Question
What are sensing position characteristics (for slot-type models) of
Photomicrosensors Used for Industrial Equipment?
Answer
The sensing position characteristics measure the point where the
Photomicrosensor turns ON when an opaque workpiece is inserted from the
direction shown in the following figures.
With EE-SX77/87 Photomicrosensors,
for example, the horizontal sensing position is 1.9 mm from the side of
the Sensor (the Y portion in the following figures), and the vertical
sensing position is 2.9 mm from the top of the Sensor (the Z portion in
the following figures).
These values, however, are only typical examples. The sensing position
depends on variations in the light-emitting and light-receiving elements,
temperature characteristics, and degraded service life of the
light-receiving element.
