Photomicrosensors Technical Guide
Installation
The Photomicrosensors with Non-modulated Light (models that
begin with EE-SX or EE-SY) are built into the device being used
and are, therefore, not equipped to deal with interference from an
external light source. When using a Photomicrosensor with Non-
modulated Light in an area exposed to an incandescent light or
other external light interference, install so as to minimize the effects
of external light sources.
Mount the Photomicrosensors securely on a flat surface
Mount the Photomicrosensors with M3 screws, using a spring
washer to ensure the screws will not become loose. Use a
tightening force of 0.59 N·m max.
Note: Be sure to read the precautions for the model being used before
tightening the screws.
Install so that nothing can collide with the sensing section of the
Photomicrosensor. Damage to the sensing surface will cause
inferior performance.
Before using the Photomicrosensor, check to be sure that it has not
become loose due to vibration or shock.
Wiring
Surge
If there is surge in the power supply line, try connecting a capacitor
(with a capacitance of 0.1 to 1 μF) or a Zener diode (ZD in the
diagram below, with a rated voltage of 30 to 35 V). Use the Sensor
only after confirming that the surge has been removed.
When driving a small inductive load, such as a relay, wire as shown
below. (Be sure to connect a diode to absorb the reverse voltage.)
Separate the wiring for the Photomicrosensor from high-voltage
lines or power lines. If the wiring is routed in the same conduit or
duct as such lines, the Photomicrosensor may malfunction or may
be damaged by inductive interference.
Make sure that the connectors (either dedicated or commercially
available) are securely locked.
Voltage Output
A Sensor with an open-collector output can be connected to a
counter with a voltage input by connecting a resistor between the
power source and output. Select a resistor with reference to the
following example. The resistance of the resistor is generally 4.7 kΩ
and its wattage is 1/2 W for a supply voltage of 24 V and 1/4 W for
12 V.
<Example>
If resistance R = 4.7 kΩ for the EE-SX670, the input voltage at the
high level is as follows:
And the input voltage and load current at the low level are as
follows:
Input voltage VL 0.4 V (Residual voltage for 40-mA load current)
Note: Refer to the ratings of the Sensor for the residual voltage of the load
current.
Handling Methods when Wiring
Do not apply stress (external force) to the terminals as shown in the
figure below. Stress may damage the terminals.

Photomicrosensors Technical Guide
Design Considerations
Precautions for Photomicrosensors with Modulated Light
When using Photomicrosensors with Modulated Light (models that
begin with EE-SP), the design must take into account the effects of
power source and cable length. Photomicrosensors with Modulated
Light are more easily affected than Photomicrosensors with Non-
modulated Light (models that begin with EE-SX or EE-SY).
Photomicrosensors with Modulated Light that are easily
affected:
EE-SPX301/401, EE-SPY30@/40@,
E-SPZ301@/401@, EE-SPY31@/41@,
EE-SPX303/403, EE-SPW311/411,
EE-SPX74@/84@, EE-SPX@@@-W
Photomicrosensors with Modulated Light that are not easily
affected:
EE-SPX613, EE-SPY801/802
Reasons for Interference from Power and Cable Length on
Photomicrosensors with Modulated Light
As explained in Principles, an LED emitter is pulse-lighted to produce
modulated light. A large current momentarily flows to the
Photomicrosensor in sync with this pulse timing. This causes a
pulsating consumption current.
A photoelectric sensor incorporates a capacitor with sufficient
capacity, and is virtually unaffected by the pulse of the consumption
current. With a small Photomicrosensor, however, it is difficult to have
a capacitor with a sufficient capacity. Accordingly, when the cable
length is long or depending on the type of power source, it may
become impossible to keep up with the pulse of the consumption
current and operation may become unstable.
Countermeasures
<Adding a Capacitor>
Attach a capacitor of 10 μF min. (e.g., a film capacitor) to the wires
as close as possible to the Sensor. (Use a capacitor with a
dielectric strength that is at least twice the Sensor's power supply
voltage. Do not use tantalum capacitors. A short-circuit may cause
the capacitor to ignite due to the large current flow.)
<Cable Length>
Design the configuration so that the maximum total cable length for
the Photomicrosensor with Modulated Light is 2 m.
When using a cable longer than 2 m, attach a capacitor (e.g., an
aluminum electrolytic capacitor) with a capacity of approximately
10 μF to the wires as shown below. The distance between the
terminal and the capacitor must be within 2 m. Make sure that the
total cable length is no longer than 5 m. To use a cable length
longer than 5 m, use a PLC or other means to read the sensor
output and then transmit the signals using a PLC's
communications.
Regardless of whether a Photomicrosensor with Modulated Light or
a Photomicrosensor with Non-modulated Light is used, make sure
that the total combined length of the Photomicrosensor cable and
the connecting cable is less than 10 m.
Although cables are capable of being extended longer than 5 m,
performance is likely to be affected by noise interference from
adjacent cables and other devices. Voltage drops due to the
resistance of the cable material itself will also influence
performance. Therefore, factors, such as the difference in voltage
between the end of the cable and the sensor and noise levels, must
be given full consideration.

Photomicrosensors Technical Guide
<Countermeasures for Switching Power Supplies>
Take either of the following countermeasures as required if
connecting a Photomicrosensor with Modulated Light to a switching
power supply.
(1) Attach a capacitor of 10 μF min. to the wires as close as possible
to the Photomicrosensor. (Use a capacitor with a dielectric
strength that is at least twice the Photomicrosensor's power
supply voltage. Do not use tantalum capacitors. A short-circuit
may cause the capacitor to ignite due to the large current flow.)
(2) Connect to the 0-V line of the power source or connect to the
power source via a capacitor of approximately 0.47 μF to reduce
the impedance of the mounting base to prevent inductive noise
from entering the mounting base.
(3) Connect the noise filter terminal (neutral terminal to ACG) of the
switching power supply to the case (FG) and 0-V terminal of the
power supply.
<Countermeasures to Handle Inductive Noise>
(4) Insert a plastic insulator of approximately 10 mm between the
Sensor and the mounting base.
<Effects of Inductive Noise>
When there is inductive noise in the Sensor mounting frame
(metal), the output of the Sensor may be affected. In this case,
ensure that there is no electrical potential difference between the
Sensor 0-V terminal and the Sensor mounting frame, or put a 0.47-
μF capacitor between the 0-V terminal and the frame.
Precautions for Reflective Photomicrosensors
<Sensing Distance>
The Reflective Photomicrosensor model is based on sensing a
sheet of white paper with a reflection factor of 90%. The sensing
distance varies with the other conditions of the objects being
detected.
<Typical Example>
EE-SPY30/40 Series
<Background Objects>
Use the Sensor only after carefully studying the possibility of light
entering the Sensor due to light being reflected off background
objects.
Decrease reflection from the background object, e.g., by providing
a sufficient distance to the background or by using a black sponge
as the background.
The line connected as mentioned above should be
grounded or connected to the mounting base to
ensure stable operation. (Recommended by power
supply manufacturers.)
