*The sensing object used for the HG-F1 series was a sheet of white non-glossy paper measuring 200 × 200 mm 7.874 in × 7.874 in and the sensing object used for the HG-C series was white ceramics.

*The beam diameter was defined as 1/e2 (approx. 13.5%) of the center light intensity.
It is the size at a measuring distance of 1,000 mm 39.370 in in the case of the HG-F1 series or at the measurement center distance in the case of the HG-C series.

Distance measuring system ensures stable sensing.

The product is equipped with a 7-segment display that indicates measured distances digitally in mm.
Quantification of detection states enables the setting of the most suitable threshold values consistently for anyone.

Digital display of measured distance

• Measured distance is displayed in mm.

Measurement of distance to the workpiece

• Not easily affected by material or color.
• Enables the confirmation of quantity of stacked objects and detects position.

Confirmation of delivery of workpiece / quantity of stacked objects at transfer robot section

Analog output

• Measured values can be output to an external device (analog voltage: 0 to +5 V, analog current: +4 to +24 mA)
• The analog scaling setting enables the acquisition of data from a desired measurement range.

Compact and robust aluminum diecast body

The HG-F1 series sensor has been downsized by about 80% of the previous long range distance sensor model (EQ-500 series) by volume ratio.
The unit body is made of aluminum diecast so it is lightweight and robust.

Selectable use of spot beam according to specific usage conditions

Emitted beam spot check mode

Work efficiency can be improved by selecting the most suitable spot beam type from the two options according to specific usage conditions. The spot beam emitted for measurement blends in with the surroundings to minimize the discomfort resulting from the laser that comes into the field of vision. During installation / adjustment, the emitted beam spot check mode allows clear recognition of the beam spot and enables the reliable confirmation of sensing position even in the case of long-distance sensing.

* The beam spot appears differently depending on the detected object’s material, surrounding conditions and distance.* When the emitted beam spot check mode is used, the distance to the detected object cannot be measured.

Visible light laser (Class 1) achieves pinpoint detection

Narrow field sensing

The spot beam is smaller than that of a conventional adjustable-range distance sensor so that pinpoint detection is possible.

* The above beam diameters are typical values. Confirm the appropriateness of the beam diameter in actual installation condition.* The beam diameter may be affected by the materials of surrounding objects and their distances.* The typical beam diameter of the EQ-501 / EQ-511 is used as the diameter of the EQ-500 series.
