SPECIFICATIONS
Notes: 1) Where measurement conditions have not been specifi ed precisely, the conditions used were an
ambient temperature of +23 °C
+73.4 °F.
2) Model Nos. having the suffi x “-PN” are PNP output type.
3)
Either Light-ON or Dark-ON can be selected by the operation mode switch (located on the receiver).
4) The sensing range and the sensing object of the retrorefl ective type sensor are specifi ed for the
RF-200 refl ector. Further, the sensing range is the possible setting range for the refl ector. The
sensor can detect an object less than 30 mm
1.181 in away. However, if the refl ector is set
100 mm
3.937 in or less away, the sensing object should be opaque.
5) In case of using this product at a sensing range of 50 mm
1.969 in or less, take care that the
sensitivity adjustment range becomes extremely narrow.
6) Make sure to confi rm detection with an actual sensor before use.
