As the sensing object size becomes smaller than the standard size (white non-glossy paper 200 × 200 mm 7.874 × 7.874 in), the sensing range shortens, as shown in the left graph. 

For plotting the left graph, the sensitivity has been set such that a 200 × 200 mm 7.874 × 7.874 in white non-glossy paper is just detectable at a distance of 800 mm 31.496 in.

- Increase the distance between the sensor and the sensing object. 

## **CX-48□** 

## **Retroreflective type sensor for transparent object sensing (CX-48□)** 

- Optimum sensing is possible when the position of the transparent sensing object is set at the center of the sensor and the reflector. If the sensing position is set near the sensor or the reflector, the sensing may be unstable. In this case, set the sensing position at the center of the sensor and the reflector.

- When the sensor detects an uneven plastic receptacle or glass bottle, the received-light amount may differ with the sensing position or direction. Adjust the sensitivity after confirming the stable sensing condition by turning the sensing object, etc. 

- When sensing pipe-shaped transparent sensing object, set it in a standing, not lying, position as shown in Figure A. The sensor may fail to detect a lying object as shown in Figure B.

## **PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE** 

Refer to p.1552~ for general precautions. 

## **CX-41□** 

## **Slit mask (Optional)** 

- With the slit mask **OS-CX-□** , the sensor can detect a small object. However, the sensing range is reduced when the slit mask is mounted. 

## **How to mount** 

1. Insert the fixing hook into the fixing groove. 

2.  Then, pressing the slit mask against the main unit, insert the fixing tab into the fixing groove.

## **How to remove** 

1. Insert a screwdriver into the removing tab. 

2. Pull forward while lifting the removing tab. 

## **Interference prevention filter (CX-411□)** 

- By mounting the interference prevention filters **PF-CX4-□** , two sets of the **CX-411** □ can be mounted close together. However, the sensing range is reduced when the interference prevention filter is mounted. 

- The filters can be mounted by the same method as for the slit masks. 

- Since there are two types of the interference prevention filter, the two sets of sensors should be fitted with different types of interference prevention filters, as shown in the figure below. The interference prevention does not work even if the filters are mounted for emitters only, receivers only or the same model No. of the interference prevention filters are mounted on both the sets of the sensor.

- When detecting a specular object (aluminum or copper foil, etc.) or an object having a glossy surface or coating, please take care that there are cases when the object may not be detected due to a change in angle, wrinkles on the object surface, etc. 

- When a specular body is present below the sensor, use the sensor by tilting it slightly upwards to avoid wrong operation. 

**==> picture [168 x 89] intentionally omitted <==**

**----- Start of picture text -----**<br>
Incorrect Correct<br>Specular<br>face<br>Tilt<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br>


- If a specular body is present in the background, wrong operation may be caused due to a small change in the angle of the background body. In that case, install the sensor at an inclination and confirm the operation with the actual sensing object. 

- Take care that there is a non-detectable area right in front of the sensor. 

## **Operation mode switch** 

Operation mode switch Description Detecting-ON mode is obtained when the operation mode switch is turned fully clockwise (L side). Not detecting-ON is obtained when the operation mode switch is turned fully counterclockwise (D side) 

Note: Use the flathead screwdriver (purchase separately) to turn the operation mode switch slowly. Turning with excessive strength will cause damage to the adjuster. 

- Depending on whether you select the BGS or FGS function, the output operation changes as follows.

## **Stability indicator** 

- Since the **CX-44□** use a 2-segment photodiode as its receiving element, and sensing is done based on the difference in the incident beam angle of the reflected beam from the sensing object, the output and the operation indicator (orange) operate according to the object distance. 

Further, the stability indicator (green) shows the margin to the setting distance.

## **Distance adjustment** 

**==> picture [47 x 133] intentionally omitted <==**

   - When this product is used, be sure to carry out the distance adjustment. 

   - Since the distance adjuster of this sensor is a 5-turn adjuster, when the point[A] and[B] is adjusted as explained in the table right, there may be more than 1 turn between the point[A] and[B] . Therefore, make sure to remember the turns of both points to find the optimum position. 

   - Be sure to wire the sensing mode selection input (Pink / 2) before distance adjustment. If the wiring is done after the distance adjustment, the sensing area is changed. 

- Turn the distance adjuster gradually and lightly with a “minus” screwdriver (purchase separately). In order to protect itself, the distance adjuster idles if turned fully. If the adjuster is idled when distance adjustment is done, carry out the adjustment again.
