Note: 1. A: Not affected at all or only very slightly affected.
B: Slightly affected but, depending on the conditions, sufficient for use.
C: Affected but may still be used. (Replace the Sensing Band immediately after detection.)
2. The F03-16PE Sensing Band is made from the following materials.
Core: SUS316
Insulated sheath: Polyethylene
3. In order to prevent secondary fire damage, consider the effect of the atmosphere of the environment and the solution to be detected on
the Sensing Band.
4. If the Sensing Band changes shape or color when a liquid is detected, replace the Sensing Band.
Connecting the Sensing Band
Bending the Sensing Band
To change the direction of the Sensing Band, bend the Sensing Band
in one or two places where the core is not exposed.
Bent in 1 place
Bent in 2 places
Note: Bend the Sensing Band approximately 4 cm (i.e., twice the dis-
tance between places where the core is exposed) away from
places where a Sticker is attached. If the Sensing Band is bent
at places further away than this, the Sensing Band may come
away from the surface.
Stripping and Connecting Terminals
1. Cut into the Sensing Band approximately 4 to 6 cm in from the
end as shown in the diagram below.
2. Strip away approximately the last 9 mm of the sheath to expose
the core (SUS line).
3. To connect to the Terminal Block, insert the screwdriver (see note
3) from the top of the Terminal Block and insert the stripped end
of the core from the side. (Refer to Dimensions on page 1.)

Note: Check that the wiring is secure before using the K7L in applica-

Interval Between Stickers
When securing the Sensing Band with Stickers, attach the Stickers at
intervals of 20 to 30 cm in places where the core is not exposed.

Sticker
Note: 1. When using the F03-26PES (adhesive-tape model), be sure
to wipe all moisture, oil, and dust from the surface to which
the Sticker is to be attached. Failure to do so may result in
insufficient adhesion, and the Sticker may peel away from
the surface.
2. When using the F03-26PEN (screw model), before installing
the Sensing Band, it is necessary to perform stud welding.
For details on the pitch of the studs, refer to the information
on the dimensions of Sensing Band Stickers.
3. Commercially available screwdrivers can be used. It is rec-
ommended, however, that either a 210-350/01 screwdriver
or a 209-132 operating tool to connect jumpers, both manu-
factured by Wago Japan, is used. Contact http://www.wa-
