1.Overview This machine uses non-contact measurement to measure air pressure, in order to determine gaps between workpieces and air nozzles at a high level of precision. It compares the current value with a preset gap master value. If the current value is narrower than the master value, the gap is determined to be OK.
2. Specifications 2-3. Response time characteristics The response time is the time it takes for determination output to switch ON once a workpiece has been brought toward the air nozzle and has stopped moving (with air supplied to the machine). This will vary depending on factors such as the length and diameter of the piping from the OUT port to the air nozzle, the seating of the workpiece, and the supplied air pressure.The graphs below show response times when a workpiece is brought toward the air nozzle at a speed of 10 mm/sec.

3. Operation Preparation 3-1. Fitting mounting ① Connect a fitting to either SUP port 1 or 2 in the figure shown below. Insert a plug (attached) into whichever SUP port is not being used. ② Connect fittings to OUT ports 1 through 3 in the figure shown below. Insert a plug into any unused OUT ports.
3. Operation Preparation 3-3. Air piping connections Refer to the piping example. Connect the precision regulator and air filter to either SUP port 1 or 2, and connect the air nozzle and leakage unit to OUT ports 1 through 3. ●...

6. Modes 6-4. SMOOTHING set mode Pressing and holding the port 1 master set button and port 3 master set button at the same time for at least five seconds while in determination mode will switch to SMOOTHING set mode. If there is no operation for 3 seconds or more in SMOOTHING set mode, the mode will automatically switch to determination mode.
7. Master Setting Master setting refers to using a master workpiece to set the master value, which is a threshold value used for determination. The master can be set in determination mode and in external master set mode. Refer to the table below, as the method for setting the master differs by mode. Master setting Mode ACK output...
7. Master Setting 7-2. Master setting via button input (determination mode) The master can be reset by setting the master workpiece in place and then pressing the button corresponding to each port for at least 1 second in determination mode. Refer to the figure below for details.

7. Master Setting 7-3. Master setting via external input (external master set mode) The master can be reset by setting the master workpiece in place and then inputting a pulse corresponding to each port in external master set mode. Refer to the figure below for details. External master set permission input ON Adjust to supply pressure of 150 to 200 kPa Supply pressure...

8. Frequently-asked Questions (FAQs) 1. Specifications Q.1-1 Is distance output as an absolute value? A.1-1 No. Gaps are determined as being either above or below the master value only. (Refer to p.1) 2. Wiring Q.2-1 Should the output line be connected to either the collector or the emitter? A.2-1 No.
