Inductive Sensors
Precautions
Mounting
Do not tighten the nut with excessive force. A washer must be used
with the nut.
Note: The table below shows the tightening torques for part A and part B nuts.
In the previous examples, the nut is on the sensor head side (part B) and
hence the tightening torque for part B applies. If this nut is in part A, the
tightening torque for part A applies instead.
Influence of Surrounding Metal
When mounting the E2E within a metal panel, ensure that the clea-
rances given in the following table are maintained. Failure to main-
tain these distances may cause deterioration in the performance of
the sensor.
