A 160 Times the Incident Level for the Most
Stable Detection Performance in the World
The E3X-DA-S Digital Fiber Sensor increases the level of emitted light up
to 4 times (compared with previous models) with increased reliability in
environments with dirt and dust.
A significant improvement in the optical coupling efficiency and 4 times
the level of emitted light make stable detection possible even in bad
environments, reducing the work required for maintenance and adjustments.
By using Tough Mode and power tuning, the incident level can be increased
160 times in comparison with previous models.
OMRON's Unique High-efficiency Coupling Element Controls the Light
OMRON has developed a light-emitting device with over four times the power
of previous devices by combining technical know-how accumulated over year
of experience with newly developed optical and manufacturing technology.
Four Strong Points Support the High-efficiency Coupling Element
Development of New Optical Technology (Patent Pending)
The light-emitting element and fiber are coupled with high efficiency by
combining a minute lens and mirror with great accuracy, and optimally
controlling the directional angle of the light output by the LED.
Alignment Technology for Minute Optical Systems (Patent Pending)
OMRON has developed unique alignment technology for positioning components
and specialized facilities to precisely assemble micro-optical components.
Laminated Mounting Technology for Reflectors and LEDs (Patent Pending)
Highly accurate laminated mounting of high-luminance LEDs in the reflector
that was newly designed to couple with the fiber enables more efficient
control of light and enables downsizing devices.
LED Packaging Technology
Low loop wire bonding technology and highly reliable, ultra-thin packaging
technology support the performance of the highly efficient coupling
element.
Twice the Sensing Distance
The longest sensing distance available. And stable long-distance detection
is possible even with flexible or extremely thin fibers.
Although normally flexible and extremely thin fibers make stable detection
difficult at long distances due to insufficient light, OMRON has doubled
the sensing distance to enable stable long-distance detection. Even
applications using standard fibers can be switched to flexible or
extremely thin fibers, without having to worry about the light level.
Variations in the Incident Level during Fiber Insertion Reduced to Half
The variations in the incident level during insertion of the fiber are
reduced to half through uniform distribution of the light.
Depending on how a flexible or extremely thin fiber is installed, there
may be variations in the incident level. However, using a light-emitting
device to uniformly control the amount of light coupled with the fiber
reduces the variations in the incident level to half, and the adjustment
and maintenance work required during installation of the Sensor is also
reduced.
Minimum Sensing Object Reduced to Half
Further development of signal processing technology
ensures stable detection of minute objects.
In addition to a substantial increase in the incident level, further
improvements in the precision of OMRON's unique signal processing
technology have enabled the detection of objects half the size of those
that could be detected with previous models.
Uses Only Half the Energy
Power consumption has been reduced to half* in comparison with previous
models in due consideration of environmental issues.
*When using ECO2 Mode.
The sensing efficiency of E3X-DA-S Digital Fiber Sensor has been maximized, and the power consumption at
the same sensing distance has been reduced to almost half* of that of
previous models. Also, the use of parts conforming to the RoHS Directive
ensures environmental friendliness.
Easily Set the Optimum Incident Level
The E3X-DA-S Digital Fiber Sensor is equipped with a power tuning function
that lets you set the optimum incident level with a single button.
The incident level can be set without switching the mode.
Troublesome power adjustments are not required. Just press the MODE Key
once, and the power tuning function shifts the power level so that the
incident level is set to the optimum value.*
*The optimum value can be set to between 100 and 3,900.
Variations eliminated between different Sensors.
By adjusting variations in digital displays for the same application, the
same threshold value can be set for all Sensors, so that you can visually
detect troubles on the displays.
Long-term, Stable Performance
The number 1 long-term stable detection (patented) for which OMRON Sensors
are known has been inherited through the use of 4-element LEDs and an APC
(Auto Power Control) circuit.
The E3X-DA-S Digital Fiber Sensor uses OMRON's unique APC circuit and LEDs
to prevent deterioration over time, achieving the industry's most stable
long-term detection performance. OMRON Sensors can be used with high
stability, regardless of whether the APC circuit is ON or OFF.
World First
OMRON's Unique ATC (Automatic Threshold Compensation)
Malfunctions due to the dust and dirt in the workplace are prevented to
help improve the operating rate of the equipment. OMRON's unique algorithm
automatically compensates the threshold value to help achieve long-term
stable detection.
Easy-to-use Amplifier Unit Connector
Improve efficiency using OMRON's unique Amplifier Unit Connector.
(1) Wiring work is significantly reduced and less space is used.
(2) Stock costs can be reduced because it is not necessary to distinguish
between master connectors and slave connectors on the Amplifiers.
(3) Maintenance work is reduced because you can replace just the Sensor.
Many Functions for Even More Applications
Remote input function can control the Sensor remotely.
Input signals can make various remote settings, such as teaching
operations, power tuning, and emitter OFF. Teaching during process
switchovers is also supported, and you can check operation before starting
operation.
Area output function can be used for range judgments.
Judgment of heights, lengths, or other dimensions can be done with a
single Digital Fiber Sensor.
