Note: If the target is a nonferrous metal, the oper ating distance of the proximity sensor decreases. Ho wev er , with a piece of foil measuring
about 0.01 mm (0.0004 in) in thickness, the detecting distance is equivalent to that with a ferrous metal. Note that the proximity
sensor cannot detect extremely thin evaporated films and non-conductive targets.

EFFECTS OF SURROUNDING METALS
When mounting a proximity sensor flush with a metallic
panel, be sure to provide a minimum distance as shown
in the table below. This prevents the sensor from being
effected by metallic objects other than the target.
