Function
<Output operation of muting sensors>
Operation at ON state
Operation at OFF state
NO (Normally Open) type
ON with light non-received status (photoelectric sensor, etc.)
ON with object approaching status (inductive proximity sensor, etc.)
ON with object contacted status (position switch, etc.)
Output 0V or +V
Open
WARNING
Be sure to use a muting sensor that satisfies the
<Output operation of muting sensors>
above. If
the other muting sensor not satisfying the specification above, the muting function might become val
-
id with the timing that the machine designer cannot expect and could result in death or serious injury.

1) Shorten the distances between muting sensors A to
C and between B to D than the whole length of the
sensing object.
2) The time of the sensing object to be passed through
the muting sensors A to B shall be 0.03 to under 3 sec.
Distance between A and B (m) < S (m/s) × 3 (sec.)
S: The moving speed (m/sec.) of the sensing object
3) The time of the sensing object to be passed through
the muting sensors C to D shall be under 3 sec.
Distance between C and D (m) < S (m/s) × 3 (sec.)
S: The moving speed (m/sec.) of the sensing object
