Safety Precautions

Symbols

The following symbols are used for the list of precautions to ensure safety and to prevent personal injury and/or property damage when using the device.
It indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in minor or moderate injury.
It indicates a situation which, if not avoided, could result in product damage as well as property damage.
It indicates additional information on proper operation.

General precautions

Verify that this device is operating normally in terms of functionality and
performance before the start of work and before the start of device operation.
Take appropriate safety measures to avoid any damage in case of device
failure.
KEYENCE is unable to guarantee the function or performance of this
camera if it is used in a manner that differs from this camera specifications contained in this manual or if this camera is modified.
The functions and performance of this camera may not be satisfactory
depending on the operating conditions or operating environment if it is used in combination with other devices. Use it with other devices only after careful consideration.
Do not use this camera for protecting the human body.
• Turn off the power of this camera immediately if one of the following incidents occurs. If you continue to use the device while the abnormality persists, fire, electric shock, or malfunction may result. Contact your KEYENCE office for repair service.
When liquid such as water, oil, and chemicals or other foreign materials enter inside the unit
CAUTION
When the strong impact is applied or the housing is damaged When smoke, foul odor or abnormal noise is emitted from the unit
• Do not dismantle the camera, modify it, or connect it to anything other than the supported controllers. Doing so may result in fire, electrical shock, or equipment malfunction.
• Be sure to power off this camera and its accessories, when you plug/unplug the cable. Otherwise a fire, electrical shock, burn or malfunction could result.

Tips on Correct Use

Supported controllers

This camera is dedicated for use with the XG-8000 Series (version 5.4.0000 or later; excluding the XG-8800 and XG-8800L), XG-7000 Series (version
4.3.0000 or later), and CV-X Series (version 3.1.0000 or later) controllers.

Handling

Mounting

Be sure that the values are appropriate as specified below or lower when mounting.
Tightening torque . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .0.5 Nm
Tension . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 30 N

Precautions on settings

Depending on the photograph conditions (for example, when the camera sensitivity is increased or the shutter speed is decreased) and the temperature of the usage environment, point defects may occur and narrow lines may be displayed on the screen. This is not a malfunction. These phenomena arise due to the structure of the camera and the special characteristics of CMOS sensors. If these phenomena occur, examples of ways that you can rectify the situation include lowering the usage temperature, lowering the camera sensitivity, and increasing the shutter speed and ensuring that there is sufficient illumination by using an external light source. You may also be able to improve the situation by using an illumination expansion unit such as the CA-DC21E to synchronize the illumination and the shutter.

General Cautions regarding CE Marking

KEYENCE checked this product's conformance to the EMC Directive with the simultaneous use of supported controllers. Therefore, see the user's manual of the supported controller that you are using when using this product in the EU nations. This is not to guarantee the conformity to the EMC Directive for the entire mechanical system created by the customer.

Mounting and Adjusting the Lens

Selecting the lens

The chart shown below indicates the relationship between the image capturing field of view (the vertical direction of the camera) and the distance to the object working distance. Refer to the chart to select the appropriate lens.

Indications in the chart

The mark in the chart indicates the extension length of the Extension tube. (The Extension tube is installed between the lens and the camera.)
The asterisk (*) in the chart indicates the lens model.

• Locations where this camera is exposed to direct sunlight
• Locations where the surrounding air temperature exceeds or drops below the specification range, or where the temperature changes rapidly
• Locations which are poorly ventilated
• Locations where the relative humidity drops below 35% or exceeds 85% RH, or where condensation occurs
• Locations where there are corrosive gas or flammable gas
• Locations where there are much dust, sodium, or iron powder
• Locations where water, oil, or chemicals may splash onto this camera
• Locations where this camera may be directly subjected to vibration or impact
NOTICENOTICE

• Locations where this camera may be affected by radiation noise or static electricity.
• Keep this unit and cables away from high-voltage cables or power lines. Otherwise, noise could cause malfunction or accident.
• The camera is connected to a frame ground. A current conducts between the power supply ground and the metal parts and metal connectors of the camera itself and of items such as the lens connected to the camera. Be sure to install the camera in an insulated fashion such as by using the included plastic mounting components. If an electric potential difference or noise occurs at the installation location while the camera is installed in an uninsulated fashion, camera damage or malfunctions may occur.
• In case of transpor tation, use the same packaging as when the unit was delivered to avoid damage.
• If the unit has any dirt on it, wipe it off with a cloth moistened with a mild detergent, then rub with a dry cloth. Do not rub with a wet cloth, benzene, thinner, or alcohol. Doing so could change the color or shape of the unit.
• Do not allow excessive light (sunlight or intense illumination) to enter into the camera for a long period of time. Doing so may cause the image capturing surface to be burnt or be damaged.
The values in the chart are typical values. Adjustment is required after mounting the lens.
