They are useful in applications where basic sensors provide adequate sensing per- formance. The long sensing **Type** range together with sensitivity **Housing style** adjustment gives a very flexi- **Housing size** ble sensor. The DC types are **Housing material** with a transistor output and **Housing length** the configuration is fully pro- **Detection principle** grammable (NPN, PNP, NO **Sensing distance** and NC). **Output type Output configuration Connection type** ## **T e Selection yp** |**Type Selection**|| |---|---| |**Housing**|**Range**| |**W x H x D**|**Sn**| |17 x 50 x 50 mm|10 m| **Ordering no.

To avoid interference from inductive voltage/ Relief of cable strain Protection of the sensing face Switch mounted on mobile carrier
current peaks, separate the prox. switch pow-
er cables from any other power cables, e.g.
motor, contactor or solenoid cables

Correct
The cable should not be pulled A proximity switch should not serve as Any repetitive flexing of the
mechanical stop cable should be avoided
