Robust fiber optic CFS sensors for industrial applications
Operating the optoCONTROL CLS1000 controllers requires sensors that are used on the measuring point. Depending on the measurement task, the sensors can be individually combined. The high-quality sensors with fiber optics are characterized by small installation dimensions and robust materials. This makes them particularly suitable for mechanical stress and harsh ambient conditions such as high temperatures. The sensor can also be used in restricted areas as the sensor head requires a minimum of installation space.
In addition to detecting transparent and semi-transparent objects, the transmission sensors are ideally suited for area detection, as a light barrier, for distinguishing sizes and diameters, for tolerance inspection and for web edge detection. The sensor arrangement in transmitted light mode (180:0), combined with the performance of the CLS1000 series, provides reliable results. The fluctuating distance between the measuring object and the fiber optic sensor do not affect the measurement result. The transmission sensor can be used universally, but is also suitable for customer-specific adaptions.
The high-quality reflex sensors, in combination with the high performance of the CLS1000 series, offer even more precise detection of a wide variety of objects and structures. In addition to the detection range of up to 430 mm, the 0°:0° measurement arrangement enables use in a wide range of applications, such as fill level monitoring, detection of the position and location of objects, and as a probe. The reflex sensor can be used universally, but is also suitable for customer-specific adaptions.
