• To minimize defeat possibilities, GS (Lock) should be

installed in a position where the accessibility to GS (Lock)
is prevented (e.g. mounting out of reach, physical
M5 hexagon socket head cap screw obstruction or shielding or mounting in hidden position),
(across-flats size: 3 mm, L = 6 mm) otherwise use non-detachable fixing to prevent dismantling
or de-positioning of GS (Lock).
Refer ISO 14119 for more information to minimize defeat
DANGER possibilities.
• Securely tighten the screws for the sensor, actuator, and
mounting brackets according to the specified tightening
torques.
• To prevent self-loosening, use medium strength screw
locker on the screws fixing the GS (Lock) sensor main unit,
actuator, and mounting brackets.
• If the dedicated bracket is not appropriate, please contact
nearest KEYENCE office.
4 After inserting the screw, remove the plastic pipe from the metal head and
dispose of the plastic pipe. When installing the unit on a hinged door, do so while ensuring
NOTICE
that the door radius is larger than 250 mm.
Reference • When replacing the sensor or actuator, do so by following the

same procedure.
• The appropriate screws to mount the main unit and the bracket
to the machine must be purchased separately.
2-3 Cascade Connection Between Units

Multiple GS (Lock) and GS (Non-contact) units can be connected in series (in
a cascade connection).
This makes it possible to monitor the opening and closing of multiple doors or
similar items on the same machine.
For the wiring method, see “Cascade connection wiring example” (page
8).
