Note 1) Operating load is an induction load.
Note 2) Wiring to the load is 5 m or longer.
Use the contact protection box in any of the
above listed situations. The contact point life
may decrease. (Refer to page 12-13-5 for
contact protection box.)

Note 1) Regarding the common specifications of the reed switches, refer to page 12-13-5.
Note 2) Regarding the lead wire length, refer to page 12-13-5.
Note 3) Under 5 mA, the strength of the indicator light is poor. In some cases, visibility of the
indicator light will not be possible where the output signal is less than 2.5 mA. However,
there is no problem in terms of contact output, when an output signal exceeds 1 mA or
more.
The optimum operating position
can be determined by the color
of the light.
