E32 E32 Sensing Distance with Fiber-Optic Cables Through-Beam Fibers * Standard object measurements were made with the E3X-DA-N and the E3X-NA set to Standard mode. The size of the standard object is the same as the fiber core diameter or the lens diameter for models with a lens. * Minimum sensing object is shown in parentheses below the standard object (using the same column in the following table). For the E3X-DAN, minimum sensing object size was determined when it received light that exceeded a light incident value of 1000 (set to digital incident level display). * The ! indicates models that customers can cut to length for their application. Models without this mark are pre-cut by the factory to maintain their respective specifications.
