Photoelectric Sensors detect objects, changes in surface conditions, and other items through a variety of optical properties.
A Photoelectric Sensor consists primarily of an Emitter for emitting light and a Receiver for receiving light. When emitted light is interrupted or reflected by the sensing object, it changes the amount of light that arrives at the Receiver. The Receiver detects this change and converts it to an electrical output. The light source for the majority of Photoelectric Sensors is infrared or visible light (generally red, or green/blue for identifying colors).
1. Long Sensing Distance
A Through-beam Sensor, for example, can detect objects more than 10 m away. This is impossible with magnetic, ultrasonic, or other sensing methods.
2. Virtually No Sensing Object Restrictions
These Sensors operate on the principle that an object interrupts or reflects light, so they are not limited like Proximity Sensors to detecting metal objects. This means they can be used to detect virtually any object, including glass, plastic, wood, and liquid.
3. Fast Response Time
The response time is extremely fast because light travels at high speed and the Sensor performs no mechanical operations because all circuits are comprised of electronic components.
4. High Resolution
The incredibly high resolution achieved with these Sensors derives from advanced design technologies that yielded a very small spot beam and a unique optical system for receiving light. These developments enable detecting very small objects, as well as precise position detection.
5. Non-contact Sensing
There is little chance of damaging sensing objects or Sensors because objects can be detected without physical contact. This ensures years of Sensor service.
6. Color Identification
The rate at which an object reflects or absorbs light depends on both the wavelength of the emitted light and the color of the object. This property can be used to detect colors.
7. Easy Adjustment
Positioning the beam on an object is simple with models that emit visible light because the beam is visible.

What Is a Proximity Sensor?
"Proximity Sensor" includes all sensors that perform non-contact detection in comparison to sensors, such as limit switches, that detect objects by physically contacting them. Proximity Sensors convert information on the movement or presence of an object into an electrical signal. There are three types of detection systems that do this conversion: systems that use the eddy currents that are generated in metallic sensing objects by electromagnetic induction, systems that detect changes in electrical capacity when approaching the sensing object, and systems that use magnets and reed switches.
The Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS) define proximity sensors in JIS C 8201-5-2 (Low-voltage switchgear and controlgear, which conforms to the IEC 60947-5-2 definition of non-contact position detection switches.
JIS gives the generic name "proximity switch" to all sensors that provide non-contact detection of target objects that are close by or within the general vicinity of the sensor, and classifies them as inductive, capacitive, ultrasonic, photoelectric, magnetic, etc. This Technical Explanation defines all inductive sensors that are used for detecting metallic objects, capacitive sensors that are used for detecting metallic or non-metallic objects, and sensors that utilize magnetic DC fields as Proximity Sensors.
Proximity Sensors detect an object without touching it, and they therefore do not cause abrasion or damage to the object.
Devices such as limit switches detect an object by contacting it, but Proximity Sensors are able to detect the presence of the object electrically, without having to touch it.
No contacts are used for output, so the Sensor has a longer service life (excluding sensors that use magnets).Proximity Sensors use semiconductor outputs, so there are no contacts to affect the service life.
Unlike optical detection methods, Proximity Sensors are suitable for use in locations where water or oil is used.
Detection takes place with almost no effect from dirt, oil, or water on the object being detected. Models with fluororesin cases are also available for excellent chemical resistance.
Proximity Sensors provide high-speed response, compared with switches that require physical contact.For information on high-speed response, refer toExplanation of Terms on page
5. Proximity Sensors can be used in a wide temperature range.
Proximity Sensors can be used in temperatures ranging from −40 to 200°C.
6. Proximity Sensors are not affected by colors.
Proximity Sensors detect the physical changes of an object, so they are almost completely unaffected by the object's surface color.
7. Unlike switches, which rely on physical contact, Proximity Sensors are affected by ambient temperatures, surrounding objects, and other Sensors.Both Inductive and Capacitive Proximity Sensors are affected by interaction with other Sensors. Because of this, care must be taken when installing them to prevent mutual interference. (Refer to the Precautions for Correct Use in the Safety Precautions for All Proximity Sensors.)
Care must also be taken to prevent the effects of surrounding metallic objects on Inductive Proximity Sensors, and to prevent the effects of all surrounding objects on Capacitive Proximity Sensors.
8. There are Two-wire Sensors.
The power line and signal line are combined. If only the power line is wired, internal elements may be damaged. Always insert a load. (Refer to the Precautions for Safe Usein the Safety Precautions for All Proximity Sensors.)

