Cautions during Use

• Follow instructions in ‘Cautions during Use’. Otherwise, It may cause unexpected accidents.
• When connecting an inductive load such as DC relay or solenoid valve to the output,remove surge by using diodes or varistors.
• Use the product after 0.5 sec of the power input.
• When using a separate power supply for the sensor and load, supply power to the sensor first.
• 10-30 VDC power supply should be insulated and limited voltage/current or Class 2,SELV power supply device.
• Wire as short as possible and keep it away from high voltage lines or power lines to prevent surge and inductive noise.
• When using switching mode power supply (SMPS), ground F.G. terminal and connect a condenser between 0V and F.G. terminal to remove noise.
• When using a sensor with a noise-generating equipment (e.g., switching regulator, inverter, and servo motor), ground F.G. terminal of the equipment.
• This unit may be used in the following environments.
  • Indoors (in the environment condition rated in ‘Specifications’)
  • Altitude max. 2,000 m
  • Pollution degree 3
  • Installation category II

Cautions during Installation

• Be sure to install this product by following the usage environment, location, and specified ratings. Consider the listed conditions below.
  • Installation environment and background (reflected light)
  • Sensing distance and sensing target
  • Direction of target’s movement
  • Feature data
• When installing multiple sensors closely, it may result in malfunction due to mutual interference.
• For installation, tighten the screw with a torque of 0.5 N m. Mount the brackets correctly to prevent the twisting of the sensor’s optical axis.
• Do not impact with a hard object or bend the cable excessively. That could decrease the product’s water resistance.
• Use this product after the test. Check whether the indicator works appropriately for the positions of the detectable object

Setting Operation Mode

• Be sure to set the mode before power-on.
• Use the offered adjustment screwdriver. Do NOT turn with excessive force to prevent product damage.

Operation Timing Chart

Light ON mode

In Dark ON mode, the waveforms are reversed.
Operation indicator and transistor output differ from the sensing method.

Connections

Circuit

OCP (over current protection), SCP (short circuit protection)
If short-circuit the control output terminal or supply current over the rated specification, normal control signal is not output due to the protection circuit

Sensitivity Adjustment

• Set the adjuster for stable Light ON area, minimizing the effect of the installation environment.
• Use the offered adjustment screwdriver. Do NOT turn with excessive force to prevent product damage.
• The steps below are based on Light ON mode.
