200-206/MQ-FW 0.6.10 12:46 Page 1 TRIGONOMETRIC AREA REFLECTIVE OPTICAL FIBER PHOTOELECTRIC SENSORS MQ-FW Series Ratchet mechanism with the threeturn adjuster (equipped with the indicator) * The three-turn adjuster allows fine adjustment of the detectable distance. * The ratchet mechanism prevents the adjuster from breakage caused by excessive turning. * Equipped with an indicator which is visible at a glance. Temporary setting of the detectable distance is possible. * The adjuster LED equipped facilitates setting of the detectable distance. FEATURES Area reflective beam, fiber type, secures detection of any object * Detection little influenced by the color, material and surface conditions objects is secured. * The tip of the fiber is resistant against dirt. * Little influenced by the background beyond the detectable distance. Detection is possible under adverse conditions. Detection principles The detection is determined by comparing the light intensities input into the diodes PD1 and PD2. Light-ON/Dark-ON select switch Detection position may be checked at a glance because of the visible red spot. High serviceability * Mountable on the DIN rail. Side by side mounting with labor-saving is possible. Adjuster LED Light Indicator LED (OPE) Indicator Distance adjuster (Ratchet mechanism with the three-turn adjuster) MQ-F amplifier unit Quick mountring DIN rail * The connector terminal structure facilitates simple wiring. Since the differences between light intensity levels of two photo diodes decide the detection through the triangulation range verification system, detection under slight variation of the distance is secured. The light-ON and Dark-ON modes are quickly switched. (equipped with the switch) High speed detection at 1 ms The detection is possible to 500 times per sec., thus being applicable for high speed devices. Common use for operating voltages of 12 to 24 V DC Widely applicable over a range of 9.6 V to 30 V DC. APPLICATIONS Position detection of silicon wafers, detection of packing on the cap and check of leg pins on electronic parts.

Distance adjustment for the area reflective type 1) Facing the fiber unit in the detection direction, temporarily fasten it. 2) Under the condition that no detectable object exists, gradually turn the distance adjuster counterclockwise from the maximum position (H) to find the position where the light indicator LED (OPE.) goes out. When the LED goes out even if the adjuster is in the max. position (H), select the H position. 3) Place a detectable target in the detection position, and gradually turn the distance adjuster clockwise from the minimum position (L) to find the position where the light indicator LED (OPE.) comes on. When the LED turns ON even if the adjuster is in the min. position (L), select the L position. 4) Set the adjuster at the middle point between the positions selected in step 2) and step 3). 5) Securely fasten the head of the fiber unit. During fastening, take care to secure it to an extent that it is not displayed when vibration or shock is applied. Note: Though the distance range is little Adjuster LED Indicator For the ambient conditions, wiring and Light indicator LED (OPE.) Distance adjuster influenced by the colors of objects, the detectable distance may vary for considerably reflective objects such as mirrors, glass and other mirror reflective objects. 2. Movement direction of detectable target Take care for the mounting direction of the fiber unit according to the movement direction of an object. operation of the fiber unit, refer to the cautions for operation. 203 200-206/MQ-FW 0.6.10 12:47 Page 5 Accessories MC connector Connector with MC cabled connector (Cable length: 2 m 6.562 ft.)

To remove the amplifier unit, bend the click D of the mountable blacket toward outside. 2. When vertically mounting the DIN rail, face the fiber side upward. Attachment and Detachment of Fiber Plug * To attach the fiber plug on the fiber plug Push the fiber plug in the arrow direction as far as the upper and lower clicks of the fiber plug are securely engaged on the upper and lower areas A of the amplifier unit. 204 * To detach the fiber plug from the amplifier unit Lightly push the upper and lower areas A of the amplifier unit with a screwdriver or similar to disengage the click area of the fiber plug. Then, pull out the fiber plug. Note: Take care not to excessively push the area A, or the click area of the fiber plug will be sometimes broken. 200-206/MQ-FW 0.6.10 12:47 Page 6 CAUTIONS 1. Environmental conditions * Amplifier unit 1) The ambient temperature shall be kept within a range of -25C to +55C -13F to 131F. 2) The operational voltage shall be kept within a range from 9.6 V to 30 V DC (including ripple P-P). 3) Use a surge absorber as the internal circuit may be damaged if external surge voltages exceed 500 V [(1.2T50) s single polarity full-wave voltage]. 4) Use a load relay with a rated operating voltage of 12 V DC or 24 V DC. The voltage applied to the load relay is the operating voltage of the photoelectric sensor minus the internal voltage drop (max. 1.2 V). Voltage fluctuation should be taken into account. * Fiber unit 1) The ambient illuminance shall be 3,000 lux or less at the receiver under an incandescent lamp, and 10,000 lux or less at the receiver under sunlight. 2) The unit shall not be used at the site where much steam, dust or corrosive gas is suspended, water or oil splashes directly over the unit, or organic solvent adheres to the unit. 2. Wiring * Amplifier unit 1) Check all wiring before applying power since incorrect wiring may damage the internal circuit. 2) Keep in mind that the output area is broken if a load of 100 mA or more is connected. 3) Keep in mind that the induction noises cause malfunction and breakage if the wiring to the photoelectric sensor runs with the high voltage cables and the power cable. 4) When crimping the terminals, use the following tool made by Molex. Crimping JHTR1719C Insertion J5800-001 Pulling-out J5800-002 Here, the terminal is 5005 TL made by Molex and the receptacle is 502503R1. 5) When extending the cable, use a cable of 0.3 mm2 (.0005 in2) or more and limit its length within 100 m 328 ft. 6) When connecting the receptacle to the plug of the photoelectric sensor, properly connect them and securely push in the plug as far as the lock mechanism is activated. The construction to prevent reverse connection is provided. To remove the receptacle, release the lock mechanism and pull out the plug with the receptacle held by hand. 7) It is recommended to attach an auxiliary dust protective cover to the receptacle. 8) When the commercially available switching regulator is used, ground FG (frame ground terminal) and G (ground terminal). Otherwise, the switching noise of power supply may sometimes cause malfunction. In this case, care shall be taken. 3. Handling of the fiber unit 1) The fiber unit shall be securely equipped on the amplifier. 2) Do not tighten with an excessive strength. Apply a torque of 8 N*m{78.4 kgf*cm 68.048 lbf*in} or less tightening. 3) Do not apply a pulling force of 3 kg or more to the fiber unit. 4) Make the bending curvature of the fiber as large as possible. If the curvature is small, the transmission factor is reduced. So, check this during actual operation. (The curvature shall be R25 mm or more). 5) Largely bend the fiber and do not bent it at the root. 6) Do not compress the fiber or apply a load to it. 205
