This product has been developed / produced for industrial use only.
Make sure that the power supply is off while wiring and cascading.
Take care that if a voltage exceeding the rated range is applied, or if an AC
power supply is directly connected, the sensor may get burnt or damaged.
Take care that short-circuit of the load or wrong wiring may burn or dam-
age the sensor.
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.
Verify that the supply voltage variation is within the rating.
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.
In case noise generating equipment (switching regulator, inverter motor,
etc.) is used in the vicinity of this product, connect the frame ground (F.G.)
terminal of the equipment to an actual ground.

However, in order to reduce noise, make the wiring as short as possible.
Make sure that stress by forcible bend or pulling is not applied to the
sensor cable joint.
Take care that the sensor is not directly exposed to fluorescent lamp
from a rapid-starter lamp, a high frequency lighting device or sunlight
etc., as it may affect the sensing performance.
This product is suitable for indoor use only.
Avoid dust, dirt, and steam.
Take care that the product does not come in contact with oil, grease, or-
