5 Application specific models Limited-reflective types suitable for detecting transparant film to shiny, mirror film. Transparent object detection types utilising Omron s unique technology for detecting objects with birefringent (double refraction) properties. Background suppression types for the stable detection of different objects with various colours. EFA Special Models The EFA series includes special models to solve demanding applications, for example, in the food and packaging industry. This includes the detection of transparent or structured objects. BGS (background suppression) 1 mm mm Limited distance reflective 1 to 5 mm Transparent detection with P-opaquing function 1 to 5 mm with E9-RP1 Transparent detection with P-opaquing function.1 to m with E9-RP1
6 Non-stop detection Especially designed for machines that never stop, the rugged EFA series offers completely reliable sensing in a robust and waterproof housing that can withstand even high-pressure cleaning. Exceeding market standards, this series also has high EMC protection and light immunity. In addition, there is the added benefit of the high-power LED, which contributes to high sensing stability even in environments with dust or vibrations. High power LED to compensate for dirt and misalignment. Pulse synchronisation for high ambient light immunity. Intensive shielding for high electromagnetic noise immunity. Tight housing construction for high-level water protection.

Safety Precautions Refer to Warranty and Limitations of Liability. WARNING This product is not designed or rated for directly or indirectly ensuring safety of persons. Do not use it for such a purpose. CAUTION Never use the product with an AC power supply. Do not use the product with voltage in excess of the rated voltage. Do not use the product with incorrect wiring. Otherwise, explosion, fire, malfunction may result. Precautions for Safe Use Be sure to follow the safety precautions below for added safety. 1. Do not use the sensor under the environment with explosive, flammable or corrosive gas.. Do not use the sensor under the oil or chemical environment.. Do not use the sensor in the water, rain or outdoors. 4. Do not use the sensor in the environment where humidity is high and condensation may occur. 5. Do not use the sensor under the environment under the other conditions in excess of rated. 6. Do not use the sensor in place that is exposed by direct sunlight.. Do not use the sensor in place where the sensor may receive direct vibration or shock. 8. Do not use the thinner, alcohol, or other organic solvents. 9. Never disassemble, repair nor tamper with the sensor. 1.Please process it as industrial waste. Precautions for Correct Use 1. Laying Sensor wiring in the same conduit or duct as high-voltage wires or power lines may result in malfunction or damage due to conduit or use shielded cable.. Do not pull on the cable with excessive force.. If a commercial switching regulator is used, ground the FG (frame ground) terminal. 4. The sensor will be available 1 ms after the power supply is tuned ON. Start to use the sensor 1 ms or more after turning ON the power supply. If the load and the sensor are connected to separate power supplies, be sure to turn ON the sensor first. 5. Output pulses may be generated even when the power supply is. Therefore, it is recommended to first turn the power supply for the load or the load line. 6. The sensor must be mounted using the provided nuts. The proper tightening torque range of EFA/ERA plastic housing series is between.4 and.5 N m. The proper tightening torque of EFB/ ERB metal housing series is N m max..
