11. Hints On Correct Use

To extend the cable length, use a cable with at least a 0.3 mm2 crosssection area. Limit the length of cable extension to no more than 100 m. (To connect several units, contact Keyence for further information.) Do not wire the amplifier line along with power lines or high-tension lines, or otherwise the sensor may malfunction or receive damage due to noise. When using a commercially available switching regulator, ground the frame ground terminal and ground terminal. Do not use the FS series outdoors, or in a place where extraneous light can enter the light receiving surface directly. Due to the individual dispersion of characteristics and the difference in fiber unit model, the maximum sensing distance or displayed value of all the units are not the same. If the sensor is used in S-APC mode for a long time, the LED indicators will be imposed with a heavy load. In that case, the sensor will be automatically set to ACC mode where the current consumption of the sensor for light emission will be constant, and END APC will be displayed. The sensor can be continuously used in this case. Replace the sensor, however, if highly precise detection is required.

Rotary Pressure Port

The unit incorporates a pressure port that rotates 180, which directly connects to pipes in any direction. The pressure port is of non-slip structure. Therefore, the connection angle will not shift due to vibration. Furthermore, in the case of horizontal mounting, the unit does not require any L-shaped fittings, thus saving the space behind the rear panel. (Patent pending)

Zero-shift point Picking up chip components Valve open

Vacuum break

The zero-shift function forces the set pressure value before suction to zero so that only the change of suction is detected. This function cancels the influence of fluctuation in base pressure and the change of temperature, thus making it possible to detect the displacement only. A single negative pressure model as well as a single compound pressure model makes it possible to detect both suction and vacuum break pressures.

Threshold value

AP-C/V models incorporate the A-1 mode (a dedicated suction check mode). In order to make stable suction checks, it is necessary to make a zero shift at a point as close as possible to the starting port of suction. AP-C/V models incorporate a zero-shift timer which can set in 1-ms increments the time between the input of the zero-shift signal and the moment a zero shift is executed.
