APPLICATIONS
Detecting a passage of cardboard box
Detecting level in hopper
Upper limit
Lower limit
EQ-34W
Insusceptible to contamination on lens
The xed-focus sensing
keeps the detectability better
than diffuse reective type
sensors even if the lens is
contaminated by dirt, dust,
mist, or smoke under an
unclean environment.
ENVIRONMENTAL RESISTANCE
Waterproof
It has IP67 protection. It can be used in places splashed
with water.
Note: However, take care that if it is exposed to water splashes during
operation, it may detect a water drop itself.
Mechanical 2-turn adjuster with indicator
It features a mechanical 2-turn distance adjuster with an
indicator that shows the set distance at a glance.

Compact
It saves space, since a
miniaturized housing of
W20 × H68 × D40 mm
W0.787 × H2.677 × D1.575
in has been designed
for the adjustable range
reective sensing sensor
even though the adjustable
sensing range is 2 m
6.562 ft long.
MOUNTING / SIZE
Principle of adjustable range reflective sensing with 2-segment photodiode
Normal reective type sensors operate by sensing the variation
in the amount of incident beam.
However, the adjustable range reective sensing type sensor
incorporating the 2-segment photodiode operates by sensing
the variation in the incident beam angle. Thus, the output is
activated according to the distance of the object from the sensor.
This system helps the EQ-30 series in being unaffected by
object color or a background, enabling stable sensing.

Sensing is based on the difference in the incident beam angle
of the dotted line and the solid line in the above gure.
