Information About LR-W500C
The LR-W500C belongs to the Keyence LR-W series of full-spectrum photoelectric sensors engineered for stable color, contrast, and distance-based detection. This sensor head operates on 10–30 VDC and offers selectable response times from 200 µs to 500 ms, allowing tuning between high-speed detection and noise-resistant stability. It supports both NO/NC and NPN/PNP open-collector output types, making it adaptable to a wide range of machine control interfaces. With an M12 4-pin connector, mutual interference reduction for up to two units, and environmental ratings of –20 to +50 °C with IP65/IP67 protection, the LR-W500C is built for demanding industrial sensing environments.
Key Features:
- Full-Spectrum Detection: Uses a white LED light source to identify colors, materials, and surfaces with high consistency.
- 30–500 mm Sensing Range: Supports long-distance detection for flexible mounting and stable color recognition applications.
- Selectable NPN/PNP Outputs: Offers open-collector NO/NC configuration to match diverse control systems.
- Adjustable Response Times: Provides five selectable speeds from 200 µs to 500 ms for optimizing detection accuracy or speed.
- Interference Reduction: Allows alternate-frequency operation for up to two sensors in close proximity.
- Wide Power Range (10–30 VDC): Ensures compatibility with standard industrial power supplies and control circuits.
- Industrial-Grade Environmental Protection: Rated IP65/IP67 and operable from –20 to +50 °C for harsh factory conditions.
- Low Current Consumption: Draws only 65–120 mA depending on voltage, making it suitable for energy-efficient systems.
The LR-W500C delivers the reliability and precision required for accurate color verification, surface detection, and long-range sensing within automated production systems.
