Precise Distance Measurement​

The LEUZE ODSL 8/C66 - 500 - S12 is an optical distance sensor renowned for its accuracy. Employing the triangulation principle, it measures distances from 20 to 500 mm. With a red laser light source (Laser Class 2, IEC/EN 60825 - 1:2007), it projects a light spot sized 2 mm x 6 mm at the sensor distance. The resolution ranges from 0.1 to 0.5 mm. It offers high accuracy, with 2% accuracy in the short range and 4% in the distant range. This makes it perfect for applications where exact distance determination is crucial, such as in automated manufacturing for part positioning or in logistics for package sizing.​

Robust Electrical Configuration​

Electronically, this sensor is designed for reliability. It operates on a supply voltage of 18 - 30 V DC, with a stable residual ripple of 0 - 15% from UB. It has one analog output of the current type and two digital switching outputs, both with push - pull transistors. The switching frequency is not specified, but with a measurement time of 2 - 7 ms, it can quickly respond to changes in distance. Equipped with short - circuit protection, it ensures stable operation even in the face of electrical glitches. The static 2 - point teach input simplifies calibration, allowing for easy adaptation to different measurement scenarios.​

Durable and Adaptable Design​

Constructed with a die - cast zinc metal housing and a glass lens cover, the ODSL 8/C66 - 500 - S12 is built to last. Measuring 15 mm x 48 mm x 38 mm and weighing 70 g, it has a compact and portable design. The sensor has an IP 67 and IP 69K protection rating, safeguarding it against dust, water, and high - pressure washdowns. It has c UL us approval, adhering to international safety standards. The M12 turning connector, with a 90° rotation angle, simplifies installation, making it suitable for various industrial setups, from factory floors to outdoor industrial applications.​
