CMOS Laser Sensor with Built-in Amplifier

ZX0

Stable Detection of Level Differences in

the Order of 0.1 mm

• Dependable detection without being influenced by color,

material, or surface conditions.

• Stable detection of small level differences or small

workpieces.

• Models with different distance specifications for installation in

essentially any location.

• Easy setup with one button.

• Compact design with built-in amplifier to reduce installation

work and space requirements.

Features

Refer to the Precautions for all Photoelectric

Sensors and Safety Precautions on page 5.

For the most recent information on models that have been certified for

safety standards, refer to your OMRON website.

A CMOS image sensor combines with a step-less laser power

adjustment algorithm to produce stable detection of all types of

workpieces from black rubber with low reflectivity to stainless

steel and other highly glossy materials.

The use of a CMOS image sensor ensures high

resolution and enables detection of small level

differences. An extremely narrow laser beam

spot ensures detection of small workpieces.

*2. Reference values at the center of sensing distance.

Models with four different distances, from long-distance to

short-distance detection, cover a wide range of user designs.

The built-in amplifier achieves a smaller body. And because you

do not need to install an amplifier unit, installation work and

footprint are reduced. Also, an IP67 body and robot cable are

used to eliminate installation environment restrictions.
