Precautions on Safety
Indication and meaning for safe use
This instruction manual describes notification and/or waning with
indication and symbols as shown below for safe use of F3SJ. This
notification describes very important details for safety. You must
follow the description. Shown below are indication and symbols.

. . . . . Description applied to F3SJ-E models.

For users
The FS3J must be installed, set, and integrated into the
mechanical control system by a qualified technician who has
received the appropriate training. Failure to make correct
settings may prevent detection of people and result in serious
injury.
When changing parameters with a setting tool (F39-GWUM or
F39-MC21), the change must be made and the contents of the
change must be managed by the person in charge of the system.
Unintentional or mistaken parameter changes may prevent
detection of people and result in serious injury.
For machines
Do not use this sensor for machines that cannot be stopped by
electrical control. For example, do not use it for a pressing
machine that uses full-rotation clutch. Otherwise, the machine
may not stop before a person reaches the hazardous part,
resulting in serious injury.
Do not use the auxiliary output or external indicator output for
safety applications. Human body may not be detected when
F3SJ fails, resulting in serious injury.
For installation
Make sure to test the operation of the F3SJ after installation to
verify that the F3SJ operates as intended. Make sure to stop the
machine until the test is complete.
Unintended function settings may cause a person to go
undetected, resulting in serious injury.
Make sure to install the F3SJ at the safe distance from the
hazardous part of the equipment. Otherwise, the machine may
not stop before a person reaches the hazardous part, resulting
in serious injury.
Install a protective structure so that the hazardous part of a
machine can only be reached by passing through the sensor's
detection zone. Install the sensors so that part of the person is
always present in the detection zone when working in a
machine's hazardous zones. If a person is able to step into the
hazardous zone of a machine and remain behind the 's detection
zone, configure the system with an interlock function that
prevents the machine from being restarted. Otherwise it may
result in heavy injury.
Install the interlock reset switch in a location that provides a
clear view of the entire hazardous area and where it cannot be
activated from within the hazardous area.
The F3SJ cannot protect a person from a projectile exiting the
hazardous zone. Install protective cover(s) or fence(s).
When detection of an area has been disabled by the fixed
blanking function, provide a protective structure around the
entire area that will prevent a person from passing through it and
reaching the hazardous part of the machinery. Failure to do so
may prevent detection of people and result in serious injury.
After setting the fixed blanking function, be sure to confirm that
a test rod is detected within all areas that require detection.
Failure to do so may prevent detection of people and result in
serious injury.
When the fixed blanking function or the floating blanking
function is used, the diameter for the smallest detectable object
becomes larger. Be sure to use the diameter for the smallest
detectable object for the fixed blanking function or the floating
blanking function when calculating the safety distance. Failure
to do so may prevent the machinery from stopping before a
person reaches the hazardous part of the machinery, and result
in serious injury.
The muting and override functions disable the safety functions
of the device. Additional safety measures must be taken to
ensure safety while these functions are working.
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.
If you fail to use a product properly, it may
result in injuries or damage on property.
Inhibited
Indicates general inhibition.
