CAUTIONS
●Make sure that the power supply is OFF while wiring. Also wrong wiring cause damage of the sensor.
●If power is supplied from a commercial switching regulator, ensure that the frame
ground (F.G.) terminal of the power supply is connected to an actual ground.
●Do not use during the initial transient time (approx. 50ms) after the power supply is switched ON.
●Extension up to total 30m is possible with a 0.3mm2, or more of conductor cross-section
area cable. However, in order to reduce noise, make the wiring as short as possible.
●Do not run the wires together with high-voltage lines or power lines or put them
in the same raceway. This can cause malfunction due to induction.
●In case a surge is generated from power supply, take countermeasures such
as connecting a surge absorber to the origin of the surge.
●In case air bubbles are drawn into the detection part, take care that it may take
some time for detection to stabilize, or detection may even become unstable.
●When liquid or oil remains or there is scratch on the detection surface or the
attachment, It may not work properly.
