Photoelectric Sensors Technical Guide
● Adjustments
Optical Axis Adjustment
Move the Photoelectric Sensor both vertically and horizontally and set
it in the center of the range in which the operation indicator is lit or not
lit. For the E3S-C, the optical axis and the mechanical axis are the
same, so the optical axis can be easily adjusted by aligning the
mechanical axis.
Receiver
Emitter
Optical axis:
The axis from the center of the lens to the center of
the beam for the Emitter and the axis from the
center of the lens to the center of the reception area
for the Receiver.
Mechanical axis: The axis perpendicular to the center of the lens.
