Model MDS-5T-D7 2-wire Inductive Sensor NEW 

Application

  • Single or level detection of steel or SUS pachinko balls
  • Single or level detection of medals and coins
  • Magnetic metal detection

Features

  • A small flat inductive sensor (detects from its upper surface) with a detection surface width of 16 mm, case thickness of 6 mm, and a detection distance of 5 mm.
  • Wiring can be saved with a 2-wire system.
  • A key way is provided on the side of the case for easy 'one-touch' mounting.
  • It can also be mounted using the optional (sold separately) mounting bracket.

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.

* Please consult about "change of specification" and "request of specification" of the product.

Precautions During Use

Influence by Surrounding Metals

Avoid metal in the surroundings that is less than 30mm and 10mm on the back and 10mm on the sides of the inductive switch, or the detection distance may increase and malfunctions may occur.
Please contact us in advance if there is surrounding metal on two or more sides.

Mutual Interference

When a number identical sensors are used, observe the minimum values shown in the figure on the below to prevent mutual interference.
(The different frequency model type has “B” at the end of its model designation.)

Precautions When Installing

Note that inductive switches cannot be mounted on metal surfaces.

Others

  • When detecting pachinko balls one by one, keep the ball pitch at least 30 mm apart.
    In addition, the range of output operation time varies depending on the passing position, passing distance, passing speed, ball material, and angle (medals only) of pachinko balls and medals.
  • Do not drop a detector such as a pachinko ball or medal directly on the detection surface.
    The internal ferrite core may be damaged by impact, and the sensor may deteriorate or fail.
    Also, do not directly hit or pass a detector such as a pachinko ball or medal against the detection surface of the sensor.
    Be sure to install an indirect materials (plastic, etc.) between the detector and the detection surface of the sensor for detection.
  • For other precautions, refer to "General Precautions" for inductive sensors.

Typical Detection Distance

The detection distance varies significantly depending on the material of the detection target and plating type.
Please use with a margin in the detection distance at about 70% or less of the measured detection distance.
