MA Motion Sensor (AMA1, AMB1, 2, 3)

MOTION SENSOR

(AREA REFLECTIVE TYPE)

MA MOTION

SENSOR Series

FEATURES

1. Now even more miniature.

The new thin type cuts 35% from the

thickness of the previous short type.

Device installing is now easier than ever.

Existing short type

W10 × H20 × D19.5 mm

W.394 × H.787 × D.768 inch

⇓

Thin short type

W10 × H20 × D12.7 mm

W.394 × H.787 × D.500 inch

*“W” and “H” are detection value measurements.

2. Certain detection unaffected by the

reﬂectance of the object

The sensor can provide stable

detection that is not affected by the

condition (color or material of the

clothing) or parts (skin, hair, etc.) of the

object being monitored. (Reﬂectance

18% to 90%). Excellent performance

even when the detection surface is dirty.

3. Only connecting DC power supply

for operating

Built-in oscillation circuit type obviates

the hitherto existing need for start signal

input.

4. Use in adjacent positions is

possible

These sensors can be located in

adjacent positions, because the timing of

the external trigger signals can be

adjusted so that the beam frequency of

each adjacent sensor will not interfere

with the other.

5. Battery drive possible

By applying longer interval for the trigger

signal, you can reduce the total power

consumption.

6. Can be used with a number of

different supply voltages.

1) The 5V DC type (4.5 to 6.5V DC)

2) The free-ranging power type (6.5 to

27V DC)

They support the DC power supplies of

electronic products and equipment in

general.

*The thin short type is only available for 5V DC.

7. The open collector output system

makes for easy load drive.

These sensors provide a continuous

output during detection because the

output system makes it easy to drive the

load.

They achieve an output performance of

30V, Built-in oscillation circuit type:

100 mA, External triggering type: 10 mA

(Thin short type: 100 mA). Also, the thin

short type is available in a PNP open

collector type in addition to a NPN open

collector type.

APPLICATIONS

1. Water-based product market

• Automatic lighting of wash basin units

• Toilets

• Automatic water ﬂow from faucets

2. Stores and ﬁnancial instructions

• Automatic doors

• Automatic lighting

• Cash dispensing machines

• Automatic teller machines

• Visitor detecting sensors

3. Amusement market

• Automatic lighting for game display

4. Medical ﬁeld

• Non-contact switch

5. Others

• Automatic ticket gates

• Seat-taking sensors

• Detection of passengers getting on and

off a bus

What is area reﬂective type?

The sensor emits a ray of light toward the

human body and detects the distance and

determine whether there is a person within

a given distance of the sensor. If the

sensor detects a person, it sets an output

non-contact switch to ON.
