Pepperl+Fuchs 229654

The triangulation sensor is engineered for standard applications, offering a detection range adjustable from 15 mm to 150 mm. With a compact design, this sensor is equipped with a push-pull output and an M8 plug for connectivity. The Designation Code for this unit is ML6-8-H-150-RT/40b/65a/95/110.

It operates using a modulated visible red light source at 660 nm, achieving a maximum ambient light tolerance of 40,000 Lux under continuous light conditions and 5,000 Lux for modulated light. The sensor features a light spot diameter of approximately 6 mm when detecting at 150 mm.

In terms of electrical specifications, the sensor requires an operating voltage between 10 to 30 V DC and maintains a no-load supply current of less than 25 mA. The output is short-circuit and reverse polarity protected, with a maximum switching voltage of 30 V DC and a current capacity of 100 mA. The response time is 500 µs, supporting a switching frequency of up to 1,000 Hz.

Its mechanical design boasts a degree of protection rated at IP67/IP69K, ensuring resilience in various environments. The sensor is housed in ABS material, and the optical face is made from PMMA. Its compact dimensions are 31.4 mm in height, 13.9 mm in width, and 18 mm in depth, with a total mass of approximately 10 g. The unit can operate in ambient temperatures ranging from -20 to 60 °C, and it can be stored at temperatures between -40 and 75 °C.
