Product Description

The SPECTRO-1-30-FCL-IR is a single-channel contrast sensor optimized for turbidity and self-luminous object detection, operating with 9 infrared LEDs at 860 nm and a typical measuring range of 10–100 mm. It features flexible output options including two digital outputs (NPN/PNP switchable), one analog output (0–10 V or 4–20 mA), and RS232 communication with optional USB or Ethernet converters. The device allows high-speed measurements up to 60 kHz switching frequency and includes programmable averaging, brightness correction, and threshold settings for stable performance under varying conditions. A rugged aluminum housing (IP67 for optics, IP64 for electronics) protects the unit, which operates in temperatures from -4°F to 131°F (-20°C to 55°C). Parameterization is handled via Windows® software with oscilloscope and data logging functions, and firmware updates can be executed through the RS232 interface.
