4. Opsætning og installation

Proper installation is critical for the sensor's performance and longevity. Follow these general guidelines:

1. Montering: Securely mount the sensor using the provided nuts on a stable surface. Ensure the sensing face is clear of obstructions and positioned correctly relative to the target object.
2. Ledningsføring: Connect the sensor according to the wiring diagram provided with the product packaging (not included in this general manual). Ensure correct polarity and voltage. The sensor operates on 100 Vac to 240 Vac.
3. Registrering af afstandsjustering: If applicable, adjust the sensing distance using the sensitivity adjuster (if present on your model) to optimize detection for your specific application and target material.
4. Miljøhensyn: Install the sensor in an environment free from excessive vibration, dust, moisture, and extreme temperatures outside its specified operating range.

5. Betjeningsvejledning

Once installed and powered, the CR30-15AO sensor operates automatically. It detects the presence of objects within its sensing range based on changes in capacitance.

• Princip for detektion: The sensor emits an electromagnetic field. When an object enters this field, it changes the capacitance, triggering the sensor's output.
• Udgangssignal: As a Normally Open (NO) sensor, its output will switch from OFF to ON when an object is detected within the sensing range.
• Indikator: Many models include an LED indicator that illuminates when an object is detected, providing visual confirmation of operation.

6. Vedligeholdelse

The AUTONICS CR30-15AO sensor is designed for minimal maintenance. However, regular checks can help ensure its long-term reliability:

• Rensning: Periodically clean the sensing face to remove dust, dirt, or debris that may interfere with detection. Use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Kabelinspektion: Check the sensor cable for any signs of damage, such as cuts, abrasions, or kinks. Replace the sensor if the cable is compromised.
• Monteringssikkerhed: Ensure the sensor remains securely mounted and that mounting nuts are tight.
• Miljøovervågning: Confirm that the operating environment continues to meet the sensor's specifications.
