SH-32R Correlation between sensing object size and sensing range

As the sensing object size becomes smaller than the standard size (white non-glossy paper 50 × 50 mm 1.969 × 1.969 in), the sensing range shortens, as shown in the left graph.
For plotting the left graph, the sensitivity has been set such that a 50 × 50 mm 1.969 × 1.969 in white non-glossy paper is just detectable at a distance of 100 mm 3.937 in.

Cautions For Use

Sensor head

  • Never use this product as a sensing device for personnel protection.
  • In case of using sensing 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.

•Always use the sensor head and the exclusive amplifier together as a set.

Mounting

  • With tapped screws

With attached screws and nuts

The tightening torque should be 0.14 N·m or less.

・The tightening torque should be 0.29 N·m or less when mounting the sensor head with the screws.

The tightening torque should be 0.14N·m or less.

For ultra-small type, mark sensor & glass substrate detection sensor

・Use M3 screws to mount the sensor head with the attached sensor head mounting bracket.

Chemical resistant type

・Use M4 screws to assemble the sensor head with the optional sensor head mounting bracket MS-SH6-2, in order to form the convergent sensing mode.

In case of chemical resistant type sensor head

Amplifier

  • Do not use where it can be exposed to molten alkali metals (sodium, potassium, lithium, etc.), fluorine gas (F2), CIF3, OF2 (including gaseous state), etc.
  • In case of cable extension, the extended portion should be placed in an area where it is not exposed to chemicals.

Wiring

  • The self-diagnosis output does not incorporate a shortcircuit protection circuit. Do not connect it directly to a power supply or a capacitive load.

Sensitivity setting

・Normal sensitivity setting

Standard setting
The sensor recognizes the ON (object present) and OFF (object absent) levels by your pressing of the buttons. The threshold level is automatically set at the middle between ON and OFF levels.

 

・Maximum sensitivity setting

Full power setting
The maximum sensitivity is set. Take care that, in case of the diffuse reflective type, if a background object is present, the sensing output may turn ON even without the sensing object.

 

*How to set sensitivity with external inputs

Remote sensitivity setting (SU-77 only)
Instead of pressing buttons, the sensitivity can be set with the remote sensitivity setting inputs. (There is no external sensitivity shift mode.)
Setting procedure
The procedure is the same as for setting with sensitivity buttons, except that instead of pressing the buttons, the remote sensitivity setting input wire is shortcircuited to 0 V. The mode selection switch is set to either the “SET” or “RUN” side.

・Time chart
The self-diagnosis output stays ON for 40 ms approx. after ON input or OFF input is recognized by the sensor.
(If the difference between the ON and OFF levels (the difference between incident light levels) is so small that stable detection is not possible, it does not turn ON.)

T1≥1,000ms、3,000ms>T2≥5ms、T3≈310ms、T4≈40ms、T5≥500ms
Notes:
1)Signal condition ... Low: 0 to 1 V, High: 4.5 to 30 V, or open Input impedance: 10 kΩ
2):Do not move the object, etc., or change the incident light intensity during T3.

 

・Sensitivity for detecting minute differences

Limit sensitivity setting

Setting for minute detection is possible just by pressing a button once without the object being present.
For detecting a tiny object 

               

For stable detection of an object without detecting the background


Setting procedure
By pressing either ON or OFF button for 3 sec. or more, the threshold level is set 15 % either lower or higher than the object absent level as shown in the right figure.

(Please note that the output operation cannot be reversed.)
For example, press the ON button for detecting a tiny object.

               

 

・For applications in which beam intensity fluctuates

Sensitivity shift

If the incident light is stable in either the object present or object absent state, by shifting the threshold level towards this state, stable sensing is possible even if the incident light is unstable in the other state. The setting level is the same as for limit sensitivity setting. However, since the operating level is shifted after the normal sensitivity setting, output operation is selectable.
Setting procedure
Press the sensitivity setting button which was pressed in the stable light received condition. For example, for a diffuse reflective type sensor, in case a background object is present, press the button which was pressed with only the background object being sensed.

Remote sensitivity selection function (SU-79 only)

  • SU-79 can store four channels of sensitivity levels, which can be selected as per your requirement. Designate the channel that is to store the sensitivity by making the remote sensitivity selection inputs 1 and 2 suitably High or Low.

External synchronization function (SU-75 only)

  • The external synchronization function can be used to control the timing of sensing. Edge trigger or gate trigger are available.

T≥0.6ms(T≧0.8ms when the interference prevention function is used)

Note:The external synchronization selection switch must be turned fully clockwise or counterclockwise.

Test input (emission halt) function (SU-75 only)

  • When the test input (emission halt input) (violet) is shortcircuited to 0 V (Low), the beam emission is halted. This function is useful for a start-up test since the sensing output can be made ON / OFF without the sensing object. Short-circuit to 0 V and open the input, repeatedly. If the sensing output follows this operation, the sensor is working well, else not.

Timer function (Excluding SU-75)

  • Every SU-7 series amplifier (excluding SU-75) is incorporated with a variable ON / OFF delay timer for 0 to 5 sec.

ON-delay
As only longer signals are extracted, this function is useful for detecting if a line is clogged, or for sensing only objects taking a long time to travel.

OFF-delay
Since the output signal is extended for a fixed time interval, this function is useful if the output signal is so short that the connected device cannot respond.

  • Timer period setting

Adjust the time duration of ON or OFF delay by turning the timer adjuster.

Note:Adjust the timer under “SET” mode. Adjustment is not allowed in “SIF” or “RUN” mode.

Self-diagnosis function

  • The sensor checks the incident light intensity, and if it is reduced due to dirt or dust, or beam misalignment, an output is generated.

[1]The self-diagnosis output transistor stays in the “OFF” state during stable sensing.

[2]When the sensing output changes, if the incident light intensity does not reach the stable light received level or the stable dark level, the self-diagnosis output becomes ON. It is automatically restored after 40 ms approx. Further, the self-diagnosis output changes state when the sensing output changes from Light to Dark state.
It is not affected by the output operation of the sensing output.

[3]In case of insufficient beam interruption, there will be a time lag before the self-diagnosis output turns ON.

  • Do not use during the initial transient time (0.5 sec.) after the power supply is switched on.
