FAQ for E3S-AR36

What's the advantage of E3S series?
E3S: large, robust sensor for harsh environments. IP67 protection, metal housing options, long sensing range. Ideal for heavy industry, outdoor use, washdown areas.
What reflector should I use?
E39-R series reflectors. For 5m range: E39-R4 (large). For shorter range: E39-R1 (standard). Larger reflector = longer range.
Can this sensor detect transparent objects?
Standard retro-reflective: no. For transparent objects, use MSR (Mirror Set-up Recognition) model or through-beam sensor.
Is this sensor suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, IP67 rating provides weather protection. Protect from direct sunlight (can interfere with detection). Consider sun shield for direct sun exposure.
