Specifications table for model GS-8S
ItemPerformance characteristics
Applicable AmplifierGA-2, GA-2R, GA-2D
Max. Operation Distance4 mm 0.157 in
(Note) The maximum operation distance stands for the maximum distance for which the sensor can detect the standard sensing object.
Stable Sensing Range0 to 2 mm 0 to 0.079 in
(Note) The stable sensing range stands for the sensing range for which the sensor can stably detect the standard sensing object even if there is an ambient temperature drift and/or supply voltage fluctuation.
