■ Recommended Mounting Hole Dimensions and Mounting and Dismounting Method
The Photomicrosensor can be mounted to 0.8- to 1.6-mm-thick
panels.
Refer to the above mounting hole dimensions and open the
mounting holes in the panel to which the Photomicrosensor will be
mounted.
Insert into the holes the Photomicrosensor’s mounting portions with
a force of three to five kilograms but do not press in the
Photomicrosensor at one time. The Photomicrosensor can be easily
mounted by inserting the mounting portions halfway and then slowly
pressing the Photomicrosensor onto the panel.
There are two ways to dismount the Photomicrosensor. Refer to the
following.
Dismounting with Screwdriver
Press the mounting hooks of the Photomicrosensor with a flat-blade
screwdriver as shown in the following illustration and pull up the
Photomicrosensor.
Dismounting by Hand
Squeeze the mounting tabs as shown in the following illustration and
press the mounting tabs upwards.
Pressed mounting holes are ideal for mounting the
Photomicrosensor. When mounting the Photomicrosensor to a panel
that has pressed mounting holes for the Photomicrosensor, be sure
to mount the Photomicrosensor on the pressing side of the panel,
otherwise it may be difficult to mount the Photomicrosensor and an
insertion force of five to six kilograms may be required.
When mounting the Photomicrosensor to a panel that has mounting
holes opened by pressing, make sure that the mounting holes have
no burrs, otherwise the lock mechanism of the Photomicrosensor will
not work perfectly. After mounting the Photomicrosensor to a panel,
be sure to check if the lock mechanism is working perfectly.
