 When using the transmitted beam sensing mode in high noise (EMF) applications, it is recommended that the 42KL--RxxV receiver be used whenever possible. This will prevent the sensor from “locking on” due to high line voltage

spikes.

Operating Distance Selection

The maximum operating distance is based on
installing the sensor in a relatively clean
environment. Normal industrial environments
actually range from moderately dusty toextremely
dirty. Greater operating margin may be required
which can be obtained by reducing the operating
distance of thecontrol.

Indicators

Green on indicates power on.
Yellow on indicates output is energized.
Orange on indicates 2.5X margin.
Orange flashing indicates short circuit or overload.

ATTENTION

Wahl der Reichweite

Die maximale Reichweitebasiert auf einer
Installation des sensors in einer relativ sau-beren
Umgebung. Normale industriellle Umgebungen sind
zumeist jedoch relativstaubig bis äußerst
verschmutzt. In diesem Fall ist eine größere
Betriebsmarge erforderlich, die durch einen
geringeren Abstand erzielt werden kann.

Leuchtanzeigen

Gelbes Dauerlicht: Ausgang aktiviert.

ACHTUNG

Vor dem Beheben eines Kurzschlusses

Choix de la Distance de Fonctionnement

La distance maximale de fonctionnement dépend
de la propreté relative de l’environnement
d’installation de la cellule. A vrai dire, les
environnements industriels normaux vont de
modérément poussiéreux à extrêmement sales.
Une marge d’opération plus grande peut être
nécessaire et s’obtient en réduisant la distance
opérationnelle du contrôle.

Indicateurs

Vert allumé indique : sous tension.
Jaune allumé indique : sortie activée.
Orange allumé indique : marge de 2,5 X.
Orange clignotant indique : court-circuit ou

ATTENTION

Selezione Distanzia Operative

La massima distanza di funzionamento si basa
sull’installazione del sensore in un ambiente
relativamento pulito. Gli ambienti industriali normali
vanno in verità da moderatamente polverosia
estremamente sporchi. Potrebbe esserenecessario
un margine di funzionamento superiore che si può
ottenere riducendo la distanza operativa del
controllo.

Indicatori

Verde acceso indica alimentazione.
Giallo acceso indica uscita energizzata.
Arancio acceso indica margine 2,5X.
Arancio lampeggiante indica cortocircuito o
sovraccarico.
