Question:
Explain the screw tightening torque for Photomicrosensors.
Answer:
Please refer to each product datasheet for the types of screw and the tightening torque for our Photomicrosensors. Refer to Explanation if there is no description.
Explanation:
Tighten the screws of built-in type Photomicrosensors using the tightening torque specifications shown below.
Follow the instructions in the datasheet if applicable.
Keep in mind the following when installing Photomicrosensors with screws.
-
We recommend using a torque screwdriver that can control the torque.
-
Use 3-piece screws (set of screw, spring washer and flat washer)… Using 2-piece screws (set of screw and spring washer) may cause cracks in the screw mounting area.
-
There should be no cutting oil on the mounting plate.
Using a screw or mounting plate with cutting oil may cause cracks in the screw mounting area. -
Prevent stress from being applied to lead terminals of LED/light receiving elements. In the case of a PCB-incorporated screw-mounting model, elements may be broken due to the load of lead wire or PCB on lead terminals. Prevent stress of more than 4.9 N or higher from being applied to each lead terminal, including instantaneous external force.
Quick tips
Screw-mounting connector models are also available in the built-in type Photomicrosensors series.
For details, refer to EE-SX3162/3163/3164-P and EE-SX4162/4163/4164-P.
