Page 7 Caution Do not use it exceeding the rated voltage. There is a possibility of failure and fire. Do not connect amplifier units to AC power supply. Risk of explosion. ZW-7000/5000 Series User's Manual...
Page 8 Recommended power supply: S8VS-06024 (Omron, DC24 V 2.5 A 60 W) • The supply voltage must be within the rated range (DC24 V ± 10 %).
Page 9 • Handling fiber cables Use them in compliance with the following. This may result in damage to the fiber cable. - Fiber cable bend radiuses must be at least 20 mm. - Do not yank hard on a fiber cable. - Do not step on a fiber cable or place anything heavy on it.
Page 10 • Whenever any trouble, including, strange odor smelled, the body overheated or smoke escaped, was found, immediately stop the operation, and consult an OMRON branch or sales office with the system shut down. • Do not drop or make a strong impact on the unit.
Page 11 □□ Use the optional extension fiber cable ZW-XF70 R is suitable for the ZW-7000 series, and ZW-XF50 for the ZW-5000 series. Only one cable can be extended. • Be sure to use a Sensor Head and Calibration ROM with the same serial number. A pair with different serial numbers cannot operate normally.
Page 12 4. Maintenance and Inspection • Do not use thinner, benzene, acetone or kerosene to clean the Sensor Head, fiber cable and Sensor Controller. If large dust particles adhere to the emitter/receiver of the Sensor Head or Sensor Controller, use a blower brush (used to clean camera lenses) to blow them off. Do not blow the dust particles with your mouth.
