e-71 E2K-L E2K-L precautions design influence of surrounding objects performance may be adversely affected by conductive ob- jects (e.g., metals) in the vici nity of the sensor. ensure that any conductive objects are se parated from the sensor and set at a minimum distance as shown below. influence of surrounding objects (units: mm) mutual interference when installing 2 or more sensors in series, in parallel, or fac- ing each other, be sure that they are separated by at least the distances shown below. mutual interference (unit: mm) * the detection level for the top sensor may change when the detection level for the bottom sensor is set. be sure to set the detection level for the bottom sensor first. installation sensor installation attach the sensor securely to the pipe using the 2 binding bands and the 4 nonskid tubes provided (2 tubes per band) in the way shown below. install the sensor in such manner that the pipe is in contact with the entire sensing face of the sensor with the pipe and sensor in parallel. wiring considerations power supply if separate power supplies are used for sensor and load, be sure to turn on the sensor power supply first. if a commercially available switching regulator is used, the sensor may malfunction because of switching noise. connect the frame ground and ground terminals to ground. operating environment ambient conditions although this product has waterproof specifications, do not use it in locations where it may have a direct contact with liquids (e.g., water or cutting oil). such locations can interfere with the electrostatic capacity method used by the sensor. even if the sensor is used wi thin the specified temperature range, do not subject it to s udden changes in temperature be- cause this will shorten the service life. miscellaneous drift may occur when the power supply is turned on. if the di- electric constant of the liquid is low, the detection level of the liquid may be 2 to 3 mm higher than the set level for approxi- mately 20 minutes after power is turned on. correct use shape length a b c E2K-L13mc1 25 545 E2K-L26mc1 0 40 shape length d (see note) e f E2K-L13mc1 10 10 25 E2K-L26mc1 30 c b a sensor pipe object on opposite side object on one side objects on both sides installed in parallel installed in facing each other f e installed in series sides d sensor level of liquid surface pipe slip-prevention tubes slip-prevention tubes binding bands setting position (notch) binding bands operation indicator sensitivity adjuster sensor pipe side view front view top view
