When using as a safety device for a press machine in Japan
When using as a safety device for a press machine in Japan, strictly observe the points below and
use correctly.
● Establish the safe distance based on the maximum stop time of the press machine.
● Start the press machine and verify that the slide stops when the light beam is blocked.
● Do not expose the receiver to direct sunlight.
● If you are using a rise invalidate circuit (muting function) with a function that invalidates slide emer-
gency stop when the light beam is blocked while the slide rises, verify that the safety device acti-
vates when the slide descends and is only invalidated when the slide rises.
● Adjust the emitter and receiver to ensure that no parts of the body enter the danger zone from
above the highest beam channel or from under the lowest beam channel due to the nature of the
work or the body position during work.

chines” (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare Publication 930 No. 11, September 30, 2015).
