The mine is equipped with the following target sensors:
Tilt sensor - functions when the mine is tilted by more than 10° from its horizontal position or when the mine is displaced with an acceleration exceeding 0.05 m/sec;
Vibration sensor - functions when seismic ground vibrations caused by train movement occur. At a train speed within the range of 30-160 km/h, the sensor functions when 35 meters remain to the head of the train; at lower speeds, the sensor functions at a distance of 0 to 35 meters;
Dual tilt sensor - functions when the position of the mine changes by more than 10°, regardless of the initial position of the mine; therefore, the MZU-2 mine is not subject to disarming.
When laying mines on railways and at facilities, the MZU-2 is emplaced according to a principle similar to the MZU, but at a depth of 0.1-0.3 meters.
When used as a booby trap, it is emplaced similarly to railway mining, with concealment using personal belongings and other items, or in a wardrobe or desk drawer, with the tilt sensor activated, and may be detonated by radio signal.
