Precautionsfor Safe Use
(1) Do not use or store the product in the following locations:
•Locationssubject to water or oil
•Outdooror locations subject to direct sunlight
•Locationssubject to dust or corrosive gases
(particularly sulfurizing gases, ammonia, etc.)
•Locationssubject to rapid temperature changes
•Locationsprone to icing and dew condensation
•Locationssubject to excessive vibration or shock
•Locationssubject to rain and wind damage
•Locationssubject to influence of static electricity and noise
•Locationssubject to bugs and small animals
(2) Use and store the product in a location where the ambient temperature and
humidityarewithin the specified ranges. If applicable, provide forced cooling.
(3) Mount the product in the correct direction for installation.
(4) Check terminal polarity when wiring and wire all connections correctly.
(5) Do not wire the input and output terminals incorrectly.
(6)
Usethepower supply voltage within the range of the specifications and rated values.
(7) Make sure the crimp terminals for wiring are of the specified size.
(8) Do not connect anything to terminals that are not being used.
(9) The alarm output function is a function for the output of an alarm when the set
thresholdvalueis exceeded. Do not use this function for control, etc.
(10)Inorder to prevent inductive noise, wire the lines connected to the product
separatelyfrompower lines carrying high voltages or currents. Also, do not wire in
parallelwithor on the same cables as power lines. Other measures for reducing
noiseareto separate from ducts including noisy lines.
(11) Donotinstall the product near equipment that generates high frequencies or surges.
(12)Whendiscarding the product, properly dispose of it as industrial waste.
(13)Makesure the LCD and the LEDs for output indicators operate correctly.
Dependingonthe application environment, the indicators and other plastic parts
maywearprematurely and become difficult to see. Check and replace these parts
regularly.
(14)Themaximum terminal temperature is 80°C. Use wires with a heat resistance of
80°Cminto wire the terminals.
(15)Don'tuse because it may be damaged inside the product when the product fall by
mistake.
(16)Besure to use power terminals carefully, because power supply terminals have
hazardousvoltage.
(17)Confirmthe wiring the input and output terminals correctly before power is supplied.
(18)Donot wire anything to the release holes.
(19)Donot tilt or twist a flat-blade screwdriver while it is inserted into a release hole on
theterminalblock. The terminal block may be damaged.
(20)Inserta flat-blade screwdriver into the release holes at an angle. The terminal block
maybedamaged if you insert the screwdriver straight in.
(21)Donot allow the flat-blade screwdriver to fall out while it is inserted into a release
hole.
(22)Theterminal block may be damaged if you insert a flat-blade screwdriver in the
releaseholewith excessive force. When inserting a flat-blade screwdriver into the
releaseholes,operate with a force of 15·N or less.
(23)Donot bend a wire past its natural bending radius or pull on it with excessive force.
Doingsomay cause the wire disconnection.
(24)Donot insert more than one wire into each terminal insertion hole.
(25)Toprevent wiring materials from smoking or ignition, use the wiring materials given
inthefollowing table.
Precautionsfor Correct Use
Observethefollowing operating methods to prevent failure and malfunction.
(1) Use the power supply voltage, input power, and other power supplies and
transformerswithsuitable capacities and rated outputs.
(2) When cleaning the product, do not use thinners or solvents. Use commercial
alcohol.
(3) Confirm that wire does not stick up after wiring of stranded cable.
(4) In case of passage wiring, install these by 10 A per 1 terminal because when
productsareconnected more than one in parallel, quite many electric currents to be
calledoff.
(5) The terminal block may be damaged if specialized tool is not used. Use a
recommendedflat-bladescrewdriver to inserted into a release hole on the terminal
block.
(6) Do not apply excessive force to bend or pull the communications cables, and do not
placeheavyobjects on the cables. Doing so will damage the cables.
(7) Refer to the status information of the product on the data link communication and
refertothe received data only in case of no errors occur with the product.
(8) Use a power supply that will reach the rated voltage within 1 second after the power
isturnedON.
(9) Do not install the product near equipment that generates high frequencies or
surges.
(10)Readthis manual carefully before using the product.
(11)Installproduct so that the load doesn't span the product body.
(12)Onlya professional with an understanding of electricity and electric devices must
handleit.
(13)Donot install the product close contact with the heating element.
(14)Duringperiodic inspection, installation of an additional sensor, or adjustment of
sensorposition,use the product after ensuring that correct operation can be
performed.
(15)Donot use the product as a safety apparatus, or for the rescue of human lives.
(26)Usethe wire given in this manual.
(27)Whenwiring, wire by enough length.
(28)Followthe directions indicated in the manual for connecting EtherNet/IPTM or the
cable.Itmay result in communication failure.
(29)IfEtherNet/IPTM tag data links (cyclic communications) are used with a repeating
hub,thecommunications load on the network will increase. This will increase
collisionsandmay prevent stable communications. Do not use repeating hubs on
networkswheretag data links are used.
UseanEthernet switch instead.
(30)Donot continue to use the product if the front surface peels.
(31)Usethe cable within the length that is rated in the specification requirements for
thewiringbetween the sensor and the product. As for the requirements on the
cabledistance,refer to K6PM User's Manual (Cat. No. H231)
(32)Donot connect or disconnect the cables between the sensor and the product while
powerisbeing supplied. Doing so may result in malfunction or failure of the product.
(33) Donotplace heavy objects on the cables between the sensor and the product, and
donotapply excessive force to bend or pull the cables. Doing so may cause a failure.
(34)Whenusing the predicted arrival time function, do not place measurement objects
withdifferentheat release tendencies in the sensor segment, so that the arrival
estimationiscorrectly measured. Also, make sure that the ambient temperature
doesnotsuddenly change due to the cooling fans and the opening and closing of
thecontrolpanel door.
(35)Donot install the product at a location where the sensor unit may be shaken due to
vibrationsorimpact.
(36)Theautomatic setting of the alarm temperature threshold function automatically
calculatesthethreshold value based on the past temperature data up to the time
whentheCalculation Button was clicked. If the installation environment or
operationstatechanges due to operation of the cooling fans or opening and closing
ofthecontrol panel door, click the Calculation Button again to reset the threshold
value.Toset the threshold value in more detail, we recommend setting it for each
segmentindividually,instead of using the automatic setting of the alarm temperature
thresholdfunction.
(37)Usethis product inside the control panel to prevent external noise.
(38)Alwaysuse OMRON-designated sensors.

Reference
Relationship between the Measurement Surface and Measured Distance
In order to measure the temperature more correctly, as shown in the gure below, install the infrared thermal
sensor at a distance where the measurement object can be captured as a large image, as far as possible at the
center of the eld of view.
The relationship between the sensor visual eld width and the distance from the infrared thermal sensor to the
measurement object is as shown below.
Sensor visual eld width = 2 × (Distance from infrared thermal sensor up to the measurement object)
Example: When the distance from the infrared thermal sensor up to the measurement object is 100 mm
90°
Sensor visual field width: 200 mm
