Note 1 :Where measurement conditions have not been specified precisely, the conditions used were an ambient temperature of +23 ℃ +73.4℉.
Note 2 :When detecting leak (output OFF) during leak setting (F7 mode), since the sensor flashes the emitted light, only the response action for turning the signal back to ON is delayed (1 sec. approx.).
Note 3 :The voltage withstandability and the insulation resistance values given in the above table are for the amplifier only.
Note 4 :The cable for amplifier connection is not supplied as an accessory. Make sure to use the optional quick-connection cable given below.
Main cable (3-core): CN-73-C1 (cable length 1 m 3.281 ft), CN-73-C2 (cable length 2 m 6.562 ft), CN-73-C5 (cable length 5 m 16.404 ft)
Sub cable (1-core): CN-71-C1 (cable length 1 m 3.281 ft), CN-71-C2 (cable length 2 m 6.562 ft), CN-71-C5 (cable length 5 m 16.404 ft)
