Compact size
The NX5 series can operate at 24 to 240 V AC or 12 to
240 V DC, which is suitable for supply voltages around
the world.
Despite of being multi-voltage, it has a depth of just 35 mm 1.378 in.

It has an IP66 protection. Moderate dust or water
splashes will not affect the sensor.
The hermetically sealed output relay significantly
increases its reliability.

FUNCTIONS / MOUNTING
Easy alignment
Interference prevention
The 10 m 32.808 ft thru-beam type sensor and the 5 m
16.404 ft retroreflective type sensor incorporate a red
LED beam source. Beam alignment can be attained by
checking the emitted beam visually.
Two sensors can operate normally even if mounted
close together.

3) Light-ON type sensor (model No. with suffix “A”) and Dark-ON type
sensor (model No. with suffix “B”) are available in the NX5 series.
For the following models, in case of power off, the output relay
condition is the same as when an object is detected.
(In case of power supply line disconnection, the output operation
is the same as when an object is detected.)

As the sensing object size becomes smaller
than the standard size (white non-glossy paper
200 × 200 mm 7.874 × 7.874 in), the sensing
range shortens, as shown in the left graph.

• Do not use during the initial transient time (50 ms) after
the power supply is switched on.
• Although the protection degree is specified for the sensor
including the cable, the cable end is not waterproof, and
is not covered by the protection specified. Hence, make
sure that water does not seep in from the cable end.

• Use the interference prevention filters (optional) when
two units of thru-beam type sensors are mounted close
together. However, take note that the sensing range will
become short.
• There are 2 types of interference prevention filters. Install
PF-NX5-H (Horizontal, Light brown) for 1 set, and install
PF-NX5-V (Vertical, Silver color) for the other set.
