E2EM
E2EM-X@C@ DC 3-Wire Models
*1. The response frequency is an average value.
Measurement conditions are as follows: standard sensing object, a distance of twice the standard sensing object, and a set distance of half the sensing distance.
*2. When using an M8 Model at an ambient temperature between 70 and 85°C, supply 10 to 30 VDC to the Sensor and make sure that the Sensor has a control output
of 100 mA maximum.
