Shock Sensor Precautions During Use
Go back to the list of "all products"
Installation direction
Install the sensor with its detection direction align with the impact direction to obtained the specified performance.
Installation surface
Install the sensor on a flat surface without irregularities. Otherwise, the case may deform when installed, causing stress to the internal detection parts and making it impossible to obtain the correct performance.
About the installation
Do not use the sensor when stress is applied on the cable connected part, or when the cable is subject to impacts and oscillates. Otherwise, the cable may break or the sensor may malfunction.
Secure the cable connected part so that it does not oscillate and no stress is applied on it.
About thermal shocks
If the sensor is subject to thermal shocks, its detection sensitivity will vary as long as it is subject to the sudden temperature change. Check the environment before using the sensor.
About the operating environment
Avoid using or storing the sensors in locations subject to direct sunlight, with sudden temperature change, or where water, oil, chemicals, dust, or corrosive gases may contact the sensors. Note also that the sensors lifespan and performance are greatly affected by condensation and frost.
