Notes:
1) Where measurement conditions have not been specified precisely, the conditions used were an ambient temperature of +23 ℃ +73.4 ℉.
2) The sensing range and the sensing object of the retroreflective type sensor is specified for the RF-230 reflector. Further, the sensing range is the possible setting range for the reflector.

The sensor can detect an object less than 0.1 m 0.328 ft away.
3) The sensing range and the hysteresis of the diffuse reflective type sensor are specified for white non-glossy paper (200 x 200 mm 7.874 x 7.874 in) as the object.
4) If slit masks (optional) are fitted, an object as small as 3 x 6 mm 0.118 x 0.236 in can be detected.
5) Make sure to confirm detection with an actual sensor before use.
6) In case the sensor is to be used at an ambient temperature of -15℃ +5℉, or less, please contact our office.
