The color mark sensor includes a 2m PVC four-core shielded cable.
RGBW Multi-Color Detection for Precise Color Mark Sensing
- The color mark sensor adopts red, green, blue, and white light sources, allowing stable detection of different color marks. Adjustable sensitivity helps adapt to various color contrasts and surface conditions.
- The detection range is 10mm±2mm or 9mm, with a small spot size of Φ0.5–Φ1.5 mm. The light rays should be perpendicular to the target surface within ±15°, ensuring consistent and reliable signal output.
- Response time is selectable among 0.1–1ms, 50μs, and 200/500μs, enabling real-time monitoring on high-speed production lines. Fast response reduces missed detection and false triggering.
- The color mark sensor supports light-on and dark-on output modes, with a red LED indicator for easy status checking. Sensitivity is adjustable to fine-tune detection for different color mark applications.
Industrial-Grade NPN Output with Rugged Protection
- The color mark sensor provides NPN output with a maximum load current of 200mA, compatible with PLC and control systems. The supply voltage is DC 10–30V±10%, and the consumption current is below 45mA.
- It includes multiple protection circuits: power reverse polarity protection, short-circuit protection, over-current protection, and wrong connection protection, improving safety and service life.
- The housing is made of metal or engineering plastics, with an IP67 protection class. It operates in temperatures from -15°C to 65°C and stores from -15°C to 80°C.
- A standard 2m Φ5.4 PVC four-core shielded cable with sheath is included. The compact structure allows simple installation without complex mechanical parts.
