The triangulation sensor, designated as ML6-8-H-40-RT/95/102, is engineered for standard applications with a compact design. It supports an adjustable detection range between 10 mm and 40 mm, with a maximum detection range of up to 50 mm. The device utilizes a modulated visible red light source, operating at a wavelength of 660 nm, ensuring precise object detection.

This sensor exhibits a significant black-white difference of approximately 3 mm, with a light spot diameter around 3 mm at 40 mm. Its opening angle measures about 5 degrees, allowing for effective background suppression commencing from 50 mm. The sensor operates under ambient light conditions with limits of 40,000 Lux for continuous light and 5,000 Lux for modulated light.

Electrical specifications include an operating voltage of 10 to 30 V DC and a no-load supply current of less than 25 mA. The output is NPN type, with features such as open collector short-circuit protection and reverse polarity protection. The sensor is capable of switching at a frequency of 1,000 Hz, with a response time of 0.5 ms and a maximum switching voltage of 30 V DC.

In terms of environmental resilience, the sensor has a degree of protection rated at IP67 and IP69K. It is constructed from ABS housing and PMMA optical face materials, designed to operate in temperatures ranging from -20 °C to 60 °C. The sensor also complies with EN 60947-5-2 and has undergone rigorous testing for shock and vibration re... [Read more]