Vibration is a time-based (periodic/cyclic) displacement of an object around a center static position. The following contributing factors have a complex relationship with the magnitude and rate of the vibration:
Vibration measurement is complex because of its many components – displacement, velocity, acceleration, and frequencies. Also, each of these components can be measured in different ways – peak-to-peak, peak, average, RMS; each of which can be measured in the time domain (real-time, instantaneous measurements with an oscilloscope or data acquisition system) or frequency domain (vibration magnitude at different frequencies across a frequency spectrum), or just a single number for “total vibration.”
Vibration measurement is sometimes used as an indirect measurement of some other value. The final measurement goal determines the approach to the measuring vibration. Often, condition monitoring– predicting or monitoring wear, fatigue, and failure – requires vibration measurements meant to determine the kinetic energy and forces acting upon an object . This is often called inertial vibration. Monitoring machinery motors (especially the bearings) in critical applications is an example. In these cases, the measurement of acceleration provides an easy conversion to units of force assuming the mass of the object is known.
Other applications are concerned with the displacement of the object of interest because unintended displacements degrade performance of a system. Hard-disk drives and machine tools are examples of this type of vibration measurement, sometimes referred to as positional vibration or relative vibration.

What Is a Displacement Sensor?
A Displacement Sensor is a device that measures the distance between the sensor and an object by detecting the amount of displacement through a variety of elements and converting it into a distance. Depending on what element is used, there are several types of sensors, such as optical displacement sensors, linear proximity sensors, and ultrasonic displacement sensors.
What Is a Measurement Sensor?
A Measurement Sensor is a device that measures the dimensions of an object by converting changes in amount of light into electrical signals when the object interrupts a wide laser beam.
Features
1. A physical quantity of an object can be measured.
A Displacement Sensor measures and detects changes (displacement) in a physical quantity.
The Sensor can measure the height, width, and thickness of an object by determining the amount of displacement of that object. A Measurement Sensor measures the position and dimensions of an object.
2. Physical quantity output is also possible in addition to ON/OFF signal output.
Analog output of physical quantities (current output or voltage output) can also be performed (excluding some models). Some models also support digital (serial) communications.
Displacement Sensors
1. Optical Displacement Sensors
Triangulation Measurement Method
These sensors use a triangulation measurement system. Some sensors employ a PSD, and others employ a CMOS (CCD) as the light receiving element.
• PSD Method
Light from the light source is condensed by the lens and directed onto the object.
Light reflected from the object is condensed onto a one- dimensional position sensing device (PSD)* by the receiving lens. If the position of the object (the distance to the measuring device) changes, the image formation positions on the PSD will differ and the balance of the two PSD outputs will change.
If the two outputs are A and B, calculate A/(A + B) and use appropriate values for the span coefficient “k” and the offset “C” as shown below.
• CMOS (CCD) Method
Light source
Emitter lens Emitter axis
Object
Light-receiving element
Receiver lens
Receiver axis
Compared with a sensor that employs the PSD method, a sensor that employs a CMOS (CCD) as the light receiving element provides a more accurate measurement of displacement without being affected by surface color and texture of objects.
The sensor detects the amounts of light on individual pixels in the CMOS (CCD) and converts them into a distance when a spot beam that reflects off of the surface of the object is projected onto the light receiving element.

ntroduction
What Is a Pressure Sensor?
A pressure sensor is a device equipped with a pressure-sensitive element that measures the pressure of a gas or a liquid against a diaphragm made of stainless steel, silicon, etc., and converts the measured value into an electrical signal as an output.
(The E8 Pressure Sensors use a silicon diaphragm.)
Features
Different sensors are used for different measurement targets, such as liquids, gases, flammable substances, and corrosive substances.
(The E8 Sensors are used to measure the pressure of non-flammable and non-corrosive gases.)
There are sensors that measure the absolute pressure and those that measure the pressure relative to atmospheric pressure or a specified pressure. For sensors that use atmospheric pressure as a reference, there are sensors that measure negative pressures and positive pressures. (The E8Y is a differential pressure sensor. The E8F2 is a gauge pressure sensor that uses atmospheric pressure as the reference.)
Operating Principles
• A semiconductor piezo-resistance dispersion pressure sensor has a semiconductor distortion gauge formed on the surface of the diaphragm, and it converts changes in electrical resistance into an electrical signal by means of the piezo-resistance effect that occurs when the diaphragm is distorted due to an external force (pressure).
Typical model: E8F2
• A static capacitance pressure sensor has a capacitor that is
formed by a static glass electrode and an opposing movable silicon electrode, and it converts changes in static capacitance that occur when the movable electrode is distorted due to an external force (pressure) into an electrical signal.
Typical model: E8Y

