- MCD-19_EN Download the CAD data (DXF / Parasolid / STEP / IGES)
Application
- Remaining change detection for POS, automatic vending machines, automatic ticket vending machines
- Remaining change detection for automatic payment machines at parking lots or highway tollgates
- Remaining tokens detection for token exchangers
- Remaining coins detection for ATMs
Features
- Detection distance of 19 mm for 1-yen coins (aluminum).
- Optimum for detecting all coin materials including aluminum, copper, and copper alloys.
- Not affected by residual dust in the coin receptacles.
- Metal fittings can be directly attached to the unit to adapt it to any mounting requirement.
- Thin profile means the unit can be mounted in a space as little as 14mm high, under the coin trays.
- A locking connector securely prevents disconnection of connectors caused by wire routing problems or vibration.
- The unit is equipped with a LED display for clear indication of operation status.
International Standards
- Our products do not have overseas safety regulations such as CE mark, UL standard, EN standard etc.
- Products is compliant to the RoHS directive.

Precautions During Use
Interference from Nearby Metallic Objects
When there are metal objects near to the sensor’s detection distance, to avoid malfunctions, use the sensor while maintaining distance from the metal objects specified as follows.
Diagram for Reference, of Coin Tray
Other
- When two or more sensors are used, separate them at 180 mm centers to avoid mutual interference.
- An abrupt temperature change such as blowing with heated air can cause malfunctions. Ensure correct operation.
- Remove any coins from the detection surface before power ON or resetting inputs.
- For approximately 2 seconds from the power ON or input reset, the surrounding environment is checked. During this period, any coins on the detection surface can affect the correct detection distance.Normally,removing any coins left on the detection surface and waiting for 2 seconds can recover normal operation.If the detection distance is not correctly obtained, however, perform an input reset.
- Ferromagnetic materials such as ferrite near the sensor can cause malfunctions.
- LED turns ON when there is detection with or without output.
- For mounting, use M3 screws. Always use plain washers to tighten the case and use a torque of 0.5 Nm or less. The screws can be oriented either up or down. Washers up to 10 mm diameter can be used on the detection side, up to 8 mm diameter on the opposite side can be used.
- Any coin approaching at a very slow (reference speed: 3 mm/s or lower) cannot be detected.
- Mechanical stress on the detection surface can cause malfunctions. Ensure correct operation.
- For other precautions during use, refer to the General Precautions for proximity sensors.
