DATASENSOR TLµ User Manual

CONTRAST SENSORS

•

‘Teach-in’, ‘Remote’ setting and models with ‘Auto-Set’

•

Red/green or white LED emission

•

Various interchangeable lenses and fibre-optic versions

•

Metal housing with orientable optics and connector

The TLµµseries offers the most reliable and innovative solutions for all detection
applications of register marks and other neutral or coloured references.
The microprocessor-based setting can be either ‘Teach-in’ using two push-buttons
or ‘Remote’ by cable with the possibility of rapidly memorising and recalling 4
different formats. The setting can also be dynamic and completely automatic in the
models with the ‘Auto-Set’ function.
The LED emission can be red/green with automatic selection, or white offering the
possibility of operating on all contrasts, also amongst same-coloured objects and
backgrounds, presenting different surface treatments or workings.
Models with interchangeable 9 mm or 18 mm lenses are available; 22, 28 and 50
mm lenses are supplied as accessories. Moreover many different fibre-optic
models are available. The output is NPN or PNP according to the model, but is
always selectable by means of an internal switch; an analog output proportional to
the received light is also present.
