Return the Sensor to the previous position so that the distance between the Sensor and sensing object is S. Secure the position of the Sensor to complete the sensitivity adjustment. The green stability indicator must be lit when the sensing object is located within the sensing distance, and the red stability indicator must be lit when the object is completely outside the sensing distance. Note: If the Amplifier Unit malfunctions due to radical ambient temperature changes, further shorten the distance between the Sensor and sensing object to 80% maximum of the set distance. A caution label is provided with the E2C Amplifier Unit. After adjusting the sensitivity, attach the caution label over the adjuster hole of the cover to prevent misoperation of the E2C Amplifier Unit.

When the coating is extremely thin and is not conductive, such as a vacuum deposited film, detection is not possible. Sensing distance X (mm) Thickness of Sensing Object The sensing distance varies greatly depending on the material of the sensing object. Study the engineering data for the influence of sensing object material and size and select a distance with sufficient leeway. • In general, if the Example: E2-X10D@ sensing object is a non14 t=1mm X magnetic metal (for 12 d example, aluminum), the sensing distance Steel 10 decreases.

The model tables indicate whether different frequencies are available. Please refer to the tables. • When Proximity Sensors with the same frequency are mounted together in a line or face-to-face, they must be separated by a minimum distance. For details, refer to Mutual Interference in the Safety Precautions for individual Sensors. Power Reset Time A Sensor is ready for detection within 100 ms after turning ON the power. If the load and Sensor are connected to separate power supplies, design the system so that the Sensor power turns ON first. http://www.ia.omron.com/ (c)Copyright OMRON Corporation 2007 All Rights Reserved. C-3 Proximity Sensors Technical Guide Turning OFF the Power An output pulse may be generated when the power is turned OFF, so design the system so that the load or load line power turns OFF first. Influence of Surrounding Metal Countermeasures for Leakage Current (Examples) AC 2-Wire Sensors Connect a bleeder resistor to bypass the leakage current flowing in the load so that the current flowing through the load is less than the load reset current. The existence of a metal object other than the sensing object near the sensing surface of the Proximity Sensor will affect detection performance, increase the apparent operating distance, degrade temperature characteristics, and cause reset failures. For details, refer to the influence of surrounding metal table in Safety Precautions for individual Sensors. The values in the table are for the nuts provided with the Sensors. Changing the nut material will change the influence of the surrounding metal. Power Transformers Be sure to use an insulated transformer for a DC power supply. Do not use an auto-transformer (single-coil transformer). Precautions for AC 2-Wire/DC 2-Wire Sensors Surge Protection Although the Proximity Sensor has a surge absorption circuit, if there is a device (motor, welder, etc.) that causes large surges near the Proximity Sensor, insert a surge absorber near the source of the surges. Influence of Leakage Current Even when the Proximity Sensor is OFF, a small amount of current runs through the circuit as leakage current. For this reason, a small current may remain in the load (residual voltage in the load) and cause load reset failures. Verify that this voltage is lower than the load reset voltage (the leakage current is less than the load reset current) before using the Sensor. Using an Electronic Device as the Load for an AC 2-Wire Sensor When using an electronic device, such as a Timer, some types of devices use AC half-wave rectification. When a Proximity Sensor is connected to a device using AC half-wave rectification, only AC halfwave power will be supplied to the Sensor. This will cause the Sensor operation to be unstable. Also, do not use a Proximity Sensor to turn the power supply ON and OFF for electronic devices that use DC halfwave rectification. In such a case, use a relay to turn the power supply ON and OFF, and check the system for operating stability after connecting it. Examples of Timers that Use AC Half-wave Rectification Timers: H3Y, H3YN, H3RN, H3CA-8, RD2P, and H3CR (-A, -A8, -AP, -F, -G) http://www.ia.omron.com/ When using an AC 2-Wire Sensor, connect a bleeder resistor so that the Proximity Sensor current is at least 10 mA, and the residual load voltage when the Proximity Sensor is OFF is less than the load reset voltage. Load AC power supply voltage Vs Bleeder resistor R Calculate the bleeder resistance and allowable power using the following equation. Vs R≤ 10 - I P I (kΩ) P> Vs2 (mW) R : Watts of bleeder resistance (the actual number of watts used should be several times this number) : Load current (mA) It is recommend that leeway be included in the actual values used. For 100 VAC, use 10 kΩ or less and 3 W (5 W) or higher, and for 200 VAC, use 20 kΩ or less and 10 W (20 W) or higher. If the effects of heat generation are a problem, use the number of watts in parentheses ( ) or higher. DC 2-Wire Sensors Connect a bleeder resistor to bypass the leakage current flowing in the load, and design the load current so that (leakage current) × (load input impedance) < reset voltage. Load Bleeder resistor R Vs Calculate the bleeder resistance and allowable power using the following equation. Vs R≤ iR - iOFFR (kΩ) P> Vs2 R (mW) P : Watts of bleeder resistance (the actual number of watts used should be several times this number) iR : Leakage current of Proximity Sensor (mA) iOFF : Load reset current (mA) It is recommend that leeway be included in the actual values used. For 12 VDC, use 15 kΩ or less and 450 mW or higher, and for 24 VDC, use 30 kΩ or less and 0.1 W or higher. (c)Copyright OMRON Corporation 2007 All Rights Reserved. C-4 Proximity Sensors Technical Guide Loads with Large Inrush Current Loads, such as lamps or motors, that cause a large inrush current* will weaken or damage the switching element. In this situation, use a relay. • While pressing the Amplifier Unit in the direction of (3), lift the fiber plug in the direction of (4) for easy removal without a screwdriver. * E2K, TL-N@Y: 1 A or higher ●Mounting Mounting the Sensor (4) When mounting a Sensor, do not tap it with a hammer or otherwise subject it to excessive shock. This will weaken water resistance and may damage the Sensor. If the Sensor is being secured with bolts, observe the allowable tightening torque. Some models require the use of toothed washers. For details, refer to the mounting precautions in Precautions for Correct Use in individual product information. DIN Track (3) Set Distance The sensing distance may vary due to fluctuations in temperature and voltage. When mounting the Sensor, it is recommend that installation be based on the set distance. Mounting/Removing Using DIN Track (Example for E2CY) (1)Insert the front of the Sensor into the special Mounting Bracket (included) or DIN Track. (2)Press the rear of the Sensor into the special Mounting Bracket or DIN Track. Rear Front (1) (2) Mounting track (yellow) DIN Track (or Mounting Bracket) • When mounting the side of the Sensor using the special Mounting Bracket, first secure the Amplifier Unit to the special Mounting Bracket, and then mount the special Mounting Bracket with M3 screws and flat washers with a diameter of 6 mm maximum.

