Precautions for Safe Use
Please observe the following precautions for safe use of the products.
(1) Installation Environment
• Do not use the product in environments where it can be exposed to inflammable/
explosive gas.
• Install the Amplifier Unit in such a way that the ventilation holes are not blocked.
• To secure the safety of operation and maintenance, do not install the product close to
high-voltage devices and power devices.
• During installation, make sure that screws are tightened firmly.
(2) Power Supply and Wiring
• The supply voltage must be within the rated range (DC24V±10%).
• Reverse connection of the power supply is not allowed.
• Open-collector outputs should not be short-circuited.
• Use the power supply within the rated load.
• High-voltage lines and power lines must be wired separately from this product. Wiring
them together or placing them in the same duct may cause induction, resulting in mal-
function or damage.
(3) Others
• During installation, make sure that screws are tightened firmly.
• Do not attempt to dismantle, repair, or modify the product.
• Dispose of this product as industrial waste.
• Should you notice any abnormalities, immediately stop use, turn OFF the power sup-
ply, and contact your OMRON representative.

Introduction
Precautions for Correct Use
Please observe the following precautions to prevent failure to operate, malfunctions, or
undesirable effects on product performance.
(1) Installation Site
Do not install the product in locations subjected to the following conditions:
• Ambient temperature outside the rating
• Rapid temperature fluctuations (causing condensation)
• Relative humidity outside the range of 35 to 85%
• Presence of corrosive or flammable gases
• Presence of dust, salt, or iron particles
• Direct vibration or shock
• Reflection of intense light (such as other laser beams or electric arc-welding
machines)
• Direct sunlight or near heaters
• Water, oil, or chemical fumes or spray
• Strong magnetic or electric field
(2) Power Supply and Wiring
• When using a commercially available switching regulator, make sure that the FG ter-
minal is grounded.
• If surge currents are present in the power lines, connect surge absorbers that suit the
operating environment.
• Before turning ON the power after the product is connected, make sure that the power
supply voltage is correct, there are no incorrect connections (e.g. load short-circuit)
and the load current is appropriate. Incorrect wiring may result in breakdown of the
product.
• Before connecting/disconnecting the Sensor Head, make sure that the Smart Sensor
is turned OFF. The Smart Sensor may break down if the Sensor Head is connected or
disconnected while the power is ON.
• Use only combinations of Sensor Heads and Sensor Controllers specified in this man-
ual.
• Do not turn the power OFF in the following instances
-Immediately after the MENU mode or ADJ mode is switched to the RUN mode
-During startup in the RUN mode
-Wait for the ENABLE signal to turn ON before turning the power OFF as the bank
data may be initialized.

Precautions for Correct Use
(3) Orientation when Installing the Amplifier Unit
(4) Maintenance and Inspection
• Do not use thinner, benzene, acetone or kerosene to clean the Sensor Head and
Amplifier Unit.
• If large dust particles adhere to the front Panel of the Sensor Head, use a blower
brush (used to clean camera lenses) to blow them off. Do not blow the dust particles
with your mouth.
• To remove smaller dust particles, wipe gently with a soft cloth. Do not use excessive
force to wipe off dust particles. Scratches on the front Panel may cause errors.
(5) Optical Axis and Detection Range
The center of the guide light and detection range are for reference only.
The center of the optical axis sometimes differs according to each Sensor Head. Dur-
ing installation, be sure to check the center of the image and the detection range on the
LCD monitor of the Amplifier Unit.
(6) Ventilation Film
• Do not peel off or probe the ventilation film with a sharp-pointed object. If you so, the
specifications of the protective structure may no longer be satisfied.
• Do not block the ventilation film. Doing so might cause the front panel to be con-
densed.

ZFV Smart sensor Features
ZFV Smart sensor Features
The ZFV sensor senses objects by its “surface.” How objects are being sensed can be
easily set while verifying on the LCD monitor.
The ZFV also incorporates a 250,000-pixel CCD equivalent to that of a Conventional
machine vision sensor. This allows presence detection and recognition of different objects,
which have up till now been performed visually, to be executed fast and accurately.
(1) Compact Sensor Head
The LED light emitting section and lens are built into the compact Sensor Head. The
Sensor Head takes up little installation space.
(2) Easy Installation and Adjustment
The range that can be sensed by Sensor Head can be confirmed by the guide light. So,
the Sensor Head can be installed by viewing the position of the guide light and its
focus.

■Application Expanded Configuration
Up to five Amplifier Units can be gang-mounted.
When the Amplifier Unit is gang-mounted, a wider range of applications can be sup-
ported as simultaneous processing of multiple areas and measurement items can be
combined.
The image captured by the Sensor Head is transferred to the leftmost Amplifier Unit, so
connect to the rightmost Amplifier Unit.
