Safety Sensor
MANUFACTURER'S STATEMENT
Read this document and this Operation Manual carefully before use, to ensure proper operation of this Optex sensor.
Failure to read this Operation Manual may cause improper sensor operation and may result in serious injury or death.
This product is a non-contact activating switch intended for mounting on the header of an automatic door.
Do not use it for any other applications; otherwise proper operation and safety cannot be guaranteed.
Cautions :
1. Follow the instructions (especially Note ) in this Operation Manual when installing and adjusting the sensor.
2. When setting the sensor's area pattern, make sure there is no traffic around the installation site.
3. Before turning the power on, check the wiring to prevent damage or malfunction of equipment that is connected to the sensor.
4. Do not disassemble, rebuild or repair the sensor yourself; otherwise it may cause electric shock or breakdown of the sensor.
5. Only use the sensor as specified in the supplied instructions.
6. Be sure to install the sensor in accordance with the local laws and standards of your country.
7. Before leaving the jobsite, be sure this equipment is operating properly and instruct the building owner/operator on proper
operation of the door and this sensor.

INSTALLATION
Be sure to install the sensor where it will not be directly sprayed with rainwater.
1 1. Affix the Mounting Template to the mounting surface.
2. Drill two mounting holes ( 1/8” or 3.2mm).
3. To carry through the cable to the header, drill A ( 3/8” or 10mm).
4. After drilling the holes, remove the Mounting Template.
