APPLICATIONS
Detecting objects with a complex shape
Its linear sensing area enables more
stable detection of objects with complex
shapes.
NOTE: The applications given in this catalog are examples for reference only. Stable sensing may not be possible under
certain setup conditions and environmental conditions, so be sure to check the actual sensor before use.
Industry standard mounting pitch
The mounting pitch for sensor heads is
25.4 mm 1.000 in, the same industry standard as the
CX-400 series Ver.2 general purpose photoelectric
sensors. Hence, existing mounting brackets can be used
even when replacing general purpose sensors with laser
sensors.

Easy and accurate adjustments
A spot-size adjuster is built into the back of the sensor
head allowing the user to adjust the sensor easily while
viewing the spot. The adjuster is adjustable with a
screwdriver to avoid accidents during maintenance or
any other time the sensors are handled.
Easy adjustment while

Sensor mounting bracket for beam axis
alignment is available
It is possible to make a minor adjustment for the bracket
by 4 degrees up, down, right or left, even after setting
up the sensor. The bracket can be mounted in both
longitudinal and lateral directions.

Detecting electronic component pins
Because its spot shape can be adjusted in accordance
with the object, it can be easily set to detect even the
minutest object from a remote location.
