Industry Leading Two Amplifiers Loaded in a Small Body
Two amplifiers are loaded in a 10 mm-wide body.
Space usability can be approximately doubled.
In addition, approximately 40% of the energy can be
saved.
(compared to the value per channel of the former
model)
Simpler Digital Fiber Sensors
Required performance and functions have been reviewed from basic points to improve high-performance
but hard-to-use digital models. Digital fiber sensors, used in the sense as if using volume type sensors,
are added to the basic functions such as an APC function and digital display.
High-speed and High-resolution Analog Output Supports Wide Variety of Applications
Analog Control Output
The voltage in the range of 1 to 5 V is output according to the incident
level (digital display). Wide variety of applications is possible including
positioning control or difference detection with multiple levels.
Area Output Function Area Judgment Is Possible
Only one sensor is enough for area judgment for height or others that has re-
quired multiple sensors.
Setting two threshold values allows easy output inside and outside range.
Remote Input Function Sensors Controlled from Outside
Remote settings for teaching/power tuning/light OFF are possible with input signals.
The remote input function meets the diversifying demands such as remote settings made for frequent teaching
due to level change corresponding to workpiece change or remote operation check of sensors before operation.
Equipped with an Industry's First ATC Function that Resolves Problems
at Manufacturing Sites
OMRON’s unique algorism is equipped to
distinguish dust or dirt and the change of
workpieces. Automatic correction of threshold
values by sensors in accordance with changes
prevents malfunctions and improves the operating
rates of machines. The ATC function is especially
effective for the applications that require high-
resolution detection.
