Expert™ Color Mark Sensors
Color Registration Mark Sensor with Solid-State Light Source
Printed in USA
12/06
P/N 59574 rev. B
Features
• Outstanding color contrast sensitivity; detects 16 levels of gray scale.
• Reliable detection of the toughest color mark contrasts, including 20% yellow
against white
• Three sensing beam colors: blue, green and white, depending on model
• Fast, 50-microsecond response
• Easy-to-set automatic Expert-style configuration options: Static and Dynamic TEACH
and Window SET, plus Manual Adjust for fine tuning via push button or remote input
• Non-volatile memory
• Ten-element light bar for clear display of received signal strength
• Fixed-convergent sensing at 10 ±3 mm (0.39" ±0.12")
• Rectangular 1.2 mm x 3.8 mm (0.05" x 0.15") sensing image at 10 mm from the lens
• Horizontal or vertical sensing image, depending on model (see table below)
• Rugged zinc alloy die-cast housing with high-quality acrylic lens suitable for food
processing applications; rated IP67, NEMA 6
• Bipolar (NPN/PNP) discrete outputs with three delay settings (0, 20 or 40 ms)
• 0 to 10 mA analog output; value provides an indication of signal strength.
• Integral cable or QD connector, depending on model
Models
* 9 m (30') cables are available by adding suffix “W/30” to the model number of the cabled version (e.g., R55ECG1 W/30). A model with a QD
connector requires an accessory mating cable. See page 12.
