH7
• Enclosure Type 1 (according to UL50)
■
Precautions
• The PX series must be supplied from the power source defined as Class 2
according to NFPA70 (NEC: National Electrical Code).
• The UL certificate for the PX series is for the sensor head unit and the amplifier
unit used in combination. The PX-H series (the sensor head unit) must be used
together with the PX-10 series (amplifier unit) exclusively.
