Wenglor OCP242X0135 Laser Distance Sensor High Precision

The Wenglor OCP242X0135 Laser Distance Sensor High Precision is a state-of-the-art triangulation sensor designed for high-resolution distance measurement in complex industrial environments. With a working range of 40 to 240 mm, this sensor utilizes a high-resolution CMOS line array and Digital Signal Processing (DSP) to ensure stable, surface-independent measured values across various materials and colors.

Description

The Wenglor OCP242X0135 Laser Distance Sensor High Precision operates on the principle of angular measurement, providing exceptional accuracy through its 16-bit internal resolution. Unlike traditional sensors that require separate input cards, this device communicates directly with the control unit via PROFINET. This allows all measurement and service data to be read, analyzed, and processed in real time, significantly reducing system latency and hardware complexity.

Efficient Installation with Power over Ethernet (PoE)

Setting up the OCP242X0135 is remarkably efficient thanks to its PoE Class 1 capability. By transmitting both power and data over a single cable, the sensor reduces wiring costs and potential failure points. Users can easily manage device settings through the integrated web server or the intuitive graphic OLED display located on the zinc die-cast housing. With an IP68 protection rating, the sensor is fully equipped to handle harsh industrial conditions while maintaining sub-millimeter precision.
