Coaxial Polarized Retroreflective Sensor for Clear Object Detection with IO-Link
•
Reliably detects clear, transparent, or opaque objects — including PET, glass
containers, and transparent films
•
Coaxial optics enable reliable detection of targets to the face of the sensor with
no dead zone
•
ClearTracking automatic compensation algorithm provides long and reliable
operation by compensating for dust build up and ambient temperature changes
•
Fast response speed with low jitter for high speed bottling and packaging
applications
•
Bright, visible red light spot makes alignment easy
•
3 user-selectable thresholds optimize performance to the type of object being
detected
•
Easy configuration of sensor by remote teach input or tactile push button
•
Convenient mounting options available for 18 mm barrel or side mount
•
Bright indicator LEDs show operating status from 360°
•
IP67 rated ABS housing
•
IO-Link with programmable PNP/NPN output and input configurations using IO-
Link
WARNING: Not To Be Used for Personnel Protection
Never use this device as a sensing device for personnel protection. Doing so could lead to
serious injury or death. This device does not include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary
to allow its use in personnel safety applications. A sensor failure or malfunction can cause either an
energized or de-energized sensor output condition.
