Notes: 1

Model Nos. having the suffix ‘-PN’ are PNP output type. The retroreflective type having the suffix ‘-Y’ at the end of the model No. does not have the reflector RF-200 enclosed with it.

)

Either Light-ON or Dark-ON can be selected by the operation mode switch (located on the receiver).

Notes: 2

)

The sensing range and the sensing object of the retroreflective type sensor are specified for the RF-200 reflector.

Notes: 3

Further, the sensing range is the possible setting range for the reflector. The sensor can detect an object less than 30mm away. However, if the reflector is set 100mm or less away, the sensing object should be opaque.

)

In case of using this product at a sensing range of 50mm or less, take care that the sensitivity adjustment range

Notes: 4

becomes extremely narrow.

EX-24A(-PN) and EX-24B(-PN) are not

incorporated with a sensitivity adjuster. If there is a reflective object (conveyor, etc.) in the background, since it may affect the sensing, use these models by keeping enough distance from the reflective object. If a reflective object is present in the background, the sensing of EX-28A(-PN) and

EX-28B(-PN) may be affected. When setting

the sensor, make sure to confirm that the reflective object has no effect. In case the reflective object affects the sensing, take measures such as removing the reflective object or coloring it in black, etc. If sensors are mounted close together and the ambient temperature is near the maximum rated value, provide for enough heat radiation/ ventilation. Make sure to carry out the wiring in the power supply off condition. Take care that wrong wiring will damage the sensor. Verify that the supply voltage variation is within the rating. If power is supplied from a commercial switching

In case noise generating equipment (switching regulator, inverter motor, etc.) is used in the vicinity of this product, connect the frame ground (F.G.) terminal of the equipment to an actual ground. Do not use during the initial transient time (50ms) after the power supply is switched on. Extension up to total 50m (thru-beam type: both emitter and receiver) is possible with

0.3mm2, or more, cable. Make sure that stress is not applied directly to the sensor cable joint. Do not run the wires together with highvoltage lines or power lines or put them in the same raceway. This can cause malfunction due to induction. Take care that the sensor is not directly exposed to fluorescent light from a rapid-starter lamp or a high frequency lighting device, as it may affect the sensing performance. Avoid dust, dirt and steam. Take care that the sensor does not come in direct contact with water, oil, grease, or

organic solvents, such as, thinner, etc. regulator, ensure that the frame ground (F.G) terminal of the power supply is connected to an actual ground.

Operation mode switch [EX-23 (-PN) only]

Switch position Description

Light-ON mode is obtained when the operation mode switch (located on the receiver) is turned fully clockwise (L side).

Dark-ON mode is obtained when the operation mode switch (located on the receiver) is turned fully counterclockwise (D side).

Note: Operation mode switch should be turned fully till it stops.

Light beam alignment

Thru-beam type sensor

In case of EX-23(-PN), set the operation mode switch to the Light-ON mode position (L side).

Placing the emitter and the receiver face to face along a straight line, move the emitter in the up, down, left and right directions, in order to determine the range

of the light received condition with the help of the operation indicator. Then, set the emitter at the center of this range.

Receiver

Similarly, adjust for up, down, left and right angular movement of the emitter.

Further, perform the angular adjustment for the receiver also.

Check that the stability indicator lights up. In case of EX-23 (-PN), choose the operation

mode, Light-ON or Dark-ON, as per your requirement, with the operation mode switch.

Retroreflective type sensor

Turn the sensitivity adjuster fully clockwise to the maximum sensitivity position (MAX).

In the dark condition, turn the sensitivity adjuster further clockwise until the sensor enters the ‘Light’ state operation and then bring it back to confirm point where the

sensor just returns to the ‘Dark’ state operation.

If the sensor does not enter the ‘LIght’ state operation even when the sensitivity adjuster is turned fully clockwise, this

extreme position is point .

The position at the middle of points and

is the optimum sensing position.

Use the accessory adjusting screwdriver to turn the adjuster slowly. Turning with excessive strength will damage the adjuster. In case of using EX-22 (-PN) at a sensing range of 50mm or less, take care that the sensitivity adjustment range becomes extremely narrow.
