Stable system function and reduced downtime are only two of the advantages that the new generation Leuze SR 46 series photoelectric sensors and light scanners offer users.
Leveraging the latest technology ensures an increased function reserve by up to 80% over the predecessor models for these devices. This significantly enhances reliable performance and reduces unplanned downtime, thereby enhancing productivity.
The increase in function reserve also optimises ambient light suppression and automatic sensitivity readjustment in applications where soiling or reflections are prevalent.
The Leuze SR 46C series is ideal for use on special purpose manufacturing and processing machinery and on conveyor systems across a wide range of industries. Capable of reliable operation in temperature ranges from -40 to 60°C, these sensors offer a high degree of protection (IP67 and IP69K) facilitating use in harsh environmental conditions.
Other integral features include the well-proven Leuze teach button for simple and fast configuration, a potentiometer allowing a large adjustment range, a highly visible light spot, an improved status LED and an additional display behind the front screen.
This series of quality sensing equipment includes the Leuze L 46C through-beam photoelectric sensor, which enables maximum functional reliability even at large operating ranges of up to 150 metres, and the Leuze SLS 46C (type 2, type 4) single beam safety device which is suitable for efficient machine safeguarding. The Leuze PRK 46C photoelectric sensor is ideal for small reflectors, heavily soiled or foil-wrapped objects, while the Leuze RK 46C VarOS retro-reflective photoelectric sensor offers reliable detection thanks to the light band optics. Detection of dark and glossy objects is a simple task with the Leuze HT 46C reflection light scanner.
