1.2 Handling Precautions
■I n this manual, the following symbols are used to indicate safety information that must be observed.
Indicates an action that is prohibited.
Indicates an action that must be taken.
Indicates a matter that requires caution.
<Reference>
■ Handling precautions
Specications
● This device has been developed / produced for industrial use only.
● This product (controller and sensor head receiver) uses an EEPROM. The EEPROM has a
service life of one million setting operations.
● Do not use this product outside the range of the specications. Risk of an accident and prod-
uct damage.
There is also a risk of a noticeable reduction of service life.
Power supply
● Verify that the supply voltage uctuations are within the rating.
● If power is supplied from a commercial switching regulator, ensure that the frame ground (F.G.)
terminal of the power supply is connected to an actual ground.
● Do not use during the initial transient time after the power supply is switched ON.
● To ensure performance, use the product at least 30 minutes (warm-up time) after the power
is turned ON.
Indicates supplemental information.
Wiring
● Make sure that the power is OFF before performing wiring or connection work for the control-
ler.
● Note that there is a risk of damage or burning if the load is short-circuited or incorrectly wired.
● After you have completed wiring work, check the wiring carefully before switching on the
power.
● Do not wire in parallel with a high-voltage line or power line, or run through the same conduit.
Doing so may result in malfunctioning due to induction.
● Do not apply stress such as excessive bending or pulling to the extracted part of a cable,
● When connecting the sensor head connection cable to this product, do not apply force to the
product.
WUME-HGT-31-3
Before Using This Product
Usage environment
● This product is suitable for indoor use only.
● The light emitting and receiving surfaces of the sensor head must be free of water, oil, n-
gerprints, and other substances that refract light as well as dust, grit, and other objects that
intercept light.
If stains or dirt become attached to the sensor head surfaces, wipe them with a lint-free soft
cloth or lens cleaning paper. If the surfaces are very dirty, wipe o dirt using a cotton swab (or
similar material) moistened with absolute alcohol.
● Do not allow ambient light such as sunlight to directly hit the light receiving section of the
sensor head. In particular, if precision is required, use this product by mounting a douser (or
similar material) on the sensor head.
● When a measured object with a strong specular reflection component (such as glass or
specular reector) is detected, it may not be detected correctly due to the inuences of light
reected from the measured object. In such a case, install a pair of emitter and receiver at
a certain angle so that reected light does not hit the emitter or receiver. After adjusting the
angle, always check the beam axis. After checking the beam axis, if the beam axis is aligned,
register the reference waveform. If the beam axis is misaligned, readjust the beam axis, and
register the reference waveform.
● Avoid using this product in environments where condensation occurs due to sudden tem-
perature change.
● Avoid dust, dirt, and steam.
● Avoid using the product in atmospheres that contain corrosive or other harmful gases.
● Ensure that the product does not come into contact with organic solvents such as thinner.
● Ensure that the product does not come into contact with strong acid or alkaline.
● Ensure that the product does not come into contact with oil or grease.
● This product cannot be used in atmospheres that contain ammable or explosive gases.
● Performance may not be satisfactory in a strong electromagnetic eld.
● Do not use this product in locations subject to severe vibration or shock.
● This product is a precision device. Do not drop or otherwise subject to shock. Risk of product
damage.
● Take care not to touch any terminals in the connector or allow foreign objects to enter the
connector.
● The sensor head is watertight, but the connector is not dustproof, waterproong, or corro-
sion-resistant due to its structural reasons, so measurements cannot be taken under the water or in the rain. Pay attention to the environment where the product is used.
Other matters
● Never attempt to disassemble, repair, or modify the product.
● When the product becomes unusable or unneeded, dispose of the product appropriately as
industrial waste.

Overview of HG-T Series
3.1 Principle of Measurement
The sensor head emits belt-shaped laser beams from its emitter and receives them with the
light receiving element (CMOS) of its receiver. If a measured object is inserted between the
emitter and receiver of the sensor head, the bright section (light entry section) that receives
laser beams and the dark section (light interception section) that is the shade of the measured
object are projected on to the CMOS. The dierence in the amount of received light between
each pixel of the CMOS is used to detect position information about the border between the
light entry section and the light interception section and measure the object.

3.2 Role of Controllers
Sensor head measured values are sent from the sensor head to the controller. Measured values
can be held in the controller and calculations performed. Output judgment is based on judgment
values. The controller is equipped with three outputs (OUT 1, OUT 2, and OUT 3) and with indicators that show the respective results of the three outputs.
