RLG28 Retro-Reflective Area Sensors

Pepperl+Fuchs introduces the RLG28 Retro-Reflective Area Sensors. These sensors feature six light beams that generate a constant 60 mm detection field to consistently detect objects as small as 12mm in diameter over the entire sensing range. They are suitable for use in material handling and other applications where single beam retro-reflective sensors have reached their functional limitations or in applications that would otherwise require costly light grids.

With some retro-reflective sensors, shiny objects such as foils, Mylar, and certain plastics can be erroneously "seen" as the sensor's reflector. RLG28 sensors, however, have a polarizing filter that eliminates the potential for such false readings. These retro-reflective area sensors automatically adjust excess gain based on ambient conditions, such as lens contamination or temperature changes, enabling constant operation without requiring readjustment.
