NOTICE
Specifications correspond to measured value without load. With the analog variants, specifications may
differ due to the load on the analog output.
3.3 Working Range
The sensor’s working range is influenced by two parameters:
• Object remission
• Ambient light
The following values become typical in Precision mode (default):
Ambient light
Remission 100lux 5,000 lux 20,000 lux 100,000lux
White (90% remission) 50…10,000 mm 50…10,000 mm 50…10,000 mm 50…10,000 mm
Gray (18% remission) 50…10,000 mm 50…10,000 mm 50…10,000 mm 50…5,000 mm
Black (6% remission) 50…8,000 mm 50…6,500 mm 50…5,500 mm 50…3,000 mm