What Is a Limit Switch?
A Limit Switch is enclosed in a case to protect a built-in basic switch from external force, water, oil, gas, and dust. Limit Switches are made to be particularly suited for applications that require mechanical strength or environmental resistance.
The shapes of Limit Switches are broadly classified into Horizontal, Vertical, and Multiple Limit Switches. The structure of a typical vertical Limit Switch is shown in the following figure as an example. Limit Switches are generally composed of five components.
Drive Mechanism of Limit Switch
The drive mechanism of the Limit switch is an important part of the Limit Switch and is directly linked to seal performance and operating characteristics. Drive mechanisms are classified into three types, as shown in the following figure.
(1) Plunger
There are two types of plunger (types A and B in the figure) depending on the sealing method. With type A, an O-ring or a rubber diaphragm is used for sealing. The rubber seal is not externally exposed, and so resistance is provided against cutting debris from machine tools, but sand and fine shavings may become stuck on the sliding surface of the plunger. With type B, sand and fine shavings will not become stuck, and the sealing performance is superior to type A, but hot cutting debris striking the Switch may damage the rubber cap. Whether type A or type B is required depends on the location in which the Switch is to be used.
With the plunger drive, the movement of the plunger piston enables air to be compressed and taken in.
Therefore, if the plunger is left pushed in for a long time, the air in the Limit Switch will escape and the internal pressure will become equivalent to atmospheric pressure. This will cause
the plunger to tend to reset slowly even if an attempt is made to quickly reset it. To prevent this problem from occurring, design the system to limit the amount of air compressed by pushing in the plunger to 20% or less of the total air pressure in the Limit Switch. To extend the service life of the Limit switch, the plunger drive includes an OT absorption mechanism that absorbs the remaining plunger movement using an OT absorption spring and stops the movement of an auxiliary plunger that pushes the Built-in switch according to the movement of the plunger.
(2) Hinge Lever
The amount of plunger movement is increased at the end of the lever (i.e., roller) by the lever ratio, and so an absorption mechanism is generally not used.
(3) Roller Lever
The structure of the WL is shown as a typical example. Other drives include those in which the plunger performs the function of the reset plunger and those in which a coil spring is used for the reset force and a cam is used to move the auxiliary plunger.

What Is a Photomicrosensor?
A Photomicrosensor is a small photoelectronic sensor with an amplifier built into it that is used primarily as a component for building into equipment. Like any ordinary photoelectric sensor with a built-in amplifier, it is used, for example, in applications to detect passing objects or in positioning applications. The sensing object is most often a piece of metal called a "dog". When the dog enters the sensing area, it is optically detected by the Photomicrosensor, which outputs a signal.
Features
Photomicrosensors have the following advantages over ordinary photoelectric sensors with built-in amplifiers
1. Many Different Shapes in One Model Series
The EE-SX67 Series, for example, has models with eight different slot configurations, allowing the customer to choose the best configuration for the installation position.
2. Low Price
Ratings and performances are limited to those required for building into equipment, and the required IP degree of protection is easier to achieve, making prices very reasonable.
3. Downsizing Is Possible with the Sensing Distances Required for Building into Equipment
The standard sensing distances (slot width) are specifically intended to be used for building into equipment. Slot-type Sensors, for example, have a 3.6 mm or 5 mm sensing distance. Diffuse-reflective and Limited Reflective Sensors have a sensing distance of less than 5 mm, and Retroreflective and Through-beam Sensors, less than 1 m.
4. Indicator Lighting Mode
The indicator on many Photomicrosensors lights when light is incident. Some Photomicrosensors have specific models on which the indicator lights when light is interrupted. When lighting the indicator for position adjustment applications of Slot-type Sensors, for example, it may be more convenient to use a model that lights the indicator when light is interrupted. When using the indicator to check the power supply status, on the other hand, it may be convenient to use a model that lights the indicator when light is incident.
5. Other Specifications: Degree of Protection and Output Current
A waterproof structure is not required because it is assumed the Photomicrosensors will be built into other equipment, and the output current rating can be kept low. Also, most models can operate on a 5-VDC power supply.
