Features

E3X-DA-N

Reducing power line wiring meaning
space is saved. New design for easier
maintenance.

The connector type that uses the wire-saving connector sup­plies power to the single-conductor slave connectors via the
three-conductor master connector. Hence, the following three
has been made possible.

1. Wiring is much simpler.

2. Relay connectors are not required meaning that space is used
more efficiently and costs are reduced.

3. Simple inventory control because of no differentiation between
master and slave in the amplifier section.

New Connector Design

Up to 16 Amplifiers
can be connected together.

Super digital display by use of the Auto
Power Control (APC) circuit

The incident level of LEDs used in sensors is prone to deteriorate
with time and as a result, detection becomes unstable.
Using the APC (auto power control) circuit for the first time as the
fiber sensor, the E3X-DA-N series has no digital value variations,
realizing severe detection.
This makes the E3X-DA-N ideal for applications where a high de­gree of sensitivity is required, such as detecting crystal glass.

Power consumption reduced by 70%.

1800mW

600mW

Power consumption has been
reduced up to about 70%
from 1800 mW to 600 mW. (If
the digital display is off)

The digital display can be changed to full­OFF or Dark-ON during RUN.

Power consumption can be reduced by setting the display to Full­OFF/Dark-ON in applications where the digital display is rarely
looked at during RUN.
(Can be set at the Mobile Console only)

This ECO label is indicated on
products that meet the environmental
standards established by OMRON.

Beeper-sized, new-generation Mobile Console
unleashing the power of the ultimate fiber amplifier

Remote setting/adjustment function

Setting/teaching/fine adjustment can
be made at the fiber front-end.

The Mobile Console has enabled
setting and teaching at the fiber
front-end, which could only be
made at the amplifier. You can
perform major adjustments while
looking at the work position, etc.

Incident level and threshold can be displayed simultaneously.

New

Simultaneous turning possible using group teaching.

While teaching had to be
performed for each Amplifier
separately, it can now be
performed for several Ampli­fiers at once using the Mo­bile Console.

Differences in incident light avoided by group zero-reset.

The incident levels of sever­al amplifiers can be batch­reset to zero by the group
zero-reset. This feature is
useful for reducing differenc­es between the amplifiers.
