How to Use the PSN17‑8DN
-
Mount the Sensor
-
Secure the sensor using its mounting holes, aligning its sensing face toward the target metal within an 8 mm distance.
-
-
Wiring Connections
-
Brown wire → +12–24 V DC
-
Blue wire → 0 V (Ground)
-
Black wire → Control system input (PLC, relay for NPN output)
-
-
Operation Check
-
Power on the sensor. Bring a metal object into proximity; the built-in LED should light, and the NPN output will switch, signaling detection.
-
-
Testing & Calibration
-
Ensure repeatability by testing multiple passes. Adjust positioning to confirm detection consistency. (No sensitivity adjustment needed.)
-
-
Environment & Maintenance
-
Avoid exposure to extreme heat beyond rated temperature. Keep the sensing face clean for accurate operation.
