4. સેટઅપ અને ઇન્સ્ટોલેશન

4.1 માઉન્ટ કરવાનું

1. સ્થાન પસંદ કરો: Choose a mounting location where the sensor can reliably detect the target object within its 7 mm detection range.
2. ફ્લશ માઉન્ટિંગ: The M18 sensor is designed for flush mounting. Ensure the sensing face is flush with the surrounding metallic material to prevent interference.
3. સુરક્ષિત ફાસ્ટનિંગ: Use appropriate mounting hardware to securely fasten the sensor. The cylindrical housing typically uses nuts for secure installation through a panel or bracket.
4. દખલગીરી ટાળો: Ensure there are no other metallic objects within the sensor's active zone that could cause false triggers, apart from the intended target.

4.2.૨.૨ વાયરિંગ

The sensor utilizes a 4-pin M12 connector. Refer to the following general wiring diagram. Always consult the specific wiring diagram provided with your sensor for exact pin assignments.

• પિન 1: +V (10-36 V DC)
• પિન 3: 0 V (GND)
• પિન 4: Output (Switching Signal)
• પિન 2: (May be unused or used for additional functions depending on sensor variant)

Connect the M12 connector securely to the sensor. Ensure the cable is routed to prevent damage from moving parts or sharp edges.

5. ઓપરેટિંગ સૂચનાઓ

Once properly installed and wired, the Balluff M18 Inductive Proximity Sensor operates automatically. When a metallic object enters the sensor's detection range (7 mm), the sensor's output will switch state. The specific output type (NPN or PNP, normally open or normally closed) depends on the sensor variant. Refer to the product label or datasheet for your specific sensor's output configuration.

• પાવર ચાલુ: ઉલ્લેખિત ડીસી વોલ્યુમ લાગુ કરોtage (10-36 V) to the sensor.
• તપાસ: Move a metallic target object towards the sensing face.
• આઉટપુટ સિગ્નલ: Observe the change in the output signal (e.g., via a connected PLC input or indicator light) when the target is detected.
• ગોઠવણ: If necessary, adjust the target's position or the sensor's mounting to achieve reliable detection within the desired operating point.

6. જાળવણી

The Balluff M18 Inductive Proximity Sensor is designed for minimal maintenance due to its robust construction and IP67 rating. However, regular checks can ensure optimal performance and longevity.

• સફાઈ: Periodically clean the sensing face to remove any accumulated dust, dirt, or debris that could affect detection. Use a soft, damp કાપડ ઘર્ષક ક્લીનર્સ અથવા સોલવન્ટનો ઉપયોગ કરશો નહીં.
• Cable and Connector Check: Inspect the cable and M12 connector for any signs of damage, wear, or loose connections. Ensure the connector is securely tightened.
• માઉન્ટિંગ સુરક્ષા: Verify that the sensor remains securely mounted and has not shifted from its intended position.
• કાર્ય પરીક્ષણ: Periodically test the sensor's function by presenting a known metallic target to ensure it is switching correctly.
