MINOS Features
and Benefits
|
||
 |
World's Smallest: The MINOS line of photoelectric sensors features the world's smallest adjustable background suppression versions - 8 x 16.2 x 10.8 mm. | |
 |
Color and Reflectivity Insensitive: Using the same triangulation-based background suppression operating principle as it's high repeatability predecessors, the background suppression MINOS operates independently of target and background color, even in reflective background conditions | |
 |
Self-Contained: The MINOS line is completely self-contained, with all electronics integrated into the main housing. No remote amplifiers. | |
 |
Versatile: In addition to True Background Suppression, the MINOS is available in diffuse, retroreflective and though-beam versions - all in the same subminiature housing | |
 |
Programmable: All versions feature single button "Teach-In" distance, sensitivity or sensing range programming as well as light/dark operate settings. All programming features can also be performed remotely, eliminating need for direct access to the sensor. | |
 |
Easy: The rugged, IP65 housing features easy screw mounting via the M3 through-bore and is available in both rear and bottom exit cable configurations. The MINOFIX mounting system with integrated cable pass-though further simplifies mounting. | |
 |
Interference Resistant: The standard pulsed visible red light source limits the negative effects of ambient light. Meanwhile, an algorithm designed to automatically suppress reciprocal influences permits multiple MINOS sensors to mounted in close proximity to each other. | |
 |
Fast: All MINOS sensors offer <0.5 ms response times, allowing reliable operation in even the fastest automated processes. |
