Notes :

1)	Where measurement conditions have not been specified precisely, the conditions used were an ambient temperature of +23 ℃ +73.4 ℉.
2)	When using the thru-beam type LS-H101□ or LS-H102□, do not set the receiving light sensitivity (gctL) of the applicable LS-500 series amplifier to level 2 or less. This is because there is a possibility of sensing becoming unstable.
3)	The sensing range of the coaxial reflective type sensor is specified for white non-glossy paper (100 x 100 mm 3.937 x 3.937 in) as the object.
4)	The sensing ranges for coaxial retroreflective type sensors are values for the RF-330 reflector. In addition, the sensing range is the possible setting range for the reflector. The sensor can detect an object less than 0.01 m 0.033 ft away. Note that if there are white papers or specular objects near the sensor head, reflected light from these objects may be received. In such cases, use the amplifier unit's receiving sensitivity function to lower the sensitivity, change the response time, or move the sensor head away from the target object. The incident light intensity may vary with the condition of the reflector surface. When using one of the applicable LS-500 series amplifiers, leave an adequate safety margin when setting the threshold.
5)	Make sure to confirm detection with an actual sensor before use.
6)	This product complies with the FDA regulations (FDA 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11) in accordance with FDA Laser Notice No. 56, except for complying with IEC 60825-1 Ed. 3.
7)	Cable cannot be extended.
