Smart Fiber Amplifier Units
E3NX-FA
A Smart Fiber Amplifier Unit with
Ultra-stable Detection and
Ultra-easy Setup
Improved basic performance with 1.5 times the sensing distance and
approx. 1/10th the minimum sensing object.*
Ultra-easy setup with Smart Tuning with a light intensity adjustment
range expanded 20 times to 40,000:1. Optimum stable detection
achieved with light intensity adjustment even for saturated incident light.
White on black display characters for high visibility.
Solution Viewer that shows the passing time and difference in incident
levels and Change Finder that allows you to see display values even
for fast workpieces.
*Compared to the E3X-HD.

Safety Precautions
Be sure to read the precautions for all models in the website at: http://www.ia.omron.com/.
Warning Indications
Meaning of Product Safety Symbols
This product is not designed or rated for ensuring
safety of persons either directly or indirectly.
Do not use it for such purposes.
Do not use the product with voltage in excess of the
rated voltage.
Excess voltage may result in malfunction or fire.
Never use the product with an AC power supply.
Otherwise, explosion may result.
The following precautions must be observed to ensure safe operation
of the Amplifier Unit. Doing so may cause damage or fire.
1. Do not install the product in the following locations.
Locations subject to direct sunlight
Locations subject to condensation due to high humidity
Locations subject to corrosive gas
Locations subject to vibration or mechanical shocks exceeding the
rated values
Locations subject to exposure to water, oil, chemicals
Locations subject to stream
Locations subjected to strong magnetic field or electric field
2. Do not use the product in environments subject to flammable or
explosive gases.
3. Do not use the product in any atmosphere or environment that
exceeds the ratings.
4. To secure the safety of operation and maintenance, do not install
the product close to high-voltage devices and power devices.
5. High-voltage lines and power lines must be wired separately from
the product. Wiring them together or placing them in the same duct
may cause induction, resulting in malfunction or damage.
6. Do not apply any load exceeding the ratings. Otherwise, damage
or fire may result.
7. Do not short the load. Otherwise, damage or fire may result.
8. Connect the load correctly.
9. Do not miswire such as the polarity of the power supply.
10.To use this device as connecting with each other, be sure to
connect with the same power supply and turn ON the power
simultaneously. Using a separate power supply will influence the
functions when connecting the devices to use them.
11.Do not use the product if the case is damaged.
12.Burn injury may occur. The product surface temperature rises
depending on application conditions, such as the ambient
temperature and the power supply voltage. Attention must be paid
during operation or cleaning.
13.When setting the sensor, be sure to check safety such as by
stopping the equipment.
14.Be sure to turn off the power supply before connecting or
disconnecting wires.
15.Do not attempt to disassemble, repair, or modify the product in any
way.
16.When disposing of the product, treat it as industrial waste.
17.Do not use the Sensor in water, rainfall, or outdoors.
18.Use the product in the IP54 enclosure.
19.
UL Standard Certification (Applicable Models: E3NX-FA11/21/41/51
Only)
Only the sensors with Enhanced UL Certification Mark are certified
by UL. They are intended to be supplied by a "Class 2 circuit". When
used in United States and Canada, Please use the same Class 2
source for input and output.The overcurrent protection current rating
is 2A max. They were evaluated as Open type and shall be installed
within a enclosure.
Warning level
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, will result in minor or
moderate injury, or may result in serious
injury or death. Additionally, there may be
significant property damage.
Precautions
for Safe Use
Supplementary comments on what to do or
avoid doing, to use the product safely.
Precautions
for Correct
Use
Supplementary comments on what to do or
avoid doing, to prevent failure to operate,
malfunction or undesirable effect on product
performance.
General prohibition
Indicates the instructions of unspecified
prohibited action.
Caution, explosion
Indicates the possibility of explosion under
specific conditions.
Caution, fire
Indicates the possibility of fire under specific
conditions.
WARNING
WARNING
Precautions for Safe Use
E3NX-FA
18
1. Be sure to mount the unit to the DIN track until it clicks.
2. When using the Amplifier Units with Wire-saving Connectors,
attach the protective stickers (provided with E3X-CN-series
Connectors) on the unused power pins to prevent electrical shock
and short circuiting.
When using the Amplifier Units with Connectors for
Communications Units, attach the protective caps (provided with
E3NW-series Sensor Communications Unit).
3. The length for the cable extension must be 30 m or less (or less
than 10 m for S-mark certified models). Be sure to use a cable of
at least 0.3 mm2 for extension. The power voltage must be 24 to
30 V when connecting amplifier units with extension cable and
wire-saving connector.
4. Do not apply the forces on the cord exceeding the following limits:
Pull: 40N; torque: 0.1N·m; pressure: 20N; bending: 29.4N
5. Do not apply excessive force such as tension, compression or
torsion to the Amplifier Unit with the Fiber Unit fixed to the Amplifier
Unit.
6. Always keep the protective cover in place when using the Amplifier
Unit. Not doing so may cause malfunction.
7. It may take time until the received light intensity and measured
value become stable immediately after the power is turned on
depending on use environment.
8. The product is ready to operate 200 ms after the power supply is
turned ON.
9. The Mobile Console E3X-MC11, E3X-MC11-SV2 and E3X-MC11-
S cannot be connected.
10.The mutual interference prevention function does not work when
in combination with E3C/E2C/E3X.
11.If the unit receives excessive sensor light, the mutual interference
prevention function may not work properly, resulting in malfunction
of the unit. In such case, increase the threshold.
12.Standard models and Advanced models
The Sensor Communication Unit E3X-DRT21-S, E3X-CRT, E3X-
ECT and E3NW cannot be connected.
Model for Sensor Communication Unit (E3NX-FA0)
The Sensor Communication Unit E3NW can be connected.
E3X-DRT21-S, E3X-CRT, E3X-ECT cannot be connected.
13.If you notice an abnormal condition such as a strange odor,
extreme heating of the unit, or smoke immediately stop using the
product, turn off the power, and consult your dealer.
14.Do not use thinner, benzene, acetone, and lamp oil for cleaning.