C-5 Proximity Sensors Technical Guide ●Wiring Considerations AND/OR Connections for Proximity Sensors Model Type of connection Connection Description Load Keep the number of connected Sensors (N) within the range of the following equation. VS - N × VR ≥ Operating load voltage + - AND (series connection) Vs + It is possible, however, that the indicators may not light correctly and error pulses (of approximately 1 ms) may be generated because the rated power supply voltage and current are not supplied to individual Proximity Sensors. Verify that this is not a problem before operation. - DC 2-Wire Load + Vs OR (parallel connection) N : Number of Sensors that can be connected VR: Residual output voltage of Proximity Sensor VS: Power voltage Keep the number of connected Sensors (N) within the range of the following equation. N × i ≤ Load reset current N: Number of Sensors that can be connected i: Leakage current of Proximity Sensor + Example: When an MY (24-VDC) Relay is used as the load, the maximum number of Sensors that can be connected is 4. The above Proximity Sensors cannot be used in a sereis connection. If needed, connect through relays. Load VS X2 X1 AND (series connection) Load X1 VS X2 Load For the above Proximity Sensors, the voltage VL that can be applied to the load when ON is VL = VS - (Output residual voltage × Number of Sensors), for both 100 VAC and 200 VAC. The load will not operate unless VL is higher than the load operating voltage. This must be verified before use. When using two or more Sensors in series with an AND circuit, the limit is three Sensors. (Be careful of the VS value in the diagram at left.) VL VS VS ≥ 100V AC 2-wire In general it is not possible to use two or more Proximity Sensors in parallel with an OR circuit. (B) OR (parallel connection) A parallel connection can be used if A and B will not be operated simultaneously and there is no need to hold the load. The leakage current, however, will be n times the value for each Sensor and reset failures will frequently occur. ("n" is the number of Proximity Sensors.) Load X1 X2 (A) Load (B) X1 X2 AC power supply voltage Vs (A) If A and B will be operated simultaneously and the load is held, a parallel connection is not possible. If A and B operate simultaneously and the load is held, the voltages of both A and B will fall to about 10 V when A turns ON, and the load current will flow through A causing random operation. When the sensing object approaches B, the voltage of both terminals of B is too low at 10 V and the switching element of B will not operate. When A turns OFF again, the voltages of both A and B rise to the power supply voltage and B is finally able to turn ON. During this period, there are times when A and B both turn OFF (approximately 10 ms) and the loads are momentarily restored. In cases where the load is to be held in this way, use a relay as shown in the diagram at left. Note: When AND/OR connections are used with Proximity Sensors, the effects of erroneous pulses or leakage current may prevent use. Verify that there are no problems before use. http://www.ia.omron.com/ (c)Copyright OMRON Corporation 2007 All Rights Reserved.

Note: When an AND circuit is connected, the operation of Proximity Sensor B causes power to be supplied to Proximity Sensor A, and thus erroneous pulses (approximately 1 ms) may be generated in A when the power is turned ON. For this reason, take care when the load has a high response speed because malfunction may result. - DC 3-wire N : Number of Sensors that can be connected VR: Residual output voltage of Sensor VS: Power supply voltage i : Current consumption of Sensor iL: Load current + OUT OR (parallel connection) Load Vs + OUT For Sensors with a current output, a minimum of three OR connections is possible. Whether or not four or more connections is possible depends on the model. Note: When AND/OR connections are used with Proximity Sensors, the effects of erroneous pulses or leakage current may prevent use. Verify that there are no problems before use. Extending Cable Length The cable of a Built-in Amplifier Sensor can be extended to a maximum length of 200 m with each of the standard cables (excluding some models). For Separate Amplifier Sensors (E2C-EDA, E2C, E2J, E2CY), refer to the specific precautions for individual products. Example of Connection with S3D2 Sensor Controller DC 2-Wire Sensors Using the S3D2 Sensor Controller Operation can be reversed with the signal input switch on the S3D2.
