Keyence LR – W500C Self – Contained Full – Spectrum Sensor (LRW500C)
Product Overview
Main Functions
- Full – Spectrum Color and Surface Inspection
It can detect subtle color differences, surface finish variations, and texture changes that are difficult to identify with the naked eye, suitable for applications such as color sorting of electronic components, quality inspection of printed packaging, and detection of surface defects on automotive parts, ensuring consistent product quality.
- Adjustable Beam Spot for Diverse Detection Needs
The adjustable beam spot (ø3.5 mm at 100 mm to ø18 mm at 500 mm) enables precise detection of small parts and reliable identification of large – area objects, meeting the requirements of different production scenarios from small – scale assembly to large – batch packaging.
- Flexible Output and Timer Configuration
It offers selectable NPN/PNP open – collector outputs (NO/NC switchable) and multiple response time settings (200 µs–500 ms), along with timer functions (OFF/ON delay/OFF delay/one – shot). This allows synchronization with production line speeds and precise control of output signals, optimizing the automation processKEYENCE FRANCE SAS.
- Anti – Interference and Stable Performance
The mutual interference reduction function supports up to 2 units to operate simultaneously with alternate frequencies, avoiding signal crosstalk. The IP65/IP67 protection rating and a wide operating temperature range (- 20 to + 50 °C) ensure stable operation in dusty, wet, or temperature – varying industrial settings.
- Easy Integration and Operation
The M12 4 – pin connector simplifies connection to industrial control systems, and the intuitive setting buttons enable quick parameter configuration. It can be easily integrated with PLCs and other automation equipment, reducing setup time and improving work efficiency.
