Function and features

This sensor detects metals without contact and indicates their presence by

providing a switched signal. Nominal sensing range (Sn) see type lable; operating

distance (Sa) 0...0,81 x Sn (Values based on standard measurement with mild

steel; a shorter sensing range for other metals).

Installation

Screw the sensor to a firm base. If there is high mechanical stress, ensure that it

cannot work loose. Flush mountable (fig. 1 and 2). When mounted in metal, the

metal must not protrude over the sensing face.

• Open space around the sensing face when mounted in metal: fig. 3.

• Minimum distance when several sensors of the same type are mounted: fig. 4

and 5.

Electrical connection

Disconnect power before connecting the sensor.

Note: insert a miniature fuse according to the technical data sheet, if specified.

Recommendation: check the unit for reliable function after a short cirucit.

Operation

Check the safe functioning of the sensor.

• The green LED is lit when the supply voltage is applied.

• The red (yellow) LED is lit when the output is switched.

The operation of the sensor is maintenance-free. For perfect functioning make

sure that:

• the sensing face and the open space are kept free of metal deposits and

foreign bodies, particularly for installation with the sensing face facing upwards;

• EMC: The unit conforms to the requirements of EN 60947-5-2.
