Features
Equipped with an Industry’s First Power Tuning (Optimum Light Setting) Function
The E3X-DA-S/MDA features a Power Tuning function that optimizes
power at the press of a button.
This function easily but securely resolves saturation due to short
sensing distances or insufficient incident light due to long sensing
distances.
In addition, the response speed does not change as mode selection
has tuned the power.

Adoption of Newly Developed 4-Element LEDs and an APC (Auto Power Control) Circuit
Achieves Long-term Reliable Detection at the Highest Level in the Industry
The long-term reliable detection at the highest level in the industry is
achieved with the innovative APC circuit whose performance is
proved by E3X-DA-N series and the newly developed high-power
LEDs (4-element type) to ensure super stable, long-term LED
performance.
Stable performance is always available without the ON/OFF setting of
an APC circuit.

OMRON’s Innovative Wire-saving Connector Inherited from the E3X-DA-N
The amplifier units with connectors supply the power to slave connectors
via a master connector. This offers three following advantages.
1. Greatly reduced wiring work
2. Improved space usability due to the unnecessity of relay
connectors
3. Simple stock management due to the unnecessity of
distinction between master and slave for amplifiers
