Insert the two upper tabs on the mounting fixture into the head installation hole
on the amplifier unit and pull the mounting fixture up in the direction shown in
the diagram. If the tabs do not slide into place easily, push on the bottom of the
mounting fixture.
Installation is complete when the head release lever locks into place as shown
in the following diagram.
Note
Check that the lower tab on the mounting fixture for the connector fits into the
groove on the bottom of the amplifier unit. If the tab does not fit into the groove,
remove the sensor head and try connecting it again.
Mounting the Amplifier Unit
■
Mounting on a DIN rail
1
Hook the tab located on the bottom of the amplifier unit to the DIN rail as
shown in the figure. While pushing the amplifier unit in the direction of arrow
1 , tilt it in the direction of arrow 2 .
2
To dismount the sensor, raise the amplifier unit in the direction of arrow 3 while
pushing the amplifier unit in the direction of arrow 1 .
■
Mounting the amplifier unit sideways (Only for use with a single unit)
Mount the amplifier unit using M3 screws in the two locations as shown in the
diagram. Use a maximum torque of 0.6 N•m to tighten the screws.
Using Multiple Amplifier Units
(Interference Protection Function)
Installing multiple amplifier units (up to four) side by side on a DIN rail can protect
against interference.
Two end units ( option item: OP-26751 (two units included)) are also required.
1
Install the sensor heads to the connected amplifier units.
2
Sandwich the amplifier units between the end units. Tighten the screws at the top
(two screws in two locations each) with a Phillips screwdriver to fix the end units.
Note
End units must be used.
Removing the Sensor Head from the
Amplifier Unit
Note
Do not pull on the cable.
1
Grasp the amplifier unit. While pulling the head release lever in the direction of
arrow
1 , slide the mounting fixture for the connector in the direction of arrow
2 . Pull the connector from the amplifier unit in the direction of arrow 3 .

Precautions for Installing the Sensor Head
• Install the sensor head so that it can move at least 4 ° in any direction. This allows
beam-axis adjustment for the sensor head.
Use a mounting fixture especially made for beam-axis adjustment with an
elongated hole. Contact KEYENCE for more information about this item, which is
sold separately.
• The sensor head cable in gray jacket is for the transmitter side and black jacket
for the receiver side.
