Amplifier built-in extraordinarily small and slim size
Smallest body, just 3.5 mm
0.138 in
thick
It can be mounted in a very
small space as its size is just
W10 × H14.5 × D3.5 mm
W0.394 × H0.571 × D0.138 in
(thru-beam, front sensing type).
Flexible mounting
The diffuse reflective type sensor is front sensing and is
so thin that it gives an impression of being just pasted
on the mounting base. The thru-beam type is available
as front sensing type, as well as, side sensing type,
allowing flexible mounting.
Thru-beam
• Front sensing type
• Side sensing type
Diffuse reflective
• Front sensing type
A wide variety of narrow-beam type! Light diffusion is approx. 1/2 of standard type.
Less interference with no slit,
narrow-pitch can be set.
The pitch of installation is 1/2 of
conventional models, so that the
close-installation is possible. No cost
is necessary to purchase or install
a slit.

BASIC PERFORMANCE
Electric power saving *
The
EX-10
series
achieves reductions
in power consumption
of up to 65 %. These
sensors contribute
to environmental
friendliness.
* Effective from production
in October 2010.
High-speed response time: 0.5 ms
A maximum
%
reduction
compared to conventional
sensors
35
The sensor is suitable for detecting small and high-
speed traveling objects.
Minimum sensing object: ø1 mm
ø0.039 in
EX-11(E)□, EX-15(E)□
EX-11□, EX-11E□,
EX-15
and
EX-15E
are incorporated
with ø1 mm
ø0.039 in
slit masks so that ø1 mm
ø0.039 in,
or more, object
can be detected. Hence,
they are suitable for precise
positioning or small parts
detection.

□
A sensing range of 1 m
3.281 ft
has been realized
with a slim size of just 3.5
mm
0.138 in.
It can be used
to detect even wide IC trays.

Background suppression
Hardly affected by background
Even a specular background
separated by 100 mm
3.937
in,
or more, is not detected.
(However, the background
should be directly opposite.
A spherical or curved
background may be
detected.)

EX-14□
Black object reliably detected
It can reliably detect dark
color objects since it is
convergent reflective type.
The best distance
is approx. 10 mm
0.394 in
from the
object.

significantly stronger
against inverter light and
other extraneous light.

October 2010.
Fluorescent light
Waterproof IP67
The sensors features an IP67 rating to allow their use
in process lines where water is used or splashed.
Rust-resistant stainless steel sensor mounting brackets
are available.
Note: If water splashes on the sensor during sensing operation, it may
sense water as an object.
Bending durability
EX-□-R
Bending-resistant cable type
EX-□-R

OTHERS
Less resources used *
Based on environmental
considerations, simplified
packaging is used in order
to reduce waste.
In addition, the bag is
made from polyethylene
which produces no toxic
gases even when burned.
* Effective from production in
October 2010.

NOTE: Mounting bracket is not supplied with the sensor. Please select from the range of optional sensor mounting brackets
(MS-EX10-□). Sensor mounting brackets (MS-EX10-□) can not be used for the narrow beam type (EX-□S□).
Notes: 1) The sensor does not detect even a specular background if it is separated by 100 mm
3.937 in
or more. (However, the background should be directly
opposite. A spherical or curved background may be detected.)
2) The model No. with “P”
shown on the label affixed to the thru-beam type sensor is the emitter, “D”
shown on the label is the receiver.
Bending-resistant cable type
Bending-resistant cable type is also available for NPN output type. (excluding narrow beam type
EX-□S□
and sensor with operation mode switch on the
bifurcation
EX-15□/17□)
When ordering this type, suffix “-R”
to the model No.
(e.g.) Bending-resistant cable type of
EX-11A
is “EX-11A-R”.
