Notes:
1) Where measurement conditions have not been specified precisely, the conditions used were an ambient temperature of +23 ℃ +73.4 ℉.
2) Model Nos. having the suffix "-PN" are PNP output type.
3) Either Light-ON or Dark-ON can be selected by the operation mode switch (located on the receiver).
4) The sensing range and the sensing object of the retroreflective type sensor are specified for the RF-200 reflector. Further, the sensing range is the possible setting range for the reflector. The sensor can detect an object less than 30 mm 1.181 in away. However, if the reflector is set 100 mm 3.937 in or less away, the sensing object should be opaque.

5) In case of using this product at a sensing range of 50 mm 1.969 in or less, take care that the sensitivity adjustment range becomes extremely narrow.
6) Make sure to confirm detection with an actual sensor before use.
