Safety Precautions
Refer to Warranty and Limitations of Liability on page F-2.
Do not use the product in atmospheres or environments that exceed
product ratings.
Connector Connection or Disconnection
•Before using a Sensor or Limit Switch, check this catalog and be
sure that the Sensor or Limit Switch can be connected.
•Be sure to turn OFF the power supplied to the XW3B before
Connector connection or disconnection.
•Do not touch the engaged side of any Connector with a wet hand.
•If a Connector is wet with water, wipe the Connector and be sure
that the connector is completely dry.
•Be sure that there is no metal plate or powder on the engaged side
of any Connector.
Cable Connection
•Be sure to wire the cable correctly according to the wiring diagram
so that the blue wire will be connected to the negative power supply
terminal and the brown wire will be connected to the positive power
supply terminal.
•If there is any wiring mistake, the load will not operate or the
operation indicator will not light.
•Be sure to connect a load to the signal lines to operate the Sensor
and Actuator.
Applicable Connectors
•Applicable Connectors are the XS2G (assembly type), XS2H
(monoblock type), and XS2W (monoblock type).
•After a Connector is engaged, tighten the Connector securely with
a mounting bracket.
•Be sure to put the XS2Z-12 Waterproof Cover or XS2Z-15 Dust
Cover on any Connector that is not used.
Power Supply and Operation Indicators
•When power is supplied, the green power indicator will be lit. When
the Sensors and Actuators are operating, the corresponding red
operation indicators will be lit.
•Only DC Sensors and Actuators can be connected to the XW3B.
Do not connect AC Sensors or Actuators.
•Connector Terminal Boxes are internally wired with 2 or 3 wires.
The type is marked on the case.
