Product Description

The zws sensor offers a non-contact
measurement of the distance to an
object which must be positioned
within the sensor’s detection zone.
The switched output is set in depen-
dence of the adjusted detect dis-
tance.
Via the push-button, the detect dis-
tance and operating mode can be
adjusted (teach-in). Two LEDs indi-
cate operation and the state of the
switched output.

Safety Notes

Read the operating instructions
prior to start-up.

Connection, installation and
adjustment works may only be
carried out by expert personnel.

No safety component in
accordance with the EU Machine
Directive

Proper use

zws ultrasonic sensors are used for
non-contact detection of objects.

Installation

Mount the sensor at the installa-
tion site with the aid of the
enclosed mounting plate.
Maximum torque: 0,5 Nm

Connect a connection cable to the
M8 device plug.

 Avoid mechanical load on the con-

nector.

Detect points at operating range

Operating modes

Three operating modes are available
for the switched output:

Operation with one detect point

The switched output is set if the ob-
ject falls below the set detect point.

Window mode

The switched output is set if the ob-
ject is within the set window mar-
gins.

Two-way reflective barrier

The switched output is set if the ob-
ject is between sensor and reflector.

Synchronization

You can synchronize as many sensors
as you like.

Apply a square-wave signal  to the
sync-input  with pulse width t

i

 and

repetition rate t

(Fig. 3 and

technical data). 

A high level on the sync-input will
deactivate the sensor.

Checking operation mode

In normal mode shortly press the
push-button.

The green LED stops shining for one
second, then it will show the current

operating mode:

1 x flashing = operation with one

switching point

2 x flashing = window mode
3 x flashing = reflective barrier

After a break of 3 s the green LED
shows the  

output function:

1 x flashing = NOC
2 x flashing = NCC

Maintenance

microsonic sensors are maintenance-
free. In case of excess caked-on dirt
we recommend cleaning the white
sensor surface
