PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE
Others
• Since the sensor is intended for
use inside machines, no special
countermeasures have been taken
against extraneous light. Take care
that extraneous light is not directly
incident on the beam receiving section.
• Do not use during the initial transient
time (50 ms) after the power supply is
switched on.
Mounting
• When xing the sensor with screws, use M3 screws and
the tightening torque should not exceed the values given
below.
Further, use small, round type plain washers (ø6 mm
ø0.236 in).

Cable extension
• Cable extension is possible up to an overall length of
100 m 328.084 ft with a 0.3 mm2, or more, cable.
However, since a voltage drop shall occur due to the
cable extension, ensure that the power supply voltage
at the end of the cable attached to the sensor or at the
sensor terminals is within the rating.

All models
Make sure to connect terminals correctly as
the sensor does not incorporate a reverse
polarity protection circuit.
Further, the output is not incorporated with a
short-circuit protection circuit. Do not connect
it directly to a power supply or a capacitive
load. Faulty wiring may result in damage.
• Never use this product as a sensing device
for personnel protection.
• In case of using sensing devices for
personnel protection, use products which
meet laws and standards, such as OSHA,
ANSI or IEC etc., for personnel protection
applicable in each region or country.
Refer to p.1458~ for general precautions.
