E3X-MDA Super Dual Fiber Sensors 5
Ordering Information: Fiber Units
■ Through-beam Fiber Units
Note 1. Indicates models that allow free cutting. Models without this mark do not allow free cutting.
2. The size of standard sensing object is the same as the fiber core diameter (lens diameter for models with lens).
3. The values for the minimum sensing object are representative values that indicate values obtained in standard mode with the sensing dis-
tance and sensitivity set to optimum values.

Conventional Fiber
Flexible Fiber
Conventional fiber uses just one core and
one cladding section. Bending the fiber
may break it or reduce the light intensity.
Flexible fiber contains multiple independent cores
all surrounded by cladding. The fiber can be bent
without breaking or reducing the light intensity.
Core
Cladding
Flexible fiber models are indicated by an
"R" at the end of the model number.
Flexible fiber contains multiple cores.
These cores are all surrounded by cladding,
giving a minimum bending radius of 1 mm.
The fiber can be bent at right angles without
affecting the light intensity. Handle it just like
any other cable.
