NOTE Mounting bracket is not supplied with the sensor. Please select from the range of optional sensor mounting brackets (four types) or universal sensor mounting bracket.
Note 1 :The sensing range of the retroreflective type sensor is specified for the RF-200 reflector.
Further, the sensing range is the possible setting range for the reflector.
The sensor can detect an object less than 30 mm 1.181 in away.
However, if the reflector is set 100 mm 3.937 in or less away, the sensing object should be opaque.
Note 2 :In case of using this product at a sensing range of 50 mm 1.969 in or less, take care that the sensitivity adjustment range becomes extremely narrow.
Note 3 :The model No. with "P" shown on the label affixed to the thru-beam type sensor is the emitter, "D" shown on the label is the receiver.
(e.g.) Emitter of EX-21A: EX-21P, Receiver of EX-21A: EX-21AD

Package without reflector

Retroreflective type is also available without the reflector RF-200.
When ordering this type, suffix "-Y" to the model No.
(e.g.) Without reflector type of EX-29A-PN is "EX-29A-PN-Y".

Standard type Package without reflector
EX-29A EX-29A-Y
EX-29A-PN EX-29A-PN-Y
EX-29B EX-29B-Y
EX-29B-PN EX-29B-PN-Y

5 m 16.404 ft cable length type

5 m 16.404 ft cable length type (standard: 2 m 6.562 ft) is also available for NPN output type (including package without reflector of retroreflective type sensor).
When ordering this type, suffix "-C5" to the model No.
(e.g.) 5 m 16.404 ft cable length type of EX-29A-Y is "EX-29A-Y-C5".
