Overview
R55 Expert (R55E) offers maintenance-free, solid-state reliability for all color contrasts found
in common product and material registration applications. Fast 50-microsecond sensing
response produces excellent registration repeatability, even in ultra-high-speed applications.
This fast response, coupled with the small 1.2 x 3.8 mm (0.05" x 0.15") sensing image, allows
color marks to be made small and inconspicuous, while being reliably sensed.
The construction of the R55E is extremely robust, with a die-cast metal housing, plastic
optics, and IP67 and NEMA 6 leakproof design for harsh sensing environments. The sensor's
10-segment bargraph display and the individual indicator LEDs provide easy configuration
and status monitoring.
Indicators
The LED indicators (see Figure 1) operate as follows in RUN mode (normal operation):
Output Conducting LED: ON when outputs are active
Delay Configuration Indicator LED: OFF No OFF-delay is programmed
ON 20- or 40-ms OFF-delay is programmed
Light Operate LED: ON to indicate Light Operate configuration
Dark Operate LED: ON to indicate Dark Operate configuration
(NOTE: Since either one of these is always ON when the sensor is operating, the
combined Light/Dark Operate LEDs also provide a functional Power-ON indication.)
10-Segment Bargraph Display: indicates signal strength, with respect to the sensing
threshold (“switchpoint”).
