Typical applications

The receiver DR500 is a light grid detector. In association with the EM•-C LED emitter, it is able to detect hot or cold products in a wide field, whatever the transverse position of this product.
The DR500 allows a detection at a very high speed on a very narrow line, like a scanning sensor. The product can be from ambient temperature up to 1350°C.

Main features

The detector DR500 consists of a lens, a linear diode array and a processing unit enclosed in a cast aluminium case.
The image of the viewed area is focused onto the diode array. The output of the Detector DR500 switches when a product is seen within the field of view with light emitter EM•-C in the background.
The detector DR500 has been designed for heavy industry, with a mounting stand, which is adjustable in two axes. In case the sensor must be replaced, it can be easily dismounted from the stand, without disturbing the alignment.

Accessories

• Stainless steel heat shield for receiver DR500

• Additional cooling plate for receiver DR500

• Cooling plate for emitter EM•-C (multiple plates can be mounted on emitter for higher efficiency)

• Adjustable mounting support for emitter EM•-C

​

• Junction box to connect DR•500 and EM•-C

• Power and I/O cable between junction box and DR•500 and EM•-C, with protective metallic braid
