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
power cables from any other power cables,
e.g. motor, contactor or solenoid cables
Incorrect
a
l { NN
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
