The photoelectric light grids of the AS1 series are crossed-beam DataSensor Area Sensors able to detect all objects, with even 0.2 mm thickness, inside a 100 mm height, over operating distances reaching 2.1 m between emitter and receiver. A standard resolution version is also available for less critical and cost-effective applications. The Infra DataSensor AS1 Area Sensors represent the ideal solution for the detection of very small objects, even when passing in different positions inside the controlled height and width. Thanks to the short response time, the ultra-compact DataSensor AS1 light grids suit fast conveyor lines, such as feeding and downloading lines, for the detection and counting of objects in random positions. The PNP output is activated every time an object is detected inside the sensitive area between the receiver and emitter. Two differet Infra DataSensor AS1 Series Area Sensor models are available: high resolution (AS1-HR) or standard resolution (AS1-SR).

If you are looking for DataSensor Area Sensors, please call us at (800) 894-0412 or email us at info@ctiautomation.net we will do our best to help you find the Photoelectric Light Screens that you are looking for at the lowest prices possible. If you are searching for Infra Area Sensor technical information (data-sheets) please use the DataSensor Datasheets OR Product Selection Guide page links.

In the first case the light array has 16 beams, while in the second case the beams are reduced to 6. In the AS1-HR model, the selection inputs of the SCAN MODE, can configure 4 different crossedbeam scanning modes. These different DataSensor AS1 Series Area Sensor modes allow to vary the detection performances, in particular the resolution can be increased to 0.2 mm thickness, or the response time up to less than 3 ms.

The DataSensor DS1 AREAscan series Area Sensors are compact multibeam light grids suitable for the detection and measurement of objects with different shapes and dimensions. Different DataSensor AreaScan DS1 Series Sensor models are available with 100, 150 and 300 mm controlled height, 5 mm resolution and operating distance reaching 2.1 m. The electronics is fully integrated and so no external drivers are required. The measurement value is supplied through the analogue 0 to 10 V output which is proportional to the number of interrupted beams. The PNP digital output is activated every time a beam between emitter and receiver is interrupted. The low response time, ranging from 1 to less than 3 ms, depending on the height and measurement resolution, allows installation also on fastest machines and processes. The measurement of the object's position or dimensions, placed inside the sensitive area, is obtained thanks to the 0 to 10 V analogue output, which supplies a signal proportional to the number of interrupted beams.

The PNP digital output is activated each time that a beam is intercepted by an object; in this case, the yellow OUT LED on the receiving unit panel turns on. The green POWER ON LED, always on this panel, signals also the wrong alignment between the emitting and receiving DataSensor AreaScan DS1 Series Sensor units as well as the functioning outside or near the maximum operating distance.

The AREAscan family of the DS2 series DataSensor Area Sensors cover controlled heights ranging from 15 to 250 cm, with 5 m operating distances for 6 mm resolution versions, or 10 m for 25 mm resolution versions. The measurement configuration can be set manually thanks to internal dip-switches, or using graphic interface from remote PC on the serial port. Once loaded the program on the flash memory, the device functions in the stand-alone mode. The serial interface transmits the measurement in a binary or ASCII code, the operating status control as well as the setting of the different baud-rate versions. The DataSensor DS2 light arrays suits different height or dimensional measurement applications in general, in automatic material handling. The different configuration parameters of the DataSensor AreaScan light grid can be visualised and modified using the extremely easy and intuitive user interface. In particular, the interface consents the access to many different advanced operating modes.

The DataSensor AREAscan light grids of the DS3 series Area Sensors are optoelectronic multibeam devices that can be used to detect, measure and control the position of objects, also transparent and small. Models with 150, 300, 450 or 600 mm detection field height are available, as well as presenting 0.2 to 0.6 m or 0.6 to 1.5 m operating distances. Internal dip-switches for configuration are available on all models, together with the Teach-in setting button with Remote and self-calibration function, LED indicators for the signalling of the device operating and auto-diagnostic status. The synchronisation via cable of the emitter and receiver units guarantees high optic and electromagnetic interference immunity. The integrated electronics eliminates the need for an external control unit for DS3 Series DataSensor Area Sensors.

The compact dimensions (35 x 40 mm), easy installation and excellent performances make the AREAscan light grids particularly suitable to the many different applications of automatic packaging and industrial automation in general. The following operating modes can be selected via internal dipswitches on the DataSensor AreaScan DS3 Series receiver unit and the SET and calibration button: Scanning with parallel or crossed beams, Manual calibration or at powering on, Absolute 1 or relative 2 measurement, Absolute 3 or relative 4 detection, Precise detection or with a tolerance channel, Light or dark output, and Sensitivity level.
