detection accuracy may not be sufficiently high. These include ma-
terials that are transparent or have extremely low reflectivity, and
objects that are smaller than the Sensor’s spot diameter or have ex-
treme curvature or inclination.
check to make sure that the power supply is correct, that there are
no mistaken connections, e.g., connections that would short-circuit
the load, and that the load current is appropriate. Incorrect wiring
may result in damage to the Sensor or Unit.

quired to extend the cable from the Sensor. Use a shielded cable to
extend the Amplifier cable. The shielded cable must be the same as
that of the Amplifier cable.

Do not use thinners, benzine, acetone, or kerosene for cleaning.
If dust or oil adheres to the filter on the front of the Sensor Head,
use the following procedure to clean.
1. Do not impose voltage exceeding the rated voltage, otherwise

remove the remaining dust. Do not use a scrubbing action
when cleaning because scratches on the filter could result in
