1. Do not hit or damage the detection head surface.

2. Do not bend or apply excessive force to the fiber.

3. Do not apply excessive torque to the sensor head or use tools that do not match the nuts.

4. Do not twist in the gaps between the fiber cable and fiber adapter.

5. Depending on the bore shape of the sensor head, mount as shown in the diagrams below.

6. In the case of Fiber-Optic Cables that can be free cut, cut the tip with special fiber cutters before mounting to the Fiber-Optic Sensors.

7. The Fiber-Optic Cables bending radius should be greater than the allowable bending radius. Excessive bending will shorted the sensing distance.

8. Allow for some wire to remain straight near the insertion and tip parts of the Fiber-Optic Cables.

9. Because sensing distance may decrease by as much as 20% depending on the conditions of cut surface of the fiber or connection conditions with the Fiber-Optic Sensors, we recommend using with sensing distance set at 80% or below.

10. In areas subject to frequent vibration, secure so that the Fiber-Optic Cables itself will not vibrate. Especially work to limit vibrations from reaching connection points between the fiber and Fiber-Optic Sensors.

11. Use the method shown below to soften fiber head vibrations.

12. Do not use Fiber-Optic Cables not protected with fluoroplastic in environments where organic solvents are used.

13. Do not bend the sleeve tip or base.
