Making Invisible Visible with Luminescence Sensors
The luminescence sensors are suitable for detecting markings on different surfaces and materials. The sensors work effectively even under harsh ambient conditions, such as high temperatures, and can reliably detect luminescent markings during fast processes. Thanks to the IO-Link 1.1 communication interface, the luminescence sensors can be used flexibly and enable efficient data transmission. Using a filter offers the option of restricting the detectable wavelength range and thus hiding interfering background luminescences.
High Reliability
Simple and reliable detection of the smallest markings, even with the lowest amounts of luminophores

Product Overview
Wide Range of Uses with the 1P Format
The technology of the luminescence sensors is housed in the universally usable housing in 1P format (50 × 50 × 20 mm). It features a stable plastic housing with protection class IP67, which enables the photoelectronic sensors to be used even in humid environments.
Advantages of the 1P Format for Luminescence Sensors
Simple parameterization via IO-Link for fast process data transfer
Innovative display unit for simple alignment and accurate diagnosis
Printed QR code for quick access to product information
Simple setting via teach-in for optimal adaptation of applications
2 mutually independent switching outputs
1P: One Format, a Wide Range of Functions
In addition to luminescence sensors, wenglor’s portfolio also includes five other functional principles in this format: Through-beam sensors, laser distance sensors Time-of-Flight, reflex sensors with background suppression, retro-reflex sensors for transparent objects as well as universal retro-reflex sensors all offer users a wide range of industrial automation options.
