Mounting
Mounting the Sensor
When mounting a Sensor, do not tap it with a hammer or otherwise
subject it to excessive shock. This will weaken water resistance and
may damage the Sensor. If the Sensor is being secured with bolts,
observe the allowable tightening torque. Some models require the
use of toothed washers.
For details, refer to the mounting precautions in
Precautions for
Correct Use
in individual product information.
Mounting/Removing Using DIN Track
(Example for E2CY)
<Mounting>
(1)Insert the front of the Sensor into the special Mounting Bracket
(included) or DIN Track.
(2)Press the rear of the Sensor into the special Mounting Bracket or
DIN Track.
•
When mounting the side of the Sensor using the special Mounting
Bracket, first secure the Amplifier Unit to the special Mounting
Bracket, and then mount the special Mounting Bracket with M3
screws and flat washers with a diameter of 6 mm maximum.
<Removing>
•
While pressing the Amplifier Unit in the direction of (3), lift the fiber
plug in the direction of (4) for easy removal without a screwdriver.
Set Distance
The sensing distance may vary due to fluctuations in temperature and
voltage. When mounting the Sensor, it is recommend that installation
be based on the set distance.
