IV-HG15 Keyence IV Series Sensor Amplifier Expansion Unit
IV-HG15 is a Keyence IV Series sensor amplifier expansion unit. This module adds advanced vision inspection to the IV-HG series. It supports shape detection, color area, area, edge pixels, width/height, diameter, edge presence, pitch, position adjustment, high speed position adjustment, and OCR. As a result, it fits industrial automation lines that need fast, stable inspection.
Because this expansion unit connects to the main unit for power, no separate supply is needed. In addition, it offers 32 programs and 16 detection tools plus 1 position adjustment tool. It also has EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, and FTP client communication. Meanwhile, the RJ-45 8-pin connector supports 100BASE-TX and 10BASE-T.
Oiltech Controls supplies tested industrial surplus and refurbished options. Moreover, we verify each unit before shipment. This helps you keep obsolete control systems running. Therefore, contact us at info@oiltechcontrols.com or +86 158 8020 0923.

Installation Guide
Mount the IV-HG15 near the main unit. Keep the unit dry and cool. Then connect the 24 VDC supply from the main unit. After that, use the RJ-45 8-pin port for network access. Before wiring, set NPN or PNP output mode. Also set N.O. or N.C. output mode as needed.
Keep input and output cables away from high voltage lines. This reduces electrical noise. In addition, use the 6 inputs and 8 outputs for trigger, handshake, and result signals.
Setup and Maintenance Convenience
- 32 programs allow fast product changeover.
- 16 detection tools cover many inspection tasks.
- Position adjustment tool helps align parts.
- OCR supports character reading.
- EtherNet/IP and PROFINET simplify PLC integration.
- FTP client helps transfer image or result files.
Clean the unit with a dry cloth. Also check connectors and cables often. Moreover, verify output signals during scheduled maintenance. Because the unit weighs only approx. 150 g, it fits tight spaces.
Compatibility Notes
The IV-HG15 works as an expansion unit for the Keyence IV-HG series. It receives power from the main unit. Furthermore, it supports EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, and FTP client. However, it does not support communication expansion. Also, it is not a standalone sensor amplifier. Therefore, use it with a compatible IV-HG main unit.
Certifications and Compliance
