Specifications
● This device has been developed / produced for industrial use only.
● This product uses an EEPROM. The EEPROM has a service life of one million setting operations.
● Do not use this product outside the range of the specifications. Risk of an accident and prod-
uct damage. There is also a risk of a noticeable reduction of service life.
● Deviations may occur in the judgment value at the bottom dead point. Do not use the bottom
dead point as a standard.
Power
● Verify that the supply voltage fluctuations are within the rating.
● If power is supplied from a commercial switching regulator, ensure that the frame ground
(F.G.) terminal of the power supply is connected to an actual ground.
● Do not use during the initial transient time after the power supply is switched ON.
Wiring
● Make sure that the power supply is OFF while performing wiring or expansion work on the
controller.
● Take care that short-circuit of the load or wrong wiring may burn or damage the product.
● After you have completed wiring work, check the wiring carefully before switching on the power.
● Do not wire in parallel with a high-voltage line or power line, or run through the same conduit.
Risk of malfunctioning due to induction.
● Do not apply stress such as excessive bending or pulling to the extracted part of a cable.
● When attaching the sensor head connection cable to this product, do not apply force to the product.
Usage environment
● This product is suitable for indoor use only.
● Avoid dust, dirt, and steam.
● Do not use this sensor in places where it may come in contact with corrosive gas, etc.
● Ensure that the product does not come into contact with organic solvents such as thinner.
● Ensure that the product does not come into contact with strong acid or alkaline.
● Ensure that the product does not come into contact with oil or grease.
● This product cannot be used in an environment containing flammable or explosive gases.
● Performance may not be satisfactory in a strong electromagnetic field.
● This product is a precision device. Do not drop or otherwise subject to shock. Risk of product damage.
● Ensure that strong horizontal force is not applied to the spindle. This may cause loss of accu-
racy and decreased durability.
Handling (Regular type)
● Never remove the standard rubber bellows except for replacement. Risk of product damage
due to infiltration by dust, water, or other contaminants.
● The standard rubber bellows is a consumable part. Replace it regularly as a preventive main-
tenance.The rubber bellows can deteriorate quickly depending on usage environment. If it
deteriorates, it generates cracks and other problems,causing dust and water to enter and re-
sulting in a malfunction.
Handling (Air-driven type)
● Mount a pressure-reducing valve to use the product within the allowable working pressure
range. Excessive pressure may result in failure or damage.
● Do not use air containing dust, water, oil, or other foreign matter. Doing so may result in elec-
tric shock or failure. To prevent such problems, take appropriate measures such as installing
air filters or mist separators.
● Do not use air containing foreign objects (such as carbon powder or dust), water, or oil. Do-
ing so may result in electric shock or failure. To prevent such problems, take appropriate
measures such as mounting air filters or mist separators.
