Compact & Robust Design The small size is complimented by a durable design for use in any location Actual size Easy Integration in Any Situation Reduce Design Time on New Machines As machines become more compact and space remains at a premium, it is not always easy to design in sensors. The compact size of the LR-X Series eliminates this concern as it takes up little room and will not impact other elements of the design. Retrofitting Has Never Been Easier Finding locations to mount new sensors on an existing machine can be difficult, but this can be almost impossible with large or bulky...

Damage due to impact is never a concern with the LR-X Series. The food-grade stainless steel housing (SUS316L) provides extraordinary resistance to impact damage from parts or operators. Superior Environmental Protection The LR-X Series features impressive enclosure ratings of IP65 and IP67. This ensures that dust, debris, and liquids will not cause damage to the unit, and allows these sensors to be used in virtually any environment. * Excludes amplifier used with Separate Amplifier Type. Additional Guarding Prevents Cable Damage Even cable damage can be guarded against when using the...

Impressive Detection Capabilities Position-based sensing and advanced circuitry ensure detection of any target Green laser diode Custom-made CMOS chip Mirror structure Detect Targets Regardless of Appearance DECREASE STRENGTH INCREASE STRENGTH The LR-X Series utilizes a custom CMOS chip to detect targets based on position. This ensures the stable detection of targets regardless of color, surface finish, or shape. Along with this, the built-in dynamic range adjusts the intensity of the laser to prevent saturation from light targets and ensure detection of dark targets. Shiny Metals Rounded...

WORLD’S FIRST Green Laser CMOS Sensor When using a green laser, the returned light from an object creates a smaller and sharper spot on the CMOS chip compared to light returned from a red laser. This tighter spot leads to a higher degree of reliability and stability in the detection of any target. Detect Very Small Changes in Position The unique construction of the LR-X Series allows the unit to detect minute changes as small as 0.5 mm 0.02". This expansion in detection capabilities enables usage in applications typically requiring much larger sensors. Integrated Impact Alarm (Gyro Monitor)...

Set up and troubleshooting have never been easier or quicker I Detailed OLED Display, Set Up in Minutes Never guess at what a menu or setting is trying to say again! The LR-X Series features an intuitive OLED display, which spells things out with perfect clarity. From set points to menu settings, understanding a sensor has never been easier. D^o *6.4: The current value and set point can be understood at a glance. hnc IS Detection Model ° No manual needed to find the proper menu options. Specific actions can be selected with confidence.

Intuitive Display Options The benefits of the OLED display extend beyond just the settings. When paired with specific detection modes, these displays can provide a level of detail that is unmatched in other sensors and makes understanding the situation effortless. Bar display See all the elements pertinent to detection and understand quickly where the object being detected is located. Sensor Object Reference Current Surface Value Area detection mode No need to switch between screens, see the near and far thresholds that make up the detection area. Clearly Visible Indicators (Front & Back)...

I 2 Independent Outputs Do more with one sensor. The LR-X Series features two independent outputs, allowing for the differentiation of up to three different conditions. I 500ps Response Time Target speed and size are no longer a concern with this blazing fast response time. Small targets and fast moving targets can now be stably detected. I Fine Adjustment Bracket When detecting small targets proper alignment is key. The fine adjustment bracket will ensure just that with the ability to easily make precise XY adjustments. I Mask Function If reflected light from near or far objects is causing...

Communication Options IO-Link Communication Those using IO-Link can immediately integrate the LR-X Series into their existing setup. Both the Standard Type and Separate Amplifier (M8) Type support IO-Link communication. Industrial network • EtherNet/IP® • Modbus/TCP • PROFINET • CC-Link V2 Network Communication Unit Separate amplifier type only By pairing the LR-X Series with a KEYENCE Network Unit, it is possible to communicate sensor settings and detection status via one of several network protocol options. Up to 16 outputs can be connected. Network communication unit NU series Simplified...

Detection Principles Benefits of Green Laser + CMOS Chip Green lasers are able to produce a smaller and sharper spot reflection on the CMOS chip, compared to that of red lasers. These characteristics reduce the potential for detection errors and allow for a higher resolution chip to be used for more precise detection. Differences in Receiving Spots on CMOS Chips with High Resolution Typical red laser High resolution CMOS chips The spot from a red laser is typically larger in size and more prone to blurring which can lead to detection errors or less precise detection. Green laser High...
