A good sensor.
A dependable setup.
The missing step between choosing a sensor and trusting it on your machine. Connect, investigate, test—and leave a clear handover.

01 / INSTALLATION CHECK
Make the interfaces agree.
Three details reveal many installation conflicts. Unknown information stays unknown.
Your installation
Isolate before altering wiring. These checks compare recorded fields; they do not approve an installation or a safety function.

Supply rating needs confirmation
No confirmed supply rating is available for this selection.

Confirm the required switching state
Choose whether the output should be on or off in the detected state, then verify the selected sensor’s actual switching definition.

Exact wiring still needs confirmation
This lab will not invent pin numbers or wire colours. Request the exact drawing before wiring.
PNP and NPN are current paths.
PNPSensor supplies the positive signal.
+V → sensor → input → 0VNPNSensor provides the path to 0 V.
+V → input → sensor → 0VConceptual paths only. Use the exact sensor and controller drawings for terminal assignments.
Installation matters as much as range.
Start with the physical target
Describe what changes: metal arrives, a light path is interrupted, a magnet moves, or a measured distance changes.
Use the actual installation
Document the target, bracket, controller and operating conditions. A catalogue range alone does not establish reliable operation.
No guessed pinouts.
A connector shape, wire colour or output label does not establish the complete wiring. This panel only displays a map when the selected product’s current terminal record is verified.

We’ll work through it with you.
A clear brief helps the team understand the installation before suggesting the next step.
REFERENCE DESK
Know what the advice is based on.
General principles from manufacturer guidance. These are not Dolphin product approvals; the selected sensor’s specification and drawing take precedence.
