Thank you very much for using SUNX sensors. Please read this Instruction Manual carefully and thoroughly for the correct and optimum use of this sensor. Kindly keep this instruction manual in a convenient place for quick reference.
2 CAUTIONS
vMake sure to carry out the wiring in the power supply off condition.
vVerify that supply voltage variation is within the rating.
vIf power is supplied from a commercial switching regulator, ensure that the frame ground (F.G.) terminal of the power supply is connected to an actual ground.
vIn case noise generating equipment (switching regulator, inverter motor, etc.) is used in the vicinity of this product, connect the frame ground (F.G.) terminal of the equipment to an actual ground.
vDo not use during the initial transient time (50ms) after the power supply is switched on.
vDo not run the wires together with high-voltage lines or power lines or put them in the same raceway. This can cause malfunction due to induction.
vExtension up to total 100m is possible with 0.3mm2, or more, cable. However, take care that the output voltage drops when the cable is extended.
vAvoid dust, dirt, and steam.
vTake care that the product does not come in direct contact with water, oil, grease or organic solvents, such as, thinner, etc.
vPrecautions for fiber
xDo not expose the fiber cable to any organic solvent.
xDo not apply excessive tensile force to the fiber cable.
xWipe dirt or stains from the sensing faces with a soft cloth.
xThe bending radius of the fiber cable must be R25mm or more. If the bending radius is smaller, the sensing ability is decreased. However, as there are fibers which can be bent at less than R25mm, their bending radius should be equal to, or more, than the value specified in their catalog.
xThe free-cut fiber cables must be cut with a fiber cutter before insertion into the amplifier.
Note: Cut only one fiber cable at a time.
Once a fiber cable is cut off at a hole, do not use that hole again.
x |
The sleeve part bending radius of fiber with sleeve must be R10mm or more. |

xTake care that the sensor is not directly exposed to fluorescent light from a rapidstarter lamp or a high frequency lighting device, as it may affect the sensing performance.
xThe tightening torque must not exceed the values given below.

3 MOUNTING
How to mount the amplifier
1Fit the rear part of the amplifier on the attached amplifier mounting
bracket (MS-DIN-2) or a 35mm width DIN rail.
2Press down the front part of the amplifier on the amplifier mounting bracket (MS-DIN-2) or the DIN rail to fit it.
How to remove the amplifier
1 Push the amplifier forward.
2Lift up the front part of the amplifier to remove it.

Note: Please take care that if the front part is lifted without pushing the amplifier forwards, the hooks on the rear portion of the mounting section are likely to break.
How to connect the fiber cables
1 Unlock the fiber lock lever. |

2 Insert the fiber cables slowly |
|
into the inlets until they stop. |

3 Lock the fiber lock lever in the |

Note: 1) In case the fiber cables are not inserted to a position where they stop, the sensing range reduces.
2)With the coaxial reflective type fiber, such as, FD-G4 or FD-FM2, insert the center fiber cable (single-core) into the beam-emitting inlet and the outer fiber cable (multi-core) into the beam-receiving inlet. If they are inserted in reverse,
the sensing accuracy will deteriorate. |
