Two-stage detection addresses both incipient liquid leaks (by generating a warning) and
abnormal liquid leaks (by initiating an emergency stop).
On the bottom of the sensor
are two detection units, one
located at the front and one at
the center. If a liquid leak
occurs in front of the sensor,
the front detection unit will
detect even a small incipient
leak. When the leak increases
in volume and reaches the
center of the sensor, it will be
detected as an abnormal leak.
While previous
implementations of two-stage
liquid leak detection have
relied on two separate sensors
installed at different heights,
the SQ4 delivers the same
full-featured detection
capability in a single sensor
unit.

SYSTEMS
Incipient liquid leak detection unit
Liquid leak
First stage
In the absence of a leak, the receiver is able to
detect the light from the emitter. When a leak occurs,
the light is diffused by the liquid.
The SQ4 can also detect human error (improper installation).
Knurling on the sides of the sensor head
makes it easy to grip.
STATIC

Abnormal liquid
leak detection
In addition to detecting liquid leaks, the SQ4 can detect both
human error (such as a failure to install the sensor) and sensor
malfunctions. If the sensor itself or the sensor and its mounting
bracket have become dislodged, have been improperly installed,
or are suffering from a broken cable connection, light from the
emitter will not reach the receiver, causing the device to
generate the same output as if a liquid leak had occurred.

(Inadequately tightened screws

The attachment becomes
separated from the mounting
bracket, preventing light from
reaching the receiver
The SQ4 can also be used alone.
The SQ4 can also be used without a controller, allowing the benefits of two-stage detection to be added to existing
equipment by augmenting or replacing existing detection systems.

The SQ4 delivers safety performance of the highest caliber.
The SQ4 system is designed to fulfill safety
requirements imposed by international
standards. When used in combination, the
SQ4-A sensor and SQ4-C11 controller meet
category 4, PLe, SIL3 requirements under
ISO 13849-1, which has been updated to add
probability criteria to the existing risk
evaluation system (in the control category),
allowing the functional safety of programmable
electronic control systems and related devices
to be evaluated. The sensor fulfills control

Daisy-chaining
The controller’s safety input function can be used to connect wiring used to daisy-chain controllers together as well as
input from safety contacts (2NC) on emergency stop switches, safety door switches, and other devices. In this way,
safety output can be aggregated onto a single line to reduce safety circuit wiring and lower costs.

•• There is the detection mount difference by directivity
of a liquid leakage. When there are a direction from
which a liquid leakage happens, and an inclination,
please install the nose-of-cam side (opposite side

••Use the mounting bracket MS-SQ4-□
(optional) which suits the liquid to detect.
••Periodical checking of operation is
recommended with the liquids which are not
dangerous (water, alcohol, etc.).
••The amount of detection may change with
the conditions of the installation surface.
••Be sure to use the mounting bracket MS-SQ4-□

Leakage detection condition and variation factor
••Leak detection part of this product properly detects the
leakage in the following condition.
1. Detection range: Area except backward of this product
(liquid must enter to the detection range)
2. Material of installation surface:
Hard vinyl chloride or Stainless steel
3. Surface condition for installation:
Glossy surface (surface roughness: corresponding
0.4 μmRa) and clean surface.
4. Installation surface angle: Horizontal
Detection range
••This product may not detect properly liquid in following
element.
1. Liquid kind, consistency (surface tension) and air
bubble incorporation.
2. Material, roughness, angle, dirtiness and liquid
absorption of surface of installed surface of sensor.
3. Wrong selection of dedicated mounting bracket.
••Check the detecting liquid and the installation condition
before use.
