EQ-500  
Multi-voltage Amplifier Built-in  
ADJUSTABLE RANGE REFLECTIVE  
PHOTOELECTRIC SENSOR  
Long sensing range 2.5 m  
Multi-voltage  
Not affected by background objects  
EQ50  
Because it can function with 24 to 240 V AC and 12 to 240 V  
DC, almost any power supply anywhere in the world will do.  
Because the sensor doesn’t detect objects outside the preset  
sensing field by using the 2-segment photodiode adjustable  
range system, it will not malfunction even if someone walks  
behind the sensing object or machines or conveyors are in  
the background.  
EQ51Ⅺ  
Impervious to variations color or angle  
Introducing the new DC-voltage type  
equipped with BGS / FGS function  
Due to its advanced optical system, the sensor is not affected  
by variations in the object’s angle or gloss compared to  
conventional sensors.  
Moreover, as the difference in sensing range between black  
and white varies by only approx. 5 % (Note), sensing can be  
performed at a somewhat constant distance even if the  
sensing object is black or white.  
We’ve added a DC-voltage type with NPN and PNP  
transistor outputs all in one sensor. Its BGS / FGS function  
controls any background effects for more stable sensing.  
Refer to p.196 for the BGS / FGS functions.  
Note: Example of the difference in sensing range between  
black non-glossy paper (Lightness: 5) and white non-  
glossy paper when the setting distance is set at 2 m  
6.562 ft.

BGS / FGS FUNCTIONS MAKE EVEN THE MOST CHALLENGING SETTINGS POSSIBLE!  
The BGS function is best suited for the following case  
Background not present  
BGS (Background suppression) function  
When object and background are  
separated  
The sensor judges that an object is present when light is received at position A of  
the light-receiving element (2-segment element). This is useful if the object and  
background are far apart. Not affected if the background color changes or  
someone passes behind the conveyor.  
OFF  
Light received at element  
B or light not received  
ON  
Light received at  
element A  
Element A  
Element B  
Moving object

Setting distance  
The FGS function is best suited for the following case  
Background present  
FGS (Foreground suppression) function  
When object and background are close  
together  
When the object is glossy or uneven  
The sensor judges that no object is present when light is received at position B of  
the light receiving element (2-segment element)(The conveyor is detected). This  
function is useful if the object and the background are close together or if the  
object is glossy or uneven. However, sensing is impossible if there is no  
background (conveyor, etc.)..  
OFF in this condition only  
Object absent  
ON in all other conditions

PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE  
When a specular body is present below the sensor, use the  
sensor by tilting it slightly upwards to avoid faulty operation.  
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.

This product is not easily affected by the reflected light intensity  
since this sensor is the adjustable range reflective type. When  
the reflected light intensity is remarkably low, the sensing range  
may be affected. In that case, mount the sensor, while checking  
light-up of the stable indicator (green).  
Care must be taken regarding the sensor mounting direction with  
respect to the object’s direction of movement.  
The mounting screws of the terminal cover and display cover  
should certainly be tightened to maintain water-resistance; the  
tightening torque of the screws should be 0.3 to 0.5 Nm.

If a specular body is present in the background, faulty operation  
may be caused due to a small change in the angle of the  
background body. In that case, install the sensor at an inclination  
and confirm the operation with the actual sensing object.  
Note that the detection may be unstable depending on the  
mounting conditions or the sensing object to be used.  
In the state that this product is mounted, be sure to check the  
operation with the actual sensing object to be used.

PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE  
Wiring  
Part description  
Make sure that the power supply is off while wiring.  
Stability indicator (Green)  
Check all wiring before applying power since incorrect wiring may  
damage the internal circuit. Also, carefully tighten the terminal  
screws so that the wires of adjacent terminals do not touch.  
Distance adjuster (2-turn)  
OFF-delay timer adjuster (Note 2)  
The mounting hole for the terminal cover fixing screws inclines  
70 degrees to the terminal cover, as shown in the figure below.  
To avoid damaging this product or screw, take care when  
tightening or loosening a screw.

for details.

Screwdriver  
Operation mode switch  
Multi-voltage type (L-ON / D-ON mode only)  
To maintain water-resistance, the cable should have an outer  
diameter between "9 to "11 mm "0.354 to "0.433 in with a  
smooth covering material that allows the attached conduit  
connector to be securely tightened; the tightening torque of the  
screw should be of 1.5 to 2.0 Nm.  
Operation mode switch  
Description  
Verify that the supply voltage variation is within the rating.  
Detection-ON mode is obtained when the switch  
is turned fully clockwise (L side).  
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.  
Detection-OFF mode is obtained when the switch  
is turned fully counterclockwise (D side).  
In case noise generating equipment (switching regulator, inverter  
motor, etc.) is used in the vicinity of this sensor, connect the  
frame ground (F.G.) terminal of the equipment to an actual ground.  
Note: Turn the operation mode switch gradually and lightly with the attached  
screwdriver. Turning with excessive strength will cause damage to the  
adjuster.  
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.  
If an external surge voltage exceeding 4 kV is impressed (DC-  
voltage type: 1 kV), the internal circuit will be damaged, and a  
surge suppressing element should be used.

PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE  
Distance adjustment  
Timer function (EQ-5T only)  
EQ-5T incorporates an OFF-delay timer, which is useful when  
the response of the connected device is slow, etc., and an  
ON-delay timer, which is useful for detecting objects that move  
slowly, for example.  
For DC-voltage type, be sure to set the BGS / FGS function before  
distance adjustment. If the setting is done after the distance ad-  
justment, the sensing area is changed.  
The OFF-delay and ON-delay timers can be used simultaneously.  
For DC-voltage type, set the DIP switch for the timer mode to  
‘Timer ON’ side.  
Turn the distance adjuster gradually and lightly with the attached  
adjusting screwdriver. Turning with excessive strength will cause  
damage to the adjuster.

Since the EQ-500 series uses a 2-segment photodiode as its  
receiving element, and sensing is done based on the difference  
in the incident beam angle of the reflected beam from the  
sensing object, the output and the operation indicator (orange)  
operate according to the object distance.  
Furthermore, the stability indicator (green) shows the margin of  
the setting distance.

Take care that the sensor is not directly exposed to fluorescent  
light from a rapid-starter lamp or a high frequency lighting device,  
as it may affect the sensing performance.  
The optimum position to stably detect objects is  
the center point between a and b .  
Do not use during the initial transient time (50 ms) after the  
power supply is switched on.  
This sensor is suitable for indoor use only.  
Its distance adjuster is mechanically operated. Do not drop; avoid  
other shocks.  
Do not use this sensor in places having excessive vapor, dust,  
etc., or where it may come in direct contact with water, or  
corrosive gas.  
Take care that the sensor does not come in direct contact with  
water, oil, grease or organic solvents, such as, thinner, etc.  
This sensor cannot be used in an environment containing  
inflammable or explosive gases.  
Never disassemble or modify the sensor.
