sensing range
NOTE
The minimum detectable absorption which can be read from the diagram applies
after the teach-in process with clean ambient conditions. The minimum detectable
absorption increases with the level of contamination. Clean the front screens of the
sender and receiver regularly, then perform a teach-in process.
