    Features

    Ultra-compact sensor head

    The ultra-compact size and yet the high level of performance. These sensors save space.

    HL-T1001A(F) HL-T1005A(F) HL-T1010A(F)

    Resolution of 4 μm 0.157 mil

    A high resolution of 4 μm 0.157 mil (at an average 64 cycles) allows high-precision positioning and size judgment.

    Resolution of 4 μm 0.157 mil

    Long sensing range

    Long sensing range of 500 mm 19.685 in [HL-T1005A(F), HL-T1010A(F)] and 2 m 6.562 ft [HL-T1001A(F)] are available.

    High-precision judgment even from minute differences in light intensity

    The sensors are sensitive to minute differences in light intensity, so that they can judge even the opacity of glass.
    In addition, the amount of light received can be displayed as a percentage to allow you to determine permeation rates.

    High-precision judgment even from minute differences in light intensity

    Minimum sensing object diameter ø8 μm ø0.315 mil [HL-T1001A(F)]

    The laser with a beam diameter of ø1 mm ø0.039 in can sense extremely small objects with dimensions in micrometers such as bonding wires.

    Minimum sensing object diameter ø8 μm <span class=

    Adoption of a Class 1 laser

    The adoption of a Class 1 laser (IEC / JIS / EN / GB) eliminates the need for safety countermeasures, so that these sensors can be used in photoelectric sensor applications with confidence.

    Fully equipped with convenient functionality

    A wide range of convenient features has been incorporated into the unit's compact body: standard laser beam reception intensity setting / auto scaling setting / measurement processing (various timer and hold functions) / differentiation / monitor focus function.
    These features make the unit useful for a wide variety of applications.

    Detection resolution can be easily confirmed

    The current resolution can be easily confirmed by setting the controller to indicate resolution display mode.
    By displaying the resolution, the marginal increment can be easily determined for the threshold value setting, helping to accurately determine whether sensing can be performed.

    Detection resolution can be easily confirmed

    3 types of teaching functions are now available

    3 types of teaching functions are available: positioning teaching / 2-point teaching / automatic teaching, thus enabling a variety of applications to be accommodated for many different types of production sites.

    3 types of teaching functions are now available

    Analog output is switchable between current / voltage

    The analog output can be switched between either of two different outputs; current (4 to 20 mA) / voltage (±4 V). With the monitor focus function, the output can be adjusted over the range from -5 V to +5 V, or from 0 V to +5 V, facilitating connectivity with a variety of output devices.

    Monitor focus function

    The linear output is fully adjustable over the following range (current: 4 to 20 mA / voltage: ±4 V). The usage of the monitor focus function together with selectable current / voltage switching for the linear output allows for compatibility with a variety of output devices.

    Monitor focus function

    The linear output must be set by determining output values (maximum; current: 0 to 23.5 mA / voltage: ±5.5 V) at two different points, for the arbitrary display value.

    FDA regulations conforming types are available

    FDA regulations conforming types, most suitable for equipment used in the USA, are now available.

    - FDA : Class II
    - IEC / JIS / EN / GB : Class 1

    Superior operability has been achieved

    All settings can be easily performed by using the fourway keys and viewing the digital displays.

    Superior operability has been achieved

    Calculations for 2 sensors are possible

    The calculation unit (optional) just needs to be connected between the two controllers to enable calculations (addition and subtraction) to be carried out for two sensors. No digital panel controller is needed either.

    Calculations for 2 sensors are possible

    Self-check for laser diode deterioration

    The intelligent controller performs self-checking for laser diode deterioration. If the controller detects significant deterioration (end of diode life), an error will be displayed on the main digital display panel. This function enables users to prepare in advance for potential laser diode malfunctions.

    Functions

    FunctionDetails
    Zero reset functionThe following tasks can be done by executing zero reset.
    Auto scaling functionThe auto scaling function selects whether to display the laser beam reception amount in the main-digital display in “mm” units or in “%” units, and determines whether the amount of laser beam received or the amount of laser beam interrupted is displayed. With the set standard laser beam reception amount as the reference value, the current laser beam reception amount (laser beam interrupted amount) is scaled automatically and is displayed as well as being output.
    Standard received light settingThis function registers and stores the current laser beam reception amount in memory as the standard laser beam reception amount. The laser beam reception amount during full laser beam entry becomes the 100 % laser beam reception amount’s full scale (F.S.). If this function is used, the display and the linear output are set on the full scale (F.S.) automatically. It can also be used to correct the laser beam reception amount when there is a change in the laser beam reception amount due to dirt, etc. on the front glass.
    Scaling functionThe scaling function is a function that changes the display value to the desired amount with respect to the setting value. At the desired distance, the display value can be input and changed.
    Hysteresis width setting functionThis function sets the hysteresis to the desired value.
    Monitor focus functionWith this function, the linear output range and inclination, etc. with respect to the display value can be specified. Setting is done by determining the 2 output values with respect to the desired display values.
    Differential functionThis function makes the amount of change in the measured value an output value. Use this function when measuring if you are paying attention to changes in measured values, as when counting the number of workpieces, etc.
    Display reverse functionThe digital display’s direction can be selected. The forward direction or the reverse direction to match the direction of installation on the equipment can be selected.
    ECO display functionThis function makes the display dark and saves electric power.
    Display digits limitation functionThis determines the number of display digits in the main-digital and sub-digital displays. If the number of digits is limited, the digits are turned off beginning with the lowest order digit.
    Zero reset memory functionThis selects whether or not to save the zero reset level in memory when the power is turned OFF. If you desire to reproduce the zero reset level from the previous operating session when you turn the power ON again, then enable this function. If this function is enabled, the zero reset level data are written into the EEPROM each time.
    Key lock functionThe controller’s key input can be disabled. Once the key input is disabled, the controller will not accept any key inputs until the key lock is released. Use this function to avoid changing the setting by mistake.

    ・The display value can be set at “0”.

    ・The linear output when the display reads “0” is made the center output value of the 2 points set by monitor focus. (In the default state, the current output is 12 mA and the voltage output is 0 V.)

    Connection

    • This product is made to satisfy the specifications when the sensor head is combined with the controller. In any other combination, not only may it not satisfy the specifications, but could be the cause of breakdown. So by all means, use it so that there is a combination of the sensor head and the controller.

    Others

    • This product outputs the judgment of the laser light analog quantity. Since there is variation in the light intensity between the center and the edges of the detection area, and the emitter side and the receiver side, the “display value” does not equal “the actual dimensions”, so caution is necessary.
      Use the displayed dimensional value as a criterion.
    • If the object being measured has a mirror surface or is a transparent body, it may be impossible to measure it accurately, so please exercise caution.
    • Absolutely do not attempt to disassemble this product.
    • Do not use this product during the transient state when the power supply is turned ON.
