Ultrasonic Displacement Sensor E4PA-N Now, more advanced with a new mutual interference prevention function. Long-distance detection of up to 6,000 mm supports a wide vari- ety of applications. The Sensor is not affected by the color or material of objects. A setting plug with temperature compensation makes it easy to set the sensing range. Mutual interference prevention. For the most recent information on models that have been certified for safety standards, refer to your OMRON website. Application Examples Detecting slackness in sheet Detecting liquid levels Remotely detecting LCD Detecting dies materials wafers Features The Sensor is ultrasonic, so it is not affected by the High-precision detection with a color of objects. wide range of measurements. A variety of materials can be measured, including transparent and Four types of Sensors are available with max- reflective objects. Measurements are performed with no contact, so imum sensing distances of 0.5 m, 2 m, 4 m, even highly-viscous liquids are no problem. and 6 m. With the 0.5-m type, a repeat accu- racy of 1 mm or better has been achieved. OK OK OK OK Transparent objects Black objects Reflective Highly viscous liquids objects A setting plug with a temperature compensation The mutual interference prevention function allows function makes it easy to set the sensing range. up to five Sensors to be used in close proximity. The sensing range can be set by the Setting Plug, which is included with the Sensor. No special con- troller is required.
