3. Mounting
The CS24D-00 and -01
should be mounted such
that the bottom is 0.75 to
0.88 inches from the
average target object
position (standoff
distance). This will allow
for sensor to object
variation of ±1/8 inch.
The longer standoff
CS24D-02 and -03 should
be mounted such that the
bottom is 1.75 to 2.00
inches from the average
target object position for a
standoff tolerance of ±1/4.
(See Specifications for
standoff and range for
other models).
An additional 3.50”
(90mm) of clearance
should be allowed above
the sensor for standard
cables, with optional right-
angle connectors, this can
be reduced to 1.75”
(45mm).
The CS24D color sensors
can be mounted in any
position—if mounted such
that the bottom window is
facing up, care should be
taken such that excessive
amounts of dirt will not
accumulate.
The CS24D is not affected
by normal room lighting,
however very strong light
(e.g. sunlight) should be
kept out of the sensing

area. The sensing area includes not only the area that is directly read by the sensor (0.27 x 0.32” for the
CS24D-00), but also the immediate surrounding surfaces since light will reflect into the direct sensing
area.
If it is possible that the CS24D could be bumped hard enough to cause damage, it should be mounted
such that it is protected. To minimize electrical noise, the CS24D enclosure should be grounded.
