highly precise detection is required. Note • If a thin fiber unit is used, an adapter provided with the thin fiber unit will be
required.
About UL Certification Unless the correct adapter is connected, the thin fiber unit will not detect
targets correctly (the adapter is supplied with the fiber unit).
The FS-N series is UL and C-UL certified, and is compliant with the UL and CSA standards.
