Mounting
Install the diffuse reflection sensor in a way that the light beam can fall unimpededly onto the
object to be detected. The diffuse reflection sensor can be fixed in a plastic or metal plate with
through bore of ∅ > 18mm using the supplied nuts (SW 24). The maximum tightening torque is
22Nm. Alternatively, there are available our quick clips AY000051.
Adjustment
Turn the potentiometer counter-clockwise until the stop (minimum sensitivity position). Move
the object to be detected into the beam path. Turn the potentiometer clockwise until
the output switches reliably (see "LED-display"). Memorize position "A" of the potentiometer.
Now take the object to be detected out of the beam path. Turn the potentiometer further in
clockwise direction. If the output switches again, memorize position "B" of the potentiometer. If
you can turn the potentiometer until the right stop (maximum sensitivity position) without
switching of the output, this corresponds to position "B".
Now turn the potentiometer exactly to the centre position between "A" and "B"!
Note: Turn the potentiometer always slowly. Turning with excessive strength will
damage the device irreparably.
LED-display:
The
device
provides
active switching output. The green LED indicates a reliable switching behavior. It should light up
as well in switched as in non-switched status.
For the maximum switching accuracy in case of lateral passing, the
direction is to chose as shown in the picture aside.
