Correlation between material and sensing range - Glossary - Photoelectric Sensors

Correlation between material and sensing range

This diagram of the convergent or the adjustable range reflective type sensor gives the correlation between object material and sensing range.
The graph is useful to determine the sensing distance for which the sensor can reliably detect an object considering its material. (Note)

The bars in the graph indicate the sensing range for the respective material.
However, there is a slight variation in the sensing range depending on the product. Further, if there is a reflective object (conveyor, etc.) in the background of the sensing object, since it affects the sensing, separate it by more than twice the sensing range shown in the left graph.

Note :These are typical graphs, and are subject to slight changes from model to model.
