Concerning Safety…ifm efector makes every effort to build a
dependable product, but every product will eventually fail. Therefore,
your equipment must be designed to prevent property damage and
personal injury if our products fail. ifm efector proximity switches are
not designed to be used as stand-alone devices to protect or guard
human life or limb.
When mounting tubular switches next to each other,
the spacing distance shown here should be maintained.
D = switch diameter
Flush mountable switches can be mounted
so that the active face is flush with a metal surface.
Any metal in front of the switch should be kept at
a distance of three times the nominal sensing range.
s = nominal sensing range
b = maximum thread length
M8 - 8mm, M12 - 8mm
M18 - 8mm, M 30 - 16mm
Sr = nominal sensing range
When mounting tubular switches opposite each other,
the spacing distance shown here should be maintained.
Two flat nuts are provided to hold
the installed switch in place.

ELECTRICAL
DO NOT operate an incandescent light bulb as a load.
The current inrush when the bulb is cold can cause a
current overload.
DO NOT operate a proximity sensor directly from a voltage
supply without a load. This is a short circuit and can cause
damage. Note: insert a miniature fuse according to the tech-
nical data sheet, if specified.
WARNING
Explosion Hazard — substitution of components may
impair suitability of Class 1, Div. 2.
CAUTION
Nonmetallic enclosure does not provide grounding
between conduit connections. Use grounding type
bushing and jumper wires.
Use only ifm efector conduit adapters (U30029, U30030,
U30031) or other CSA certified conduit adapters.
