K3HB-S
Linear Sensor Indicator
Visual clarity and instantaneous measurement.
Control status and judgement results can be ascertained
at a glance using the display color and position meter.

2Linear Sensor Indicator K3HB-S
Features
■Intelligent
●High-speed Response at 2,000 Times per Second
Capable of high-speed sampling at 2,000 times/second.
Peak-hold and bottom-hold functions allow accurate mea-
surement of peak and bottom values.
●Calculations Based on Two Input Signals
Calculations, such as K−A, A+B, A−B, and K−(A+B), can be
performed on two analog input signals. This enables highly
precise thickness and level-difference measurement. The
input ranges can be set independently so, for example, sig-
nals between 4 and 20 mA can be handled by one input while
signals between 1 and 5 V are handled by the other.
●A Wide Variety of Measurement Functions Including
Timing Signal Input
Choose the input processing method suitable for the applica-
tion from a selection of five measurement modes, such as
sampling hold, peak hold, and bottom hold.
●Modular Construction for Adapting to Various Specifi-
cations
■Clear
●Red-Green Display Allows Easy Recognition of Judg-
ment Results
The measurement value display can be set to switch between
red and green in accordance with the status of comparative
outputs. This means that the status can be ascertained at a
distance.
●Position Meter Enables Easy Monitoring of Operating
Status Trends
The present value with respect to the measurement or display
range (full scale) can be viewed on a bar display. This means
that the operating status can be grasped intuitively, allowing
easy judgement of levels and threshold values.
●Equipped with SV Display for Reliable Setting
Both the parameter name and value set for that parameter
can be viewed at the same time in setting mode.
●Short Body with Depth of Only 95 mm (from Behind
the Front Panel)
A short body of only 95 mm contributes to the development of
slimmer and smaller control panels and installations.

Operation
■Operations in RUN Level
Displaying the Maximum and Minimum
Values
When the measurement value is displayed, the maximum and mini-
mum values can be displayed by pressing the MAX/MIN Key.
The maximum and minimum values can be reset by holding down
the MAX/MIN Key for 1 s min.
Displaying and Changing Comparative
Set Values
•When the measurement value, maximum value, or minimum value
is displayed, pressing the MODE Key will display comparative set
values HH, H, L, and LL (in order) in the SV display.
•To change comparative set values, select the comparative set value
to be changed with the MODE Key and press the SHIFT Key. The
SV display will flash. Change the comparative set value with the
SHIFT and UP Keys. (This is possible only if setting change protect
is OFF.)
Setting and Releasing Forced-zero
Setting Forced-zero
The forced-zero function allows references values to be set as 0.
•When the measurement value is displayed, pressing the UP Key
will shift the displayed value to 0. After this, measurement will be
performed.
•If forced-zero is prohibited in the protect level, it cannot be set using
the UP Key. The default setting for forced-zero prohibition is OFF.
•The zero status indicator will be lit when forced-zero is set.
•Measurement values obtained when forced-zero is set (shifted val-
ues) will be saved if the power is reset.
Releasing Forced-zero
•Forced-zero can be released by holding down the UP Key for 1 s
min. The zero status indicator will turn OFF.

Initializing Settings
All settings can be initialized using the following parameter.
Use this function when, for example, redoing all settings starting from
the delivery state.
Note: This operation willreturn all settings to their default values. The
present settings will be lost. Before performing this operation, it
is recommended that a record is made of the present settings.

Note: 1. The parameters will be initialized. If the problem still persists after performing initialization, repair is necessary.
2. If there is an error in input A only, or if there is an error in both inputs A and B, a.err is displayed, and if there is an error in input B only,
b.err is displayed.

Dimensions
Note: All units are in millimeters unless otherwise indicated.
Application Examples
Height Measurement/Discrimination of
Objects
The following operations are possible with K3HB-S:
•With a synchronous sensor, the sampling hold parameter makes it
possible to display the height of an object and hold its value.
•The eight switchable banks make it possible for the K3HB-S to
measure different kinds of objects smoothly.
•With the forced zero function, zero calibration can be done with
ease.

Measurement of Disc Eccentricity
The following operations are possible with K3HB-S:
•The peak-to-peak hold function can be used for simple eccentricity
measurement by measuring the difference between the maximum
and minimum values for linear sensor signals that change continu-
ously.
•Measurements are taken while the timing input (the pushbutton
switch in the following diagram) is ON and the last result is held
when it is OFF.
•Applications such as measuring shaft eccentricity are possible.
(Similar applications are possible for non-metallic objects using an
ultrasonic displacement sensor.)

Measurement of Panel Thickness
The following operations are possible with the K3HB-S:
•Calculation mode K–(A+B) can be used to convert panel thickness
to actual size and measure it from the outputs of two displacement
sensors.
•The forced-zero function can be used for one-touch deviation mea-
surement from a reference panel thickness.
