※1: The response frequency is the average value. The standard sensing target is used and the width is set as 2 times of the standard
sensing target, 1/2 of the sensing distance for the distance.
※2: Before using non-polarity type, check the condition of connected divice because residual voltage is 5V.
※The ' ' of model name is for power type. 'D' is 12-24VDC, 'X' is non-polarity 12-24VDC.
※The last 'V' of model name is for the model with oil-resistance reinforced cable.
※Environment resistance is rated at no freezing or condensation.

When using DC 2-wire type proximity sensor, the load must be connected, otherwise internal components may be
damaged. The load can be connected to either wire.

In case of the load current is small Please make the current on proximity sensor smaller than
the return current of load by connecting a bleeder resistor
● DC 2-wire type in parallel.
※W value of Bleeder resistor should be bigger for proper

Mutual-interference & Influence by surrounding metals

When several proximity sensors are mounted close to one another a malfunction of the may be caused due to mutual
interference. Therefore, be sure to keep a minimum distance between the two sensors as below chart indicates.

Parallel B

Face to Face

When sensors are mounted on metallic panel, it is required to protect the sensors from being affected by any metallic
object except target. Therefore, be sure to provide a minimum distance as below chart indicates.
