Proximity sensors measure the distance to the object without physical contact. The E2K-X4MY1 5M is one of such devices designed for a variety of applications. This article discusses the E2K-X4MY1 5M’s application field and working principle.

Applications of E2K-X4MY1 5M

The E2K-X4MY1 5M is suitable for measuring distances to objects in a wide range of application fields, which include industrial automation, medical equipment, robotics, agribusiness, and mobile applications. This device is well-suited for use in challenging industrial environments featuring dust, moisture, heat, and vibration.

Working Principle of E2K-X4MY1 5M

E2K-X4MY1 5M utilizes a time-of-flight (TOF) technology to sense objects and measure the distance to them. TOF technology works by emitting a pulse of light from a light source and waiting for it to bounce back. The returning pulse is measured and the distance to the object is calculated by measuring the time it takes for the pulse to travel. The accuracy of this method relies on the clarity of the path taken by the light pulse, the refractive index of air, and the strength of the signal reflecting back.

Optical Attribute of E2K-X4MY1 5M

The E2K-X4MY1 5M is designed to work in both dark and illuminated environments. The device is fitted with an LED light source that is capable of generating an eye-safe pulse light at 5m. It also contains an 8-bit image CMOS detector which can detect the returned pulse even in low light, up to a sensitivity level of 18dB. Other optical attributes of the E2K-X4MY1 5M include an adjustable launch pulse duration, adjustable range to different objects, ability to detect objects between 2m to 5m away, and an excellent Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR).

Support for a Variety of Industrial Protocols

The E2K-X4MY1 5M also supports the integration of a variety of industrial protocols, such as CAN, Ethernet, I3C, USB, and Modbus. Additionally, the device offers a linear output type for a variety of analog or digital output, and its signal interface can be switched between industrial protocol and I3C.
