Precautions
Design
Effects of Surrounding Metal
Provide a minimum distance between the Sensor and the
surrounding metal as shown in the table below.
Effects of Surrounding Metal (Unit: mm)
Mutual Interference
If more than one Proximity Sensor is installed face to face or
in parallel, ensure that the distances between two Units adja-
cent to each other are the same as or larger than the corre-
sponding values shown in the following table.
Installation
Do not tighten the nut with excessive force. A washer must be
used with the nut.
Note: The table below shows the value of tightening torques when using
toothed washers.

of all possible uses of the products, nor is it intended to imply that the
uses listed may be suitable for the products:
• Outdoor use, uses involving potential chemical contamination or
electrical interference, or conditions or uses not described in this
document.
• Nuclear energy control systems, combustion systems, railroad sys-
tems, aviation systems, medical equipment, amusement machines,
vehicles, safety equipment, and installations subject to separate in-
dustry or government regulations.
• Systems, machines, and equipment that could present a risk to life
or property.

must correlate it to actual application requirements. Actual perfor-
mance is subject to the OMRON Warranty and Limitations of Liability.
CHANGE IN SPECIFICATIONS
Product specifications and accessories may be changed at any time
based on improvements and other reasons.
It is our practice to change model numbers when published ratings or
features are changed, or when significant construction changes are
made. However, some specifications of the product may be changed
without any notice. When in doubt, special model numbers may be as-
signed to fix or establish key specifications for your application on
your request. Please consult with your OMRON representative at any
time to confirm actual specifications of purchased products.
DIMENSIONS AND WEIGHTS
Dimensions and weights are nominal and are not to be used for man-
ufacturing purposes, even when tolerances are shown.
