Overview
The PVD Series Parts Verification Sensor is a one-component, easy-to-use light screen suited to many part assembly, bin picking (pick-tolight), and error-proofing applications. The PVD increases task efficiency due to simplified job training, increased quality control (no skipped components), and reduced rework and inspections. It speeds the resumption of work after breaks and other distractions, and is ideal for multilingual workplaces where communication is an issue.

Diffuse or Retroreflective Sensor for Error Proofing of Bin-Picking Operations

• One-component system, easy to mount and even easier to use. Automatically operates in either diffuse or retroreflective mode, depending on the application
• Automatic setup and adjustment; wide beam pattern provides easy alignment
• Range up to 2 m (6.5 ft) when used with retroreflective target; 400 mm (15.7 in) when used in diffuse mode
• Large job lights on either side of the metal housing can be remotely controlled to initiate user action with a solid or a blinking green light; job lights turn red to indicate bin-picking errors
• Compact package size; only 30 mm wide × 15 mm deep (1.2 in × 0.6 in)
• Available in 2 lengths to fit existing parts bin sizes and configurations
• Easy DIP-switch adjustments: PNP/NPN output, normally open/normally closed operation, solid/flashing job light, and gate polarity for job light activation
• Two LEDs indicate power ON and output ON
• Choose 2 m (6.5 ft) unterminated cable or 2 m (6.5 ft) cable with 5-pin Euro-style quick-disconnect connector
• Heavy-duty protective brackets available
• 12 V dc to 30 V dc operation
