The detection principle is based on an Active Pixel
Sensor (APS) CMOS array consisting of 64 x 1 sensors, where each pixel represents a
specific position of the detected object. This offers an accurate sensing distance
regardless of object color, allowing the sensor to be used on a variety of applications.
These sensors have also been designed to avoid any false detection caused by lighting or
electromagnetic interference, thus reducing system maintenance and increasing the
application up-time. Furthermore, thanks to the efficient spherical lens design, this
range has a longer sensing distance compared to the other background suppression sensors
available on the market today.
The PA18 and PH18 sensors can withstand water
pressure up to 100 bar, cleaning agents, and disinfectants. They comply with all of the
requirements for the ECOLAB and IP68/69K wash-down approvals. The sensors are well suited
for applications in packaging, material handling, and food & beverage.
