E39-F11 Sleeve Bender
• The bending radius of the stainless steel tube should be as
large as possible. The smaller the bending radius becomes,
the shorter the sensing distance will be.
• Insert the tip of the
stainless steel tube to the
Sleeve Bender and bend
the stainless steel tube
slowly along the curve of
the Sleeve Bender (refer
to the gure).

Heat-resistant Fiber Units (E32-D51 and E32-T51)
• The bers of these Units cannot be extended using the
E39- F10 Fiber Connector.
• The maximum allowable temperature for continuous
operation with these Units is 130°C. It is 150°C for short-
term use.
E32-T14 and E32-G14
These Units may enter the light-ON
state if there are reecting objects at
the ends of the lenses. In this case,
attach the black stickers provided to
the ends of the lenses.

Wafer Sensors (E32-L25(A))
• To ensure correct performance, insert the ber with a white
line into the emitter-side port of the Amplier Unit.
E32-T16 and E32-T16P
Slit provided
E32-T16’s sensing head
Example To use the slit provided, peel off the
backing sheet, align it with the edges
of the sensing surface, and attach it
to the sensing head. Use the slit in
applications where saturation occurs
(i.e., changes in light intensity cannot
be obtained) due to short sensing
distances.
E32-M21
Separate the 4 bers by distances sufcient to prevent
interference.
Vacuum-resistant Fiber Units (E32-V)
Although Flanges, Fiber Units on the vacuum side, and Lens
Units have been cleaned, as an extra precaution, clean these
products with alcohol before use in high-vacuum environments
to ensure that they are properly degreased.
Liquid-level Detection Sensors (E32-D82F)
• Secure the Fiber Unit using the unbendable section.
Otherwise, the liquid-level detection position may be
displaced.
• For applications in hazardous environments, install the Fiber
Unit in the hazardous environment but install the Amplier
Unit in a safe environment.
Liquid-level Detection Sensors: Tube-mounting Models
• Ensure that the tube is not deformed when using a band to
secure the Fiber Unit.
• Drops of water, bubbles, or haze inside the tube may cause
malfunctions.
• Adjustment E32-G14
The sensing distance is short, making the incident light
intensity large. This makes it impossible to teach without a
workpiece. Perform teaching with and without a workpiece.
Liquid-level (E32-D82F) Detection Position
The liquid-level detection
Liquid-level
detection position
5.2±2 mm (from the end of the
uororesin section)
position is at a distance of
5.2±2 mm from the end of the
uororesin section.
(Refer to the diagram on the
right.)
The liquid-level detection
po-sition varies with the surface tension of the liquid and the
degree of wetness at the Fiber Unit’s detection position.
• Other Considerations
Liquid Level (E32-D82F)
• Operation may become unstable in the following cases:
① Bubbles stick to the cone of the sensing head.
② Solute is deposited on the cone of the sensing head.
③ The liquid has a high viscosity.
• There are some liquids, such as milky white liquids, for
which detection is not possible.
• Do not let the end of the uororesin section bump into
another object. Damage to, or deformation of, the sensing
head may result in unstable operation.
Heat-resistant Fiber Units (E32-D81R, E32-D61, and
E32-D73)
The pitch of the emission-side and reception-side ber-
insertion ports varies with the Amplier Unit. Be sure to use an
appropriate Fiber Unit.
