2) The sensing range and the sensing object of the retroreflective type sensor are specified for the
RF-230
reflector. The sensing range represents the
actual sensing range of the sensor. The sensing range : A of the table below may vary depending on the shape of sensing object. Be sure to check the
operation with the actual sensing object.

The sensing range and hysteresis of the diffuse reflective type sensor are specified for white non-glossy paper (200 × 200 mm
7.874 × 7.874 in
) as the object.
4) If slit masks (optional) are fitted, an object of ø0.5 mm
ø0.020 in
(using round slit mask) can be detected.
5) Make sure to confirm detection with an actual sensor before use.
