Reflex Sensors for Measuring Tasks
The sensors measure the distance between the sensor and the object. They work with laser light (red), red light or infrared light after the triangulation principle. For this reason, the object’s color, shape and surface characteristics have practically no influence on measurement results. A voltage within a range of 0…10 V DC is made available so an analog output or as current value from 4…20 mA.
Applications
- High precision positioning
- Thickness, height and distance measurements
- Static and dynamic differential measurements
- Diameter monitoring
- Vibration measurement
- Contour measurement
- Monitoring of two-layer materials

The output signal of the diffuse light sensor with CMOS line array technology is practically independent of brightness, color and surface characteristics of the object to be measured.
The measured value can be read out as a voltage value within a range of 0…10 V, as a current value within a range of 4…20 mA, or in digital format via the RS-232 interface. A rising or falling characteristic curve can be selected.
Optionally high speed (Speed-Mode) or high resolution (Resolution-Mode) can be selected. Teach-In, filter functions, error outputs and a RS-232 interface are available. The measuring range can be selected individually within the sensor’s working range. A precise error message is generated if the measuring range is exceeded, or in the event of non-measurable surfaces or system errors.

These sensors are equipped with an analog output, as well as a switching output. ON and OFF points can be adjusted with the help of two potentiometers. The devices are thus especially well suited for Go/No-Go applications. The sensors function in accordance with the principle of triple beam correction, rules out edge effects and angle error independent of mounting position.
Laser Class
Sensors with laser class 1 have the smallest laser capacity according to EN 60825-1 and make warning signs redundant. Due to their higher light capacity sensors with laser class 2 achieve better specifications.
