• Influence of surrounding metal
Metal other than the object surrounding the sensor may in-
fluence operating characteristics. Maintain the following space
between the sensor and surrounding metal:
Side (mm)
A=3
Top (mm)
B=8, C=10

• Mutual interference prevention
When mounting proximity sensors in parallel or facing each
other, mutual interference may cause the sensor to malfunction.
Maintain at least the spaces indicated in the figures above.
When alternately mounting standard-frequency types and
different-frequency types (Catalog listing APM- 3 1F) in a
row, maintain at least the space indicated by the figure in
parentheses for both dimensions A and B.

• Operation at power ON
After the power is turned ON, it takes 40ms or less until the
proximity sensor is ready for sensing.
When the load and the proximity sensor use different power
supplies, be sure to turn the proximity sensor ON before turning
the load ON.
• Minimum cord bending radius (R)
The minimum bending radius (R) of the cord is 10mm. Take care
not to excessively bend the cord beyond this radius. Also, do not
excessively bend the cord within 30mm of the cord lead-in port.
