Align the sensor with the object. Select the position so that the red emitted light beam
hits the center of the object. You must ensure that the optical opening (front screen) of
the sensor is completely clear
Figure 2: Alignment
Check the application conditions: Adjust the sensing range and distance to the object
or background and the remission capability of the object according to the correspond‐
ing diagram [see figure 3] (x = sensing range, y = monitored area between the set
sensing range and background suppression as a % of the sensing range (object remis‐
sion/background remission)). Remission: 6% = black 1, 18% = gray 2, 90% = white 3
(referring to standard white as per DIN 5033). We recommend making the adjustments
using an object with a low remission.
The minimum distance (= y) for background suppression can be determined from
diagram [ see figure 3 1] as follows:
Example: x = 150 mm, y = 20 => 20% of 150 mm = 30 mm. That is, the background is
suppressed at a distance of > 180 mm from the sensor.
[see figure 2].
