SPECTR0-3-POF-SL True Color Sensors [Slim Line]

Product Description

The SPECTRO-3-POF-SL is a compact true color sensor designed for precise color, contrast, and grayscale detection using fiber optic inputs from the POF Series. It supports both diffuse and through-beam sensing modes, features a 3-color filter detector that mimics human color perception, and offers flexible integration through RS232, USB, or Ethernet interfaces. Its high-speed scanning (up to 85 kHz) and teach-in capability for up to 64 colors (in group mode) make it ideal for fast-paced, automated inspection environments. This sensor is widely used across automotive, pharmaceutical, plastics manufacturing, electronics assembly, textile production, and packaging industries, where reliable, high-resolution color recognition is essential for quality control and automation.
