Photoelectric sensors in M18 stainless steel housing
E3FC
Best durability for wash-down applications
• High grade steel housing (SUS316L)
• Withstands heat shock conditions
• Epoxy resin preventing water ingress if connector is not fixed properly
• Proven with various industrial detergents of Ecolab and Diversey
(Details see page 10)
• Bright visible red LED enabling easy alignment

*2. IP68 Degree of Protection Specifications
IP68 is defined by heat shock resistance with 20 test cycles of 30 min. changing between 3° and 60° surface tensioned water.
*3. IP69K Degree of Protection Specifications
IP69K is a protection specification stipulated by DIN 40050 Part 9 of the German standards.
The test item is sprayed with 80C water from a nozzle of a specified shape at a water pressure of 80 to 100 bar. The amount of
water is 14 to 16 liters per minute.
The distance between the test item and the nozzle is 10 to 15 cm. The water is discharged at angles of 0, 30, 60, and 90 from
the horizontal plane for 30 seconds at each angle while the test item is rotated horizontally.

1. Laying Sensor wiring in the same conduit or duct as high-voltage
wires or power lines may result in malfunction or damage due to
conduit or use shielded cable.
2. Do not pull on the cable with excessive force.
3. If a commercial switching regulator is used, ground the FG (frame
ground) terminal.
4. The sensor will be available 100 ms after the power supply is tuned
ON. Start to use the sensor 100 ms or more after turning ON the
power supply. If the load and the sensor are connected to separate
power supplies, be sure to turn ON the sensor first.
5. Output pulses may be generated even when the power supply is
OFF. Therefore, it is recommended to first turn OFF the power
supply for the load or the load line.
6. The sensor must be mounted using the provided nuts. The proper
tightening torque is 20 N°m max..
