TLS0004 is a retro-reflective laser photoelectric sensor marks TECHNOLINE designed for precise non-contact detection in industrial automation.

Design of this variant: polarised reflection from reflector, working distance 10m, output PNP, function NO and NC and connection cable 2 m.

Laser detection principle

The emitter and receiver are in one housing and a retroreflector is placed opposite the sensor. An object in the detection path interrupts the returning beam.

Typical applications

A retro-reflective laser sensor works with a reflector / retroreflector placed opposite the sensor. The laser beam returns from the reflector back to the sensor, and an object between the sensor and the reflector interrupts the beam. It is suitable for longer distances, conveyor lines, packaging lines and precise detection of object passage.

Typical applications include checking part presence, passage detection, positioning, edge checking, product counting and sensing objects on conveyors, packaging machines and assembly lines.

Technical specifications

Mounting and adjustment

Mount the sensor firmly and without mechanical stress. Set the laser beam to the required detection point, reflector or opposite receiver according to the principle of the specific variant. After mechanical adjustment, verify stable switching across the entire working range and also in extreme operating states.

When mounting, take into account contamination of the optics, vibration, changes in the surface of the sensed object and possible scattering of ambient light. For precision applications, we recommend verifying the operating reserve directly on the machine after installation.

How to choose the right variant

Compare the sensing principle, working distance, PNP/NPN output type, NO/NC function, supply, connector or cable, dimensions, degree of protection and properties of the detected object. When replacing an existing sensor, it is safest to work from the exact order code and electrical wiring of the original device.
