Detection of different colored objects at a certain distance Hardly affected by color
Hardly affected by background
The color or size of the object does not affect its sensing performance.
The sensor does not detect the background beyond the set distance since it is of distance adjustable type.

BASIC PERFORMANCE
Waterproof IP67 (IEC)
High-speed response time: 1 ms
The equipment on which the sensor is mounted can be washed without any problem.
It can be used on a high speed assembly line.
Note: However, take care that if it is exposed to water splashes during operation. It may detect a water drop itself.
Insusceptible to dust The sensing performance is less affected by dust as it does not depend on the incident light intensity.
Adjustable Range Reflective Type The sensing range for which the sensor detects an object is determined by the incident beam angle, regardless of the incident light intensity. RX-LS200

• If a specular body is present in the background, wrong operation may be caused due to a small change in the angle of the background body. In that case, install the sensor at an inclination and confirm the operation with the actual sensing object. • Do not install the sensor at a distance of less than 50 mm 1.969 in from the object because the sensing is unstable in this range. Wiring • The output of RX-LS200-P does not incorporate a shortcircuit protection circuit. Do not connect it directly to a power supply or a capacitive load. Use conditions to comply with CE Marking • Following work must be done in case of using this product as a CE marking (European standard EMC Directive) conforming product. Ensure that the shield is connected to 0 V or the actual ground.
• Care must be taken regarding the sensor mounting direction with respect to the object’s direction of movement. Correct
Refer to p.1552~ for general precautions.

• When detecting a specular object (aluminum or copper foil) or an object having a glossy surface or coating, please take care that there are cases when the object may not be detected due to a small change in angle, wrinkles on the object surface, etc. • When a specular body is present below the sensor, use the sensor by tilting it slightly upwards to avoid wrong operation.
