Safety Precautions
Be sure to read the precautions for all models in the website at: http//www.ia.omron.com/.
Indication and Meaning for Safe Use
This product is not designed or rated for direct-
ly or indirectly ensuring safety of persons.
Do not use it for such a purpose.
Never use this product with an AC power sup-
ply. Otherwise, explosion may result.
The following precautions must be observed to ensure safe operation.
1. Do not use the product in an environment where flammable or
explosive gas is present.
2. Do not attempt to disassemble, repair, or modify the product.
3. Power Supply Voltage
Do not use a voltage that exceeds the rated operating voltage
range. Applying a voltage that is higher than the operating voltage
range may result in damage or burnout.
4. Incorrect Wiring
Be sure that the power supply polarity and other wiring is correct.
Incorrect wiring may cause explosion or burnout.
5. Connection without a Load
If the power supply is connected directly without a load, the
internal elements may explode or burn. Be sure to insert a load
when connecting the power supply.
6. Dispose of this product as industrial waste.
UL Certification
This product is certified for UL standards, but the certification is not
applicable to metal piping to the conduit section.
For UL applications, use a certified cable grip.
Operating Environment
1. Do not install the product in the following locations.
Doing so may result in product failure or malfunction.
(1) Outdoor locations directly subject to sunlight, rain, snow,
water droplets, or oil.
(2) Locations subject to atmospheres with chemical vapors, in
particular solvents and acids.
(3) Locations subject to corrosive gases.
(4) Locations subject to shocks or vibration.
2. The Sensor may malfunction if used near ultrasonic cleaning
equipment, high-frequency equipment, transceivers, cellular
phones, inverters, or other devices that generate a high-
frequency electric field. Please refer to the Precautions for
Correct Use of Photoelectric Sensors on the OMRON website
(www.ia.omron.com) for typical measures.
3. Laying the Proximity Sensor wiring in the same conduit or duct as
high-voltage wires or power lines may result in incorrect operation
and damage due to induction. Wire the Sensor using a separate
conduit or independent conduit.
4. Cleaning
Never use thinner or other solvents. Otherwise, the product
surface may be dissolved.
5. Do not subject the Sensor to strong shock. Otherwise, the Sensor
Head may be damaged.
Power ON
The Sensor is ready to sense an object within 300 ms after turning the
power ON. If the load and Sensor are connected to different power
supplies, always turn ON the Sensor power first.
Power OFF
Output pulses may occur when the power supply is turned OFF. Turn
OFF the power supply to the load or load line first.
Effects of Surrounding Metals
When the Proximity Sensor is embedded in metal, make sure that the
clearances given in the following table are maintained.
(Unit: mm)
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation
which, if not avoided, will result in minor or
moderate injury, or may result in serious
injury or death. Additionally there may be
significant property damage.
