Effects of Surrounding Metal
Shielded types:
Shielded types allow direct installation on metal plates in an em-
bedded manner without performance change. A minimum dis-
tance of 3sn is required between the active surface and a metallic
surface in front of the device. (Fig. 1).
For SUS shielded types the following minimum distances are re-
quired to avoid performance change (see Fig.2 and table below):
Fig.1: Shielded type (except SUS)
Fig.2: Shielded SUS type
Non-shielded types:
Installation of non-shielded types in metal require the minimum
distances according to Fig. 3.

AND (serial connection)
The Sensors connected together must satisfy the
following conditions:
iL + (N-1) x i = Upper-limit of control output of each
Sensor
VS - N x VR = Load operating voltage
N =
No. of Sensors
VR =
Residual voltage of each Sensor
VS =
Supply voltage
i =
Current consumption of the Sensor
iL =
Load current
If the MY Relay, which operate at 24 VDC, is used as a
load for example, a maximum of two Proximity Sensors
can be connected to the load.
OR (parallel connection)
The number of Sensors connected in parallel varies
with the Proximity Sensor model.
