This adaptable sensor excels at precise object sensing and distance evaluations, employing advanced Pulse Ranging Technology (PRT) to deliver consistently accurate and repeatable outcomes. Engineered for straightforward integration, it offers both analog (4–20 mA) and digital (push-pull) outputs, along with an innovative IO-Link interface. This extensive connectivity facilitates effortless incorporation into contemporary control systems, establishing it as a crucial element for optimizing efficiency and dependability across numerous industrial contexts.Key Features Extended Measurement Capability: Accurately identify objects and gauge distances spanning from 0.2 meters up to an impressive 15 meters. Pulse Ranging Technology (PRT): Experience top-tier precision and dependability, even under challenging conditions, thanks to advanced PRT measurement. Eye-Safe Laser Operation: Utilizes a modulated visible red laser diode (660 nm) classified as Class 1, ensuring safe use without requiring special precautions. Flexible Output Options: Equipped with a 4–20 mA analog output (featuring short-circuit and overload protection) and a robust push-pull digital output (with short-circuit and reverse polarity protection) for adaptable control. IO-Link Connectivity: Seamlessly integrate into modern automation setups with the IO-Link V1.0 interface (COM2, 38.4 kBit/s) providing a 16-bit process data width. Rapid Response Time: Benefit from a swift response of just 10 ms and a switching frequency of 50 Hz, ideal for high-speed applications. Simplified Configuration: The integrated Teach-In function significantly streamlines setup and commissioning. Clear Visual Indicators: An intuitive green LED for operational status, two yellow LEDs for switching status, and dynamic green/yellow LED flashing patterns for Teach-In status provide immediate visual cues. Intuitive Control Interface: Easily adjust operating modes and threshold settings using a convenient 5-step rotary switch. Technical Specifications Operating Voltage: Optimal performance with 10–30 V DC in Standard Mode and 18–30 V DC in IO-Link Mode. No-Load Supply Current: Highly efficient with ≤ 70 mA at 24 V DC. Availability Time: Rapid power-up in under 1.5 seconds at 20 °C. Measurement Accuracy: Exceptional precision with an absolute accuracy of ±25 mm and a repeat accuracy of less than 5 mm. Ambient Light Immunity: Maintains reliable function even in bright conditions, up to 50,000 Lux. Temperature Resilience: Operates flawlessly across a wide ambient temperature range from -30 °C to +55 °C (-22 °F to +131 °F) and stores safely from -30 °C to +70 °C (-22 °F to +158 °F). Robust Enclosure: IP67-rated protection against dust and water ingress, making it suitable for tough environments. Secure Electrical Connection: Features a dependable 4-pin M12 x 1 connector for straightforward and secure wiring.
