Notes:
1) Where measurement conditions have not been specified precisely, the conditions used were an ambient temperature of +23 ℃ +73.4 ℉.
2) The without boss type (GL-12F type) is also available.
The specifications are the same as for the with boss type. (However, max. response frequency: 500 Hz, operation indicator: Red LED)
3) The maximum operation distance stands for the maximum distance for which the sensor can detect the standard sensing object.
The stable sensing range stands for the sensing range for which the sensor can stably detect the standard sensing object even if there is an ambient temperature drift and/or supply voltage fluctuation.
