The miniature sensor housing of the zws-15 has dimensions of 20 mm x 32 mm x 12 mm. The housing’s design and mounting is compatible with many optical sensors. This facilitates the conversion to ultrasonic sensors for critical applications. The Teach-in button on the top facilitates the convenient setting of the sensor. Two LEDs in the sensor housing’s upper half indicate the switching output and respectively the analogue output states. The temperature compensation of the analogue sensors profits from a significant improvement. The sensors reach their operating point only 45 seconds after switching...

The operating mode single switching point (Method A) is suitable for applications, in which the actual distance to the object is also the switching point. A typical application is level control, where the ultrasonic sensor detects the filling level vertically from above during the filling process. The taught switching point corresponds to the maximum filling level. The operating mode single switching point +8% (Method B) is recommended by objects, which move into the detection area from the side. In this case the switching distance is set 8 % further than the actual measured distance to the object....

High counting frequencies, short response times - no problem for the zws-7 ultrasonic sensor zws-7: 250 Hz switching frequency for fast measurement At a maximum detection range of 100 mm, the zws-7 can achieve a switching frequency of 250 Hz. This allows both detection of objects with a high counting frequency and extremely narrow gaps between two objects at fast machinery speeds. The zws-7 responds under 3 ms. Additionally fitting the new SoundPipe zws1 (Accessories) to the zws-7 markedly raises the power to detect narrow gaps between two objects at high machine speeds. Fast zws-7 - Fast zws-7/-15...

Teach-in of a switching point (Method A) Teach-in of a switching point +8% (Method B) Teach-in of a single switching point +8% (Method B)  Place the object to be detected at the desired distance (1). Push the button for about 3 seconds. Then push the button again for about 3 seconds. Teach-in of a two-way reflective barrier with a fixed reflector can be set up with the help of a permanently mounted reflector by mounting the zws sensor and the reflector, then pressing the button for approx. 3 seconds and then pressing it once more for approx. 10 seconds. Now, the two-way reflective barrier has...

To set a window with two detection points on a single switching output, the procedure is the same as setting the analogue. NCC/NOC and rising/falling analogue characteristic curve can also be set using the push-button. zws-15 with SoundPipe - 1st place for sound field focusing (e.g. for level control) Brings on intensively bundled sound field directly to the measuring point The SoundPipe zws1 (Accessories) can be used with any zws-15 or zws-7 sensor. It directs sound to the measuring point thus allowing measurements to be taken in drill holes and openings with diameters under 5 mm. Measurement...

The zws sensors are ideal for probing of circuit boards and wafers in the electronic industry or for use in packaging machines in which high-transparency films must be detected. You have special requirements? Nothing as simple as that. With us, you can easily find an individual solution. Let us talk about your application: +49 231 97 51 51-82.
