Make sure that the correct voltage value is adjusted. Max. 30 sensors can be connected together. The power supply is linked from one switch to the other via M12-connector.
  • Page 8 F3C-AA42-1 Distance settable Photoelectric Sensor F3C-AA42-3J Maintenance Normally the F3C doesn’t need any maintenance. Only the optical surfaces should be cleaned from time to time by using a soft cloth. Startup Operation A maximum of 300 ms is required from the time power is turned on until F3C is able to detect objects.
