Function and features
This sensor detects metals without contact and indicates their presence by provid-
ing a switched signal. Nominal sensing range (Sn) 10 mm; operating distance (Sa)
0 ... 8,1 mm (values based on standard measurement with mild steel; a shorter
sensing range for other metals).
Installation
Mount the sensor by means of the mount-
ing bracket provided.
Distance between sensing face and
bracket 10 mm.
Non-flush installation.
Open space around the sensing face when mounted in metal:

Electrical connection
Disconnect power before connecting the sensor. Connection strictly to the
indications on the type label.
Note: insert a miniature fuse according to the technical data sheet, if specified.
Recommendation: check the unit for reliable function after a short cirucit.
Programming of the output function of 2-wire-DC types (quadronorm) by wiring:
normally open: 1/3 = L+; 2/4 = L-
normally closed: 2/4 = L+; 1/3 = L-
Programming of the output function of
AC/DC types: These units are provided
in N.O. function. Open the wire link for
programming the N.C. function.
Operation
Check the safe functioning of the sensor. The LED is lit when the output is
switched. The operation of the sensor is maintenance-free.
For perfect functioning make sure that:
the sensing face and the open space are kept free of metal deposits and
foreign bodies, particularly for installation with the sensing face facing upwards;
EMC: The unit conforms to the requirements of EN 60947-5-2.
