Specifications
*1
When several units are connected, the operating ambient temperature varies depending
on the number of units to be connected. When connecting several units, be sure to
mount the units on the DIN rail (mounted on a metal plate), and keep the output current
within 20 mA.
When 1 to 2 units are connected:
-10 to +55 °C,
When 3 to 10 units are connected:
-10 to +50 °C,
When 11 to 16 units are connected: -10 to +45 °C
When using the 2-output type, count one unit as two units.
*2
When double is set, the response time is twice longer. When using the 2-output type, be
careful with the number of units to be connected.
*3
When using the HIGH SPEED mode, the power consumption increases by 160 mW (7 mA).
Error Displays and Corrective Actions
Hints On Correct Use
• Do not wire the amplifier line along with power lines or high-tension lines, other-
wise the sensor may malfunction or receive damage due to noise.
• When using a commercially available switching regulator, ground the frame
ground terminal and ground terminal.
• Do not use the FS series outdoors, or in a place where extraneous light can
enter the light-receiving surface directly.
• Due to the individual dispersion of characteristics and the difference in fiber
unit model, the maximum sensing distance or displayed value of all the units
are not the same.
• If the sensor is used in S-APC mode for a long time, the LED indicators will be imposed
with a heavy load. In that case, the sensor will be automatically set to ACC mode where
the current consumption of the sensor for light emission will be constant, and “END
APC” will be displayed. The sensor can be continuously used in this case. Replace the
sensor, however, if highly precise detection is required.
WARRANTY
KEYENCE products are strictly factory-inspected. However, in the event of a failure,
contact your nearest KEYENCE office with details of the failure.
1. WARRANTY PERIOD
The warranty period shall be for one year from the date that the product has been
delivered to the location specified by the purchaser.
2. WARRANTY SCOPE
(1) If a failure attributable to KEYENCE occurs within the abovementioned warranty
period, we will repair the product, free of charge. However, the following cases shall
be excluded from the warranty scope.
• Any failure resulting from improper conditions, improper environments, improper
handling, or improper usage other than described in the instruction manual, the
user’s manual, or the specifications specifically arranged between the purchaser
and KEYENCE.
• Any failure resulting from factors other than a defect of our product, such as the
purchaser’s equipment or the design of the purchaser’s software.
• Any failure resulting from modifications or repairs carried out by any person other
than KEYENCE staff.
• Any failure that can certainly be prevented when the expendable part(s) is
maintained or replaced correctly as described in the instruction manual, the user’s
manual, etc.
• Any failure caused by a factor that cannot be foreseen at a scientific/technical
level at the time when the product has been shipped from KEYENCE.
• Any disaster such as fire, earthquake, and flood, or any other external factor, such
as abnormal voltage, for which we are not liable.
(2) The warranty scope is limited to the extent set forth in item (1), and KEYENCE
assumes no liability for any purchaser’s secondary damage (damage of equipment,
loss of opportunities, loss of profits, etc.) or any other damage resulting from a failure
of our product.
3. PRODUCT APPLICABILITY
KEYENCE products are designed and manufactured as general-purpose products
for general industries.
Therefore, our products are not intended for the applications below and are not
applicable to them. If, however, the purchaser consults with us in advance regarding
the employment of our product, understands the specifications, ratings, and
performance of the product on their own responsibility, and takes necessary safety
measures, the product may be applied. In this case, the warranty scope shall be the
same as above.
• Facilities where the product may greatly affect human life or property, such as
nuclear power plants, aviation, railroads, ships, motor vehicles, or medical
equipment
• Public utilities such as electricity, gas, or water services
• Usage outdoors, under similar conditions or in similar environments
