EE-SPX-W Slot-type Photomicrosensor with Cable 47
Slot-type Photomicrosensor with Cable
EE-SPX-W
Photomicrosensor with built-in
amplifier and attached cable reduces
external light interference.
Light modulation effectively reduces external light
interference.
Wide operation voltage range: 5 to 24 VDC
Easy operation monitoring with bright light indicator.
Refer to Precautions on page 49.
Ordering Information
Note: The EE-SPX305-W2A/SPX405-W2A are not CE certified due to their internal structures. All other Photomicrosensors are CE certified.

Precautions
Refer to General Precautions on page 23 to 28 for general precautions.
Do not use this product in sensing devices
designed to provide human safety.
Make sure that this product is used within the rated ambient
environment conditions.
Wiring
When extending the cable, use an extension cable with
conductors having a total cross-section area of 0.3 mm2.
The total cable length must be 2 m maximum.
To use a cable length longer than 2 m, attach a capacitor
with a capacitance of approximately 10 µF to the wires as
shown below. The distance between the terminal and the
capacitor must be within 2 m. (Use a capacitor with a
dielectric strength that is at least twice the Sensor's power
supply voltage.)
