 Mounting Instructions

Installation environment

•  Do not use the unit in places where it may receive excessive 

shocks. Otherwise the inside of the unit may be damaged or the 
unit may become unable to produce normal output signals.

•  Locate the measuring unit at least 10 cm away from a strong 

magnetic source. (Th

 e measuring unit must not be used in 

magnetic fi elds exceeding 5 mT.)

•  Do not place the measuring unit where it is exposed to splash of 

water or oil.

Mounting

•  Be  sure  to  turn  off  the power switch of the digital tolerance 

indicator before connecting or disconnecting the output cable.

•  When attaching and removing the feeler, use the supplied 

spanner. Be careful not to apply torque exceeding 0.1 N·m to the 
spindle. Th

  is could lead to a breakdown.

 

To  prevent  the  feeler  from  becoming  loose,  it  is  recommended 
to  either  attach  the  supplied  spring  washer  (nominal  size:  2.5) 
or use a screw lock. (tightening torque reference value: 0.05–
0.06 N·m)

•  Fix the cable in a suitable position to prevent possible cable 

breakage. Never handle the cable by forcibly pulling or bending 
it. (Inside bend radius 50 mm or more)

• Th

  e measuring accuracy depends on the mounting parallelism. 

Adjust the squareness to the measuring surface or the parallelism 
to the movement to within 0.02 mm/14 mm.

• Aft er the stem is secured, do not apply force in the rotational 

direction. Th

  is could cause a failure.

• Th

  e measuring unit comprises ball bearings. Th

 erefore, chucking 

the stem of the measuring unit too tightly when mounting may 
damage the spindle and prevent its smooth motion.

•  Attach the stem by tightening a screw into the slot as shown 

in Fig. 2. Never attach by screw threading in the 

φ

8 mm hole 

vertical direction, pressing the stem, and then tightening with a 
screw. Th

  is could result in poor sliding and low precision.

•  Be  absolutely  sure  to  chuck  the  stem  part  when  mounting  the 

measuring unit.

•  Using Fig. 2 as a reference, select which holder to have ready at 

the mounting side.

•  When mounting onto a machine, use of the Flange Adaptor 

DZ830F (optional accessory) is recommended for preventing 
damage to the measuring unit due to over-tightening.

•  For the mounting procedure, please refer to the Instruction 

Manual supplied with the DZ830F.

 Maintenance

•  Calibration is recommended every year.
•  An anti-dust bellows available as an optional accessory can 

be mounted to the spindle part of this unit. Organic solvents, 
ozone, ultraviolet rays, and other adverse conditions in the 
ambient atmosphere can cause rapid deterioration of the anti-
dust bellows. When using in these environments, replace anti-
dust bellows periodically (every six months to one year).

  When providing an IP67 protection grade

•  Please use the optional DZ830BL bellows set.

 Troubleshooting

Th

  e operating status of the measuring unit can be checked using the LED 

indicator.

Remedial action

Lights in blue.

The power is turned on. Normal operation 
is now performed. The reference point has 
been detected.

-

Blinks in blue.

The power is turned on.
The reference point standby status is 
established or the reference point is being 
detected.

When the reference point is used, turn on the power with the spindle 
extended as far as possible, and then move the spindle 1.5 mm or more.
When the power is turned on with the spindle stopped near the reference 
point position, it may not be possible to detect the reference point or the 
reference point may shift.
When the reference point will not be used, set the reference point use setting 
to OFF at the digital tolerance indicator.

Blinks in red.

The signal level of the measuring unit is 
abnormal.

After dealing with the factor suspected to be responsible for the alarm, turn 
the power back on.
If the same symptoms persist even after the power has been turned back 
on, the measuring unit or digital tolerance indicator might be malfunctioned.

Lights in red.

The maximum response speed has been 
exceeded. The signal level of the measuring 
unit is abnormal. Serial communication 
trouble has occurred. Normal operation 
cannot be performed due to the eff ects 
such as external noise etc.
