Note 1 :

Where measurement conditions have not been specified precisely, the conditions used were an ambient temperature of +23 ℃ +73.4 ℉.

Note 2 :

The sensing range is the possible setting distance between the emitter and the receiver.

Note 3 :

Obtain the current consumption by the following equation.
Current consumption = Power consumption ÷ Supply voltage
(e.g.) When the supply voltage is 12 V, the current consumption of the emitter is:
0.5 W ÷ 12 V ≈ 0.042 A = 42 mA

Cautions For Use

  • Never use this product as a sensing device for personnel protection.
  • For sensing devices to be used as safety devices for press machines or for personnel protection, use products which meet standards, such as OSHA, ANSI or IEC etc., for personnel protection applicable in each region or country.
  • If this product is used as a sensing device for personnel protection, death or serious body injury could result.
  • For a product which meets safety standards, use the safety light curtain.

Mounting

  • Use M4 screws with washers and M4 nuts.
    The tightening torque should be 0.5 N·m or less.
    (Purchase the screws and nuts separately.)

Mounting

Orientation

  • The emitter and the receiver must face each other correctly. If they are set upside down, the sensor does not work.

Orientation

Interference prevention function

(The switches must be set with the power supply off. The operation mode does not change if the switch setting is changed with the power supplied.)

  • By setting different emission frequencies, two units of the sensor can be mounted close together, as shown in the figure below.

LONG / SHORT selection switch (incorporated on the emitter)

  • Select the switch setting according to the setting distance between the emitter and the receiver as given below.

0.5 to 1.2 m 1.640 to 3.937 ft [NA1-PK5(-PN)]
1 to 3 m 3.281 to 9.843 ft [NA1-5(-PN)]

Selection of output operation

(The switches must be set with the power supply off. The operation mode does not change if the switch setting is changed with the power supplied.)

  • The output operation mode is selected by the operation mode switch on the receiver.
Output operationOperation mode switch
ON when one or more beam channels are interrupted
(OFF when all beam channels are received).

OFF when one or more beam channels are interrupted
(ON when all beam channels are received).

ON when any two or more beam channels are interrupted.

OFF when any two or more beam channels are interrupted.

Job indicator operation selection

(The switches must be set with the power supply off. The operation mode does not change if the switch setting is changed with the power supplied.)

  • Lighting / Blinking is selected by the operation mode switch on the emitter and the receiver.
