Wenglor YP05PA3 Laser Distance Sensor High Precision

Description

The Wenglor YP05PA3 Laser Distance Sensor High Precision operates on the high-resolution principle of laser triangulation. By projecting a fine red laser beam onto an object and capturing the reflected light on a high-precision CMOS line, the sensor calculates distances with a remarkable linearity deviation of only 0.1%. With a specialized working range of 50 to 110 mm, it ensures that your automation processes maintain the highest levels of consistency and data integrity.

This sensor is specifically built to keep pace with the speed of modern manufacturing. It features a switching frequency of 1,000 Hz and a response time of less than 0.5 ms, enabling real-time monitoring of fast-moving components. The visible Class 1 laser beam simplifies the alignment process during installation, while the integrated high-accuracy potentiometer allows for rapid sensitivity adjustments. With two PNP switching outputs, the unit offers flexible communication with various industrial control systems.
