36 Beam Improvements Detection without Background Interference • These Fiber Units detect only objects in the sensing range. Objects in the background that are located beyond a certain point are not detected. They are not easily affected by the material or color of the sensing object.

[E3X-ZV] GIGA:

Giga-power mode (16 ms), HS: High-speed mode (250 μs), ST: Standard mode (1 ms), and SHS: Super-high-speed mode (50 μs) [E3NX-FA] GIGA: Giga-power mode (16 ms), HS: High-speed mode (250 μs), ST: Standard mode (1 ms), and SHS: Super-high-speed mode (30 μs) 3.The values for the minimum sensing object are reference values that indicate values obtained in standard mode with the sensing distance and sensitivity set to the optimum values. The first value is for the E3X-ZV and the second value is for the E3NX-FA. 4.The sensing distances for Reflective Fiber Units are for white paper. 5.The sensing distances for the E3NX-FA are values for E3NX-FA@ devices.

The distance for E3NX-FAH@ infrared models varies. 6.The E3X-HD Series offers the same sensing distance as the E3X-ZV.
