(1) Lighting part
This section emits light.
(2) Receiver part
This section captures the
image.
(3) Connector
This connector is connected
to the Amplifier Unit.
(4) Sensor Head mounting fixture
This fixture is for mounting the Sensor Head.
This fixture can be mounted on all of the four
mounting surfaces.
(5) Focus adjustment control
This control is used for adjusting the focus of the image.
(6) Ventilation film
This film prevents the front panel from condensation.
(7) Extra Light Connector
This connector is connected to the Extra Light.
The following graphs show the relationship between detection range and setting
distance for each model of Sensor Head.
Values differ according to each model of Sensor Head, so fully check the model before
using these graphs.
(Example)
When using a ZFX-SC50 Sensor Head at
a detection range of 20 mm required for
the location of the sensing object, the
setting distance of Sensor Head becomes
70mm.

Attach the mounting fixture (provided with the
Smart Sensor) to the side of the Sensor Head.
The mounting fixture can be installed on all of the
four mounting surfaces.
Insert a regular screwdriver into the gap (one of
the two gaps) between the mounting
fixture and the Sensor Head case, and remove the
mounting fixture.
Attach the ferrite core (provided with the Smart Sensor) to the case side and the
connector side of the Sensor Head.
・
ZFX-SC50/SC50W
(1) Align the two hooks on one side of the mounting
fixture with the two grooves on the Sensor Head
body (light emitting side).
(2) Press in the other hook.
Push down until you hear it snap into place.
(3) Make sure that the mounting fixture is firmly
fixed on the Sensor Head.
(1) Install the Sensor Head at the installation distance obtained in the above graphs.
(2) Turn the focus adjustment control
to the left and right to adjust the focus.
Before turning the focus adjustment control slightly to the left and right, make sure that
the guide light is not at the upper or lower limit positions. The focus adjustment control
is a multi-turn control. However, the control stops turning at the upper or lower limit
positions. Do not exert unnecessary force to turn the control at the upper or lower limit
positions as this might damage the control.
PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE USE
PRECAUTIONS FOR CORRECT USE
Please observe the following precautions to prevent failure to operate, malfunctions,
or undesirable effects on product performance.
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
(1) Installation Site
The center of the optical axis sometimes differs according to each Sensor Head. During
installation, be sure to check the center of the image and the detection range on the
LCD monitor of the Amplifier Unit.
(3) Optical Axis and Detection Range
Please observe the following precautions for safe use of the products.
･
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 off 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.

(1) Installation Environment
･
Do not use the product in environments where it can be exposed to inflammable /
explosive gas.
･
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.
(3) Others
･
Do not attempt to dismantle, repair, or modify the product.
･
Dispose of this product as industrial waste.
･
If abnormal odors, heating, or smoke occurs, stop using the Smart Sensor
immediately, turn OFF the power, and consult with your OMRON representative.
(2) Power Supply and Wiring
･
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 malfunction or damage.
(2) Power Supply and Wiring
･
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.
