Cautions WARNING ● Never use this product as a sensing device for personnel protection. ● In case of using devices for personnel protection, use products which meet laws and standards, such as OSHA, ANSI or IEC etc., for personnel protection applicable in each region or country.
Mounting 3-1 Mounting the sensor ● Mount the sensor on a mounting plate 3mm or less thick and use the enclosed nut and toothed lock washer for mounting. ● When the nut is tightened, hold the the sensor with hand or a spanner etc. and the tight- ening torque should be 0.6N·m or less.
3-2 Installation interval ● This product does not incorporate auto interference prevention function. In case aligning 2 of this sensors closely, follow diagrams below. (typical) ● Find out the operating point ℓ1 on the parallel deviation diagram for the setting distance L. Separate sensors by 2 ×...

Adjustment 5-1 Beam alignment (Thru-beam type EX-31□ / EX-33□) Thru-beam type EX-31□ 1. Place the emitter and the receiver face to face along Sensing object a straight line, move the emitter in the up, down, left and right directions, in order to determine the range of the light received condition with the help of the Operation indicator...
5-2 Sensitivity adjustment (Thru-beam type EX-33□, Diffuse reflective type EX-32□) Thru-beam type EX-33□ ● When using EX-33□, turn the sensitivity adjuster fully clockwise to the MAX. position. However, if the beam penetrates a sensing object, adjust the sensitivity as follows. Step Sensitivity 1.

Diffuse reflective type EX-32□ Step Sensitivity 1. Turn the sensitivity adjuster fully counterclockwise to the adjuster minimum sensitivity position 2. In the light received condition, turn the sensitivity adjust- Operation indicator er slowly clockwise and confirm the point A where the (Orange) sensor enters the “Light”...
Stability Indicator ● The stability indicator (green) lights up when the incident light intensity has sufficient margin with respect to the operation level. Incident light intensity level is such that the stability indicator light up, stable sensing can be done without the light received operation and the light interrupted operation being af- fected by a change in ambient temperature or supply voltage.
Option 7-1 Beam Slit Mask (Thru-beam type EX-31□ / EX-33□) ● Apply the optional slit mask (OS-EX30-1) when detecting small objects or for increasing the accuracy of sensing position. However, the sensing range is reduced when the slit mask is mounted. Model No.
Notes: 1) The model No. with suffix “P” shown on the label affixed to the thru-beam type sensor is emitter. “D” shown on the label is receiver. (e.g.) Emitter of EX-31A: EX-31P, Receiver of EX-31A: EX-31AD 5m cable length type is also available for NPN output type (excluding EX-33□) When ordering this type, suffix “-C5”...
