Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Background Suppression (BGS) mode ignores objects beyond the set detection distance, while Foreground Suppression (FGS) mode ignores objects closer than the set distance. The CX-442-P allows programming of either mode based on application requirements.
The CX-442-P can detect objects as small as 2mm (0.079 inches) away from the sensor face, making it suitable for precise detection applications.
With its IP67 rating, the CX-442-P is dust-tight and waterproof, making it suitable for harsh industrial environments, though direct exposure to extreme weather conditions should be avoided.
The sensor operates on 12-24 VDC power supply with a maximum operating current of 0.1A, making it compatible with standard industrial power systems.
