Allows for more spacious design with
less risk of contact
With previous models, to avoid false detections, you were forced to adopt sensor
installation designs that risked contact. The E2E NEXT PREMIUM Proximity Sensor can
detect accurately from a greater distance, which means you can adopt designs with
more space and less risk of contact.
Proximity sensors with longer sensing distance require increased sensitivity. However, with the increased
sensitivity, temperature changes will have bigger inuence in sensing distance, and dierences between
individual sensors will be bigger. E2E NEXT Proximity Sensors (3-wire models) solve these issues by newly
implementing Thermal Distance Control 2, a technology to enable extended sensing ranges. It enables
in-line measurements of each sensor’s temperature characteristics, using multiple temperature points, in
IoT-enabled production processes. The optimal correction values are then calculated based on our unique
algorithm. The values are written into the
analog digital hybrid IC (PROX3) for shipping
to minimize dierences between sensors
and the inuence of temperature changes
that may occur in the customer’s environ-
ments.

Less false detection even when a stationary gets away from the sensor due to
equipment vibration
The equipment vibration widens the
distance between a stationary and a sensor
to cause false detection and facility stoppages.
Long-distance detection enhances the degree
of the detection margin.
Stable detection
even when a stationary gets away.
