Warning label: 1 set
(Labels are written in Japanese, English and Chinese for compliance)

Note 1 :Where measurement conditions have not been specified precisely, the conditions used were an ambient temperature of +23 ℃ +73.4 ℉.
Note 2 :This product complies with 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 Laser Notice No. 50, dated June 24, 2007, issued by CDRH (Center for Devices and Radiological Health) under the FDA (Food and Drug Administration). For details, refer to the Laser Notice No. 50.
Note 3 :LS-H22(F) is the set model No. for LS-H21(F) long sensing range spot reflective type sensor head combined with the LS-MR1 lens attachment for line reflective type. Hence, LS-H21(F) appears on the sensor head itself.
Note 4 :The sensing range is the value for the RF-330 [RF-230 for the LS-H92(F)] reflector. In addition, the sensing range is the possible setting range for the reflector. The sensor can detect an object less than 0.1 m 0.328 ft [LS-H92(F): 0.2 m 0.656 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 M.G.S. function of the amplifier unit to change the response time or incident light sensitivity.
Note 5 :Cable cannot be extended.
