※
1: The response frequency is the average value. The standard sensing target is used and the width is set as 2 times of the standard sensing target, 1/2 of the
sensing distance for the distance.
※
2: Before using non-polarity type, check the condition of connected device because residual voltage is 5V.
※
3: Do not pull the Ø4mm cable with a tensile strength of 30N or over and the Ø5mm cable with a tensile strength of 50N or over.
It may result in fire due to the broken wire. When extending wire, use AWG22 cable or over within 200m.
※
4: The weight with packaging and the weight in parenthesis is only unit weight.

Mutual- interference
◎
When several proximity sensors are mounted closely, malfunction of sensor may be caused due to mutual interference. Therefore, be
sure to provide a minimum distance between the two sensors with referring to the chart below.

Influence by surrounding metals
◎
When sensors are mounted on metallic panel, it is required to protect the sensors from being affected by any metallic object except
target. Therefore, be sure to provide a minimum distance as below chart.

Setting Distance
●
Sensing distance can be changed by the shape, size or material of the target.
Therefore please check the sensing distance like (a), then pass the target within range of setting distance(Sa).
●
Setting distance(Sa) = Sensing distance(Sn) × 70%
E g.) PRA30-10DN
Setting distance(Sa) = 10mm × 0.7 = 7mm
Installation and Tightening Torque
When tightening the nut, use the provided washer as [Figure 1]
When installing the product, the tightening torque of the nut varies
according to the distance from the fore-end.
The front part of the product is from the fore-end to the dimension on
the below table, and the rear part is from the tip of the nut to the end
of the product. [Figure 2]
In case the nut is placed in the front part of the product, apply
tightening torque for front part.
[Table 1] the allowable tightening torque table is for inserting the
washer as [Figure 3].
[Figure 1]
Caution during Use
1. Follow instructions in 'Cautions during Use'. Otherwise, it may cause unexpected accidents.
2. 12-24VDC power supply should be insulated and limited voltage/current or Class 2, SELV power supply device.
3. Use the product, after 0 8 sec of supplying power.
4. Wire as short as possible and keep away from high voltage lines or power lines, to prevent surge and inductive noise.
Do not use near the equipment which generates strong magnetic force or high frequency noise (transceiver, etc.).
In case installing the product near the equipment which generates strong surge (motor, welding machine, etc.), use diode or varistor to
remove surge.
5. If the surface of the product is rubbed with a hard object, PTFE coating can be worn out.
6. This unit may be used in the following environments.
