Keyence LR-ZB100N CMOS Sensor 2m

Keyence LR-ZB100N Laser Sensor

Product Introduction

The Keyence LR-ZB100N belongs to the LR-Z series of self-contained CMOS laser photoelectric sensors. This rectangular unit delivers reliable distance and contrast detection across a 35 to 100 mm range. Moreover, its compact body and 2 m cable suit tight production lines. The sensor uses a 660 nm red laser rated Class 1 for safe operation.

Technical Specifications

The LR-ZB100N provides stable detection with a standard detectable deviation of 1.5 mm at 35–50 mm and 3 mm at 50–100 mm. Its display resolution reaches 2 (0.2 mm), which supports fine adjustment on site. The spot diameter is approximately 2 x 1 mm at 100 mm, so small targets stay visible.

Response time is selectable at 1.5 ms, 10 ms, or 50 ms. Besides, a built-in timer offers OFF, ON-delay, OFF-delay, and one-shot modes. The output type is NPN open collector with a 30 VDC limit and 100 mA control current.

Electrical and Communication Details

Supply voltage ranges from 10 to 30 VDC with 10% ripple. Power consumption stays at 450 mW or less. At 24 V the draw is 18 mA or less; at 12 V it is 34 mA or less. Light-ON and Dark-ON modes are both selectable.

IO-Link v1.1 and COM2 at 38.4 kbps appear only on CB and C3P connector models. Therefore, this cable-type LR-ZB100N has no built-in communication port.

Mechanical and Environmental Parameters

The housing meets IP68, IP69K, and NEMA 4X / 6P / 13 ratings. Operating temperature spans -10 to +50 °C without freezing. Storage temperature spans -25 to +75 °C. Relative humidity of 35 to 85% RH is acceptable without condensation. The unit weighs about 110 g including the cable.

Installation Guide

First, mount the sensor with its bracket on a stable surface. Keep the spot centered on the target at the chosen distance. Next, connect the 2 m cable to a 10–30 VDC Class 2 or LPS supply. Then set Light-ON or Dark-ON mode to match your control logic.

After that, select the response time that fits your line speed. Use the display resolution of 0.2 mm for fine tuning. Finally, verify the output with a test target before full production.

FAQ

1. What is the detecting distance of the LR-ZB100N?
The LR-ZB100N detects targets from 35 to 100 mm. Deviation is 1.5 mm at close range and 3 mm at far range.

2. Does this model support IO-Link?
No. IO-Link v1.1 applies only to CB and C3P connector versions. This 2 m cable model has no built-in port.

3. What output type does the Keyence LR-ZB100N use?
It uses an NPN open collector output. The applied voltage is 30 VDC or less, and control current is 100 mA or less.

4. How fast is the response time?
Users can select 1.5 ms, 10 ms, or 50 ms. The 1.5 ms setting suits high-speed lines, while 50 ms reduces false triggers.

5. What is the protection rating?
The housing carries IP68 and IP69K ratings. It also meets NEMA 4X, 6P, and 13 standards for washdown areas.
