PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE

Installation

• When mounting the sensor unit, use M3 screws with washers
(length: 25 mm
0.984 in
or longer) (not included with the product).
The tightening torque should not exceed 0.5 N∙m.

washers (length:
25 mm
longer)
(prepare separately)
• When using multiple sensors, mount them so that emitted
laser beams do not directly enter the beam receiving parts
of other sensors in order to avoid mutual interference. Also,
mount them so that spot beams irradiated on a workpiece do
not overlap with those of other sensors.
• Do not mount the sensors closely side by side to prevent heat
generation. Otherwise, the product temperature may exceed
the specified temperature due to heat generation.
• To prevent the product from falling due to loose screws, take
prevention measures such as using screws with washers
depending on the operating environment.
• Use the tightening torque of 0.5 N∙m or less when using the
simple mounting bracket MS-HG-01 (optional).

Power supply
• Verify that the supply voltage fluctuations are within the rating
when using the product. Note that applying a voltage greater than
the rated voltage or directly applying AC power will result in
damage or burning.
• To ensure performance, use the product at least 30 minutes
(warm-up time) after the power is turned ON.
• 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.
• Make sure that the power supply input satisfies the following
items.
1) T he power supply unit must be certified for use in your region
2) The output holding time of the power supply unit must be 20 ms or more
3) The rated output voltage and ripple (P-P) of the power supply unit must
be 24 V DC ±10% and 10% or lower, respectively.
4) The power supply unit with SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) or PELV
(Protective Extra Low Voltage) that comply with the EMC Directive must
be used (if the CE marking compliance is required).
5) The power supply unit with SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) or PELV
(Protective Extra Low Voltage) that comply with the EMC Regulations
must be used (if the UKCA marking compliance is required).
6) The power supply unit must support Class 2 (if cTÜVus marking
compliance is required).
• If surges occur, take countermeasures such as connecting a
surge absorber to the source of the surges.
• Do not turn OFF the power while conducting teaching or saving
settings such as the PRO mode setting. Doing so can damage
the internal memory of the product and may disable the product
from restarting.

Wiring
• Before wiring work, always turn the power OFF.
• Do not wire in parallel with a high-voltage line or power line, or
run through the same conduit. Doing so may result in
malfunctioning due to induction.
• Apply a load so that a current of 50 mA or more does not flow
through the control output line. Also avoid incorrect wiring such
as polarity connection error of the power supply. Failure to do so
may cause damage or burning.
• The overall length of the cable can be extended to 10 m
maximum with a cable size of 0.3 mm
cable to extend the analog wire line.
• Do not apply stress such as excessive bending or pulling to the
extracted part of a cable.

Operating environment

• This product is suitable for indoor use only.
• Do not install the sensor in the following locations.
• Locations subject to flammable gas, corrosive gas, or excessive dust
• Locations subject to dust, metal particles, or saline matter
• Atmospheres containing benzine, paint thinner, alcohol, or other organic
solvents or strong alkaline substances such as ammonia or caustic soda
• Locations subject to severe vibration or shock
• Locations subject to direct sunlight
• Locations subject to water, oil, or chemicals
• Locations where load is applied to the sensor
• Avoid using this product in environments where condensation
occurs due to sudden temperature change.
• Performance may not be satisfactory in a strong electromagnetic
field.
• Although it depends on the product type, lights from rapid start
type or high frequency lighting type fluorescent lamps, sunlight,
etc. may affect the sensing performance. Do not allow those
lights to directly enter the emitting / receiving surfaces of the
product.
• Keep the light emitting and receiving windows of this product
clean and free of water, oil, fingerprints, and other substances
that refract light as well as dust, grit, and other objects that
intercept light. When cleaning the surfaces, wipe them with a
lint-free soft cloth or lens cleaning paper.
• Make sure to turn OFF the power supply before cleaning the light
emitting and receiving windows of this product.
• This product is a precision device. Do not drop or otherwise
subject to shock. Doing so may cause product failure.
• Due to the detection principle, if there is a background object in a
specific region, a distance different from the actual distance may
be displayed. Confirm actual operations in an actual operating
environment.

Others
• This product has been developed / produced for industrial use only.
• Do not use this product outside the scope of the specifications.
Doing so may result in accidents or failures. It will also
significantly shorten the service life.
• There is a certain deviation in the directivity of this product. When
using this product, install the product using a mounting bracket or
similar fitting to allow the adjustment of beam axis.
• The internal memory (non-volatile memory) of this product has a
service life. Settings cannot be configured more than one million
times.
• Due to leak light around the detection point, the measurement
values may be affected if there exist objects with high reflectance
around the detecting point.
• If specular reflection light enters the beam receiving part, proper
measurement may not be possible. When the reflectance of a
detection object is high, be careful in installation.
• When exporting this product to the US, affix the provided FDA
certificate / identification label near the end of the cable.
• When this product becomes unusable or unnecessary, dispose of
the product properly as industrial waste in accordance with the
applicable law in the country.
