Miniature Sensor With Advanced Optics

VS3 Series

VS3RN5XLV Miniature Sensor With Advanced Optics
  • Featuring EZ-BEAM technology, with specially designed optics and electronics for reliable sensing without adjustments
  • Offers extremely compact self-contained miniature design
  • Available in retroreflective sensing mode
  • Uses coaxial optics on retroreflective models to eliminate blind areas at close range
  • Accurately detects shiny objects
  • Offers 10 to 30V dc supply voltage with NPN or PNP output, depending on model
  • Available in dark- or light-operate models
  • Features visible sensing beam for easy alignment

Recommended Latest Technology: Q2X Series

VE Series Smart Camera

Miniature Sensor

  •  Install in small or constrained spaces, due to the sensor's compact housing design
  •  Precisely detect small objects using short-range models
  • Sense across a larger area or mount the sensor up to 3.3 m away from the target using long-range models  
  • Solve challenging problems in many applications by consolidating to one sensor family with an array of sensing modes available
