Wenglor PNBC006 Laser Distance Sensor High Precision 400mm

The Wenglor PNBC006 Laser Distance Sensor High Precision is an elite industrial measurement solution designed for high-speed, high-accuracy distance monitoring. Utilizing a state-of-the-art CMOS line array, this sensor delivers a working range of 200 to 400 mm with an incredible resolution of 3.1 µm.

Description

Precision Through CMOS Technology

The PNBC006 belongs to the advanced PNBC range, which utilizes a high-resolution CMOS line array to determine distance through precise angular measurement. This technology ensures that the Wenglor PNBC006 Laser Distance Sensor High Precision can obtain stable measured values even on complex surfaces, such as sheet metal with speckle effects. Its internal 16-bit resolution and proven algorithms allow for sub-micron precision that procurement and engineering teams can rely on.

Designed for Thermal Stability and Speed

Unlike traditional sensors that require long calibration periods, the PNBC006 requires only a short warm-up phase thanks to its minimized temperature drift (0.005 %/K). This thermal stability ensures that your data remains accurate across fluctuating industrial temperatures. Data is read out simultaneously via a 4…20 mA analog output and a high-speed Industrial Ethernet interface, supporting output rates of up to 30,000 measurements per second.
