EQ-500
ADJUSTABLE RANGE REFLECTIVE
PHOTOELECTRIC SENSOR
Multi-voltage
Because it can function with 24 to 240 V AC and 12 to 240 V
DC, almost any power supply anywhere in the world will do.
Introducing the new DC-voltage type
equipped with BGS / FGS function
We've added a DC-voltage type with NPN and PNP
transistor outputs all in one sensor. Its BGS / FGS function
controls any background effects for more stable sensing.
Refer to p.196 for the BGS / FGS functions.

SERIES
Not affected by background objects
EQ50
Because the sensor doesn't detect objects outside the preset
sensing field by using the 2-segment photodiode adjustable
range system, it will not malfunction even if someone walks
behind the sensing object or machines or conveyors are in
the background.
EQ51
Impervious to variations color or angle
Due to its advanced optical system, the sensor is not affected
by variations in the object's angle or gloss compared to
conventional sensors.
Moreover, as the difference in sensing range between black
and white varies by only approx. 5 % (Note), sensing can be
performed at a somewhat constant distance even if the
sensing object is black or white.

    PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE Wiring Make sure that the power supply is off while wiring. Check all wiring before applying power since incorrect wiring may damage the internal circuit. Also, carefully tighten the terminal screws so that the wires of adjacent terminals do not touch. The mounting hole for the terminal cover fixing screws inclines 70 degrees to the terminal cover, as shown in the figure below.
