Note:
1.Obtained by setting an OMRON standard measurement object at the measurement center distance and determining the average height of the beam line.
The conditions are given in the table below. However, satisfactory resolution cannot e attained in strong electromagnetic fields.
The minimum resolution of the ZG2-WDS8T/WDS3VT is 0.25 μm, even when the average number of operations is increased. Resolution does not go any lower.
| Model | CCD mode | Average No. of operations | Measurement object | |
| Regular reflective | Diffuse reflective | |||
| ZG2-WDS8T/ ZG2-WDS22/ ZG2-WDS70 | High-resolution mode | 64 | OMRON standard white alumina ceramic obje | |
| ZG2-WDS3VT | OMRON standard mirrored object | OMRON standard diffuse reflective object | ||
2.The tolerance for and ideal straight line obtained by determining the average height of and OMRON standard measurement object for the beam line.
The CCD high-resolution mode is used. Linearity varies depending on the measurement object.
| Model | Measurement object | |
| Regular reflective | Diffuse reflective | |
| ZG2-WDS8T/ZG2-WDS22/ZG2-WDS70 | OMRON standard white alumina ceramic object | |
| ZG2-WDS3VT | OMRON standard mirrored object | OMRON standard diffuse reflective object |
3.A value attained by using an aluminum jig to secure the distance between the Sensor Head and the measurement object. The CCD standard mode is used.
4.Defined as 1/e2 (13.5%) of the center light intensity.
This may be influenced when light leakage also exists outside the defined area and the reflectivity of the light around the measurement object is higher than that of the measurement object.
