Wenglor OCP801H0180 Laser Distance Sensor High Precision

The Wenglor OCP801H0180 Laser Distance Sensor High Precision is a versatile high-performance measurement solution designed for industrial automation tasks that require accurate non-contact distance detection over extended ranges. Featuring a broad working range of up to 800 mm, this sensor utilizes advanced optical technology to provide consistent results even on objects with varying surface characteristics and colors.

Description

The Wenglor OCP801H0180 Laser Distance Sensor High Precision operates on the high-resolution principle of laser triangulation. It projects a visible red laser beam onto the target, and the reflected light is analyzed by a precision CMOS line. This advanced detection method allows the sensor to achieve a resolution of 300 µm and a linearity deviation of only 0.5%, ensuring that distance measurements remain reliable throughout its significant 750 mm measuring range.

User-Centric Design and Integration

One of the primary advantages of the Wenglor OCP801H0180 Laser Distance Sensor High Precision is its ease of use. The device is equipped with an integrated OLED display that provides immediate visual feedback and a user-friendly menu for rapid configuration. It supports both analog outputs (0…10 V / 4…20 mA) and two PNP switching outputs, providing the flexibility needed to interface with various industrial control systems. With a switching frequency of 500 Hz, it effectively balances measurement speed and data stability for diverse industrial workflows.
