Function And Features - IFM Electronic efector 600 OWS Notice De Montage

Function and features

Infrared heat sensors absorb the heat radiation of objects and convert
it into a switching signal.
They are used for object detection or temperature monitoring.
Switching temperature 350°C/750°C (depending on the type of unit).
Installation
Align the sensor towards the object to be detected and mount it. A
special mounting base is available as accessory (order no. E20426) for
simple mounting.
The object must at least have the switching temperature of the sensor
and must cover the visible area which depends on the chosen angle of
aperture and sensing distance.
