Mounting the Sensor
To avoid intermittent operation, do not
mount the sensors to surfaces that may
shift or be exposed to excessive vibration.
ATTENTION
Securely mount the sensor on a firm, stable surface or
support. Once securely mounted, the sensor may be wired as
indicated in the wiring diagrams.
Maintenance
When cleaning the face of the sensor, do
not use aggressive or abrasive materials
which could reduce the operating range
and accuracy.
ATTENTION
Use a dry, soft cloth for cleaning the lens area.
Wiring Diagrams
Quick disconnect connection is shown in the following diagrams. Pin numbers correspond to male connectors on the sensor.
