High Speed High Accuracy Eddy Current Type Digital Displacement Sensor
GP-X SERIES
High-speed sampling and high resolution. The new choice for
even more variegated data collection and processing.
They perform with a ±0.3 % F.S. linearity for stainless steel and iron
Because they perform with a ±0.3 % F.S.
linearity, they can be used for sensing stainless
steel and iron enabling precise measurements
not affected by the work’s material. Specications
corresponding to each material (stainless steel,
iron, aluminum) has already been inputted in
the controller enabling the easy selection of the
setting that is the most suitable for the particular
material used.

With a 25 μs ultra high sampling speed, the GP-X series
won’t miss even high speed work displacements.
These devices boast a 0.07 % F.S./°C
temperature characteristics
By combining the sensor head with the controller, we’ve
realized 0.07 % F.S./°C. They are highly resistant to
ambient temperature changes enabling stable micro-
displacement measurements.
We’ve realized a 25 μs (40,000 times/sec.)

They possess a 0.02 % F.S. resolution for
highly accurate measurement
Note: GP-XC3SE and GP-XC5SE

GP-XCOM
The RS-232C communication connector is standard equipment
It is capable of various controls such as saving
measurement data to PC and the controller’s
inputted settings and loading stored memory.
Enables sensors data comparisons and calculations
3-value judgment output for calculating measurement data conformity and calculation results between 2
interconnected controllers is rendered possible.
The calculation function equipment renders digital panel controllers unnecessary.
FUNCTIONS
The 5-digit, dual, 2-color digital display offers great visibility
If the measurement results fall within the setting range
(GO), they will appear on the lower digital display in
green. If they are out of range (HI, LO), they will be
displayed in the upper digital display in orange. The
display position and color change allows for accurate
visibility even for momentary changes.

5) The given weight of the threaded type sensor head is the value including the weight of the nuts and the toothed lock washer.
6) If using the sensor in an environment where cutting oil droplets splatter, the sensor may be deteriorated due to added substances in the oil. Please
check the resistivity of the sensor against the cutting oil you are using beforehand.

Mounting with nut
The sensor head and the controller are adjusted in order
to conform to the default specication linearity.
In the event of replacing sensor heads, input the sensor
head’s characteristic code and conduct 3-point correction
(calibration).
Should you use an extension cable, turn the sensor head cable
length selection switch located on the back of the controller
to “3 m + 7 m 9.843 ft + 22.966 ft”. Then reintroduce the
power supply and conduct 3-point correction (calibration).
Conditions in use for CE conformity
• This product is CE compliant and complies with EMC
directives. EN 61000-6-2 is the applicable standard
that covers immunities relating to use of this product,
but in order to comply with this standard, the following
conditions must be satised.
Conditions
• The controller should be connected less than 10 m
32.808 ft from the power supply.
• The signal line to connect with the controller should be
less than 30 m 98.425 ft.
• A ferrite clamp must be mounted within 10 mm 0.394
in from connector tted onto the GP-XBCC3 cable with
connector on one end for BCD output units.
Linearity in case of disc-shaped or cylindrical objects
• In case the sensing object is disc-shaped or cylindrical,
the linearity varies with the sensing object size.
In the event the sensing object is larger than the sizes
indicated in the table below, the linearity specication
(within ±0.3 % F.S.) is satised by performing zero-
adjustment and span adjustment when in contact using
the scaling function.

2)
Mount such that the nuts do not protrude from the threaded portion.
Distance from surrounding metal
• As metal around the sensor head may affect the sensing
performance, pay attention to the following points.
<Embedding of the sensor head in metal>
• Since the analog output may change if the sensor head
is completely embedded in metal, keep the minimum
distance specied in the table below.

Mutual interference
If several sensor heads are mounted close together, some specications may
not be satised. Therefore, proceed with the interference prevention function
enabled.
The interference prevention function eliminates interference among sensors by
alternating sensor oscillations. Contact our ofce for details about time charts etc.
If not using the interference prevention function, leave a distance more than the
values given below.
PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE Refer to p.1595 for general precautions.
Others
After turning on the power, wait 15 min. or more [20 min.for the
GP-XC3SE(-P) and GP-XC5SE(-P)] before usingthe product.
The power supply circuit is not stable immediately after the power is
turned on, and this may cause measurement values to be distorted. In
addition, note that there will also be a muting period of approx. 2 sec.

Correction coefcient
• Never use this product as a sensing device
for personnel protection.
• In case of using sensing devices for
personnel protection, use products which
meet laws and standards, such as OSHA,
ANSI or IEC etc., for personnel protection
applicable in each region or country.
