● Air cylinder type
*1
When the surrounding temperature is 20°C.
*2
This is a typical value at the center of the measuring range. The measuring force varies depending on the mounted condition of the dust boot.
*3
Connect an air tube to the exhaust valve so that no foreign materials enter from the valve.
*4
When using mounting bracket D (OP-84327) with GT2-A32/A50, vibration is 0.75 mm.
*5
The contact is a separately sold option.

Precautions on use when units are added
3 units in total (15 sensor heads in total) – 1 main unit and 2 expansion units – can be added to the amplifier.
Be sure to mount the units (pre-mounted on metal plating) onto a DIN rail, and use an end unit (OP-26751) when expanding.
Furthermore, check the specification limits below for the number of expansion units.
Up to 3 units, including a main unit
Make sure that the Communication Unit output current is 10 mA or below.
