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.
25!s & 0.02%F.S.
Conforming to
EMC Directive
The unique sensing technology developed by our SUNX team has made possible
an ultra-high speed minute displacement measurement function, essential for
high-precision processes, that boasts the highest resolution in the industry.
1
We’ve realized a 25 ¨s (40,000
times / sec.) ultra high sampling speed
With a 25 !s 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.
They possess a 0.02 % F.S. resolution
f or highl y accurate measurement
With the industry’s highest resolution, 0.02 % F.S. (Note), they can
perform high-accuracy measurements of micro-displacements.
(Average number of samples: 64)
Note: GP-XC3SE and GP-XC5SE Resolution: 0.04 %F.S.
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. Specifications corresponding to each material (stainless
steel, iron, aluminum) has already been inputted in the controller enabling the
easy selection of the setting that is most suitable for the particular material used.

controller, a GP-XCCJ7 extension cable
(optional) can be used up to a 10 m
32.808 ft total length.
One-touch connector hook up
The sensor head and the controller connection
is a simple one-touch connector type.
Replacement of sensor heads possible
As a result of damage or other mishap
rendering maintenance necessary, you
can replace only the sensor head leaving
the controller as it is.

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 in orange. The display
position and color change allows for
accurate visibility even for momentary
changes.
Digital input display
enabling easy setting
Its dual digital display enables numerical
setting while verifying setting items for each
mode. Even when sensing, it enables the
verification of the main settings.

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 specification (within 0.3 % F.S.) is
satisfied by performing zero-adjustment and span adjustment
when in contact using the scaling function.

The tightening torque should be under the value given below.
Make sure to use an M3 or smaller set screw having a cup-point.
Mounting sensor head The sensing range is specified for the standard sensing object
[stainless steel (SUS304) / iron [Cold rolled carbon steel (SPCC)],
6060t 1 mm 2.3622.362t 0.039 in]. For sensing metals
other than the standard sensing objects, use the correction
coefficient stated below as a guideline. Verify with the actual
sensor before using.
Sensing range
If several sensor heads are mounted close together, some
specifications may not be satisfied. Therefore, proceed with the
interference prevention function enabled.
The interference prevention function eliminates interference
among sensors by alternating sensor oscillations. Contact our
office for details about time charts etc.
If not using the interference prevention function, leave a distance
more than the values given below.
As metal around the sensor may affect the sensing performance,
pay attention to the following points.
Since the analog output may change if the sensor head is
completely embedded in metal, keep the minimum distance
specified in the table below.

Notes: 1) Without nut. If a nut is installed, the dimension
will be 23.5 mm or more.
2) Mount such that the nuts do not protrude from
the threaded portion.
This product is not a safety sensor. Its use is not
intended or designed to protect life and prevent body
injury or property damage from dangerous parts of
machinery. It is a normal object detection sensor.
PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE
The sensor head and the controller are adjusted in order to
conform to the default specification linearity.
In the event of replacing sensor heads, input the sensor heads
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).

Make sure that the power supply is off while connecting the
sensor head to the controller.
Connection of sensor head and controller Use the attached controller mounting frame (ATA4811) and mount
the controller onto the panel by fastening the frames screws.
Refer to the DIMENSIONS (P.14) for the panel cut-out dimension.
The mountable panel thickness is 1 to 5 mm 0.039 to 0.197 in.
However, if using a controller communication unit or BCD output unit,
make the panel thickness between 1 and 2.5 mm 0.039 and 0.098 in.
Mounting controller
Do not use during the initial transient time (2 sec. approx.) after
the power supply is switched on.
This sensor is suitable for indoor use only.
Avoid dust, dirt, and steam.
Take care that the product does not come in direct contact with
water, oil, grease, or organic solvents, such as, thinner, etc.
Others
Make sure that the power supply is off while wiring.
Take care that wrong wiring will damage the sensor head or the controller.
Verify that the supply voltage variation is within the rating.
If power is supplied from a commercial switching regulator, ensure
that the frame ground (F.G.) terminal of the power supply is
connected to an actual ground.
In case noise generating equipment (switching regulator, inverter
motor, etc.) is used in the vicinity of the sensor head or the
controller, connect the frame ground (F.G.) terminal of the
equipment to an actual ground.
Do not run the wires together with high-voltage lines or power
lines or put them in the same raceway. This can cause malfunction
due to induction.
Make sure to use an isolation transformer for the power supply. It
an auto-transformer (single winding transformer) is used, this
product or the power supply may get damaged.
In case a surge is generated in the used power supply, connect a
surge absorber to the supply and absorb the surge.
The analog voltage output does not incorporate a short-circuit
protection circuit. Do not directly connect a power supply or a
capacitive load.
Make sure that stress by forcible bend or pulling is not applied
directly to the sensor cable joint.
If using separate power supplies for multiple controllers, use the
same V or 0 V supply for all.
Connector for sensor
head connection
Hold the sensor heads connector by the outer ring and insert it
into the connector provided on the controller for sensor head
connection. Insert till you hear a click sound.
When removing, hold the connector outer ring and pull it straight
out.
When using a sensor head extension cable, turn the sensor head
cable length selection switch side to the controllers sensor head
connector to 3 m 7 m 9.843 ft22.966 ft with the power
supply is off. After switching, reintroduce the power supply.
The coaxial connector for the extension cable is connected to the
0 V power supply. If installing to a metal plate or similar, insulate
the connector from the surrounding metal.
