Primary Contents



Ratings

Rated power supply voltage12 to 24 VDC (Allowable voltage fluctuation range: 10 to 30 VDC)
Operate resistance0 to 1 MΩ variable

Note: The adjuster (ADJUST) on the top of the Sensor Amplifier sets the resistance for detection within the setting range. It is factory-set to the upper limit.
(Normally, the K7L can be used with the adjuster at this setting.)
Disconnection detection function
(See note.)
Detection signal: 10 VDC max., 200 ms
Detection time: 10 s max.
Recovery: Operation is recovered by resetting the power supply.
Release resistance105% min. of operate resistance
Output configurationNPN open-collector transistor output with 100 mA at 30 VDC max. for both liquid leakage detection and disconnection detection.

Note: If the rightmost pin of the DIP switch on the side of the Sensor Amplifier is set to the down position, the output turns ON when liquid is detected; if it is set to the up position, the output turns OFF when liquid is detected.
Vibration resistance10 to 150 Hz, 0.1-mm single amplitude with 50-m/s2 acceleration for 8 minutes 10 times each in X, Y, and Z directions
Shock resistance150 m/s2 3 times each in six directions on 3 axes
Wiring distance

Note:These values are possible on the condition that a completely insulated 3-conductor VCT cable with a thickness of 0.75 mm2 and a dielectric strength of 600 V is used together with the Liquid Sensing Band specified by OMRON. (A 0.2-mm2 cable can also be used.)
Accessories

Note: For the K7L-UD.
