A Small Laser Displacement Sensor HL-G1 Series

Product features details

Excellent cost-effectiveness
CMOS laser displacement sensor standard

The manufacturer has obtained CE, Korean KC, and FDA.
CE: EMC directive

High-precision measurement and data analysis using a PC can be realized with this 1 unit

Quick
Settings such as sampling cycle and output can be easily set on the spot while looking at the digital display. Contributes to the rapid launch of the equipment.

Compact
Compact size is realized by integrating the built-in controller and digital display unit. The manufacturer has brought together the manufacturer's miniaturization technologies. Easy to install in a small gap or robot arm.

Friendly
An interface is available to further improve usability. It realizes higher-grade operation and analysis using a PC/display.

Basic Performance

High resolution 0.5 μm
The high-precision measurement with a resolution of 0.5 μm and the ease of use of the LED digital display make it useful in various applications at production sites around the world.

Easy setting while looking at the digital display
Since the sensor body is equipped with a digital display, you can easily make settings while checking the amount of displacement.

Condensed various functions in a compact body
It has a built-in controller and digital display, and has a compact shape.

Protective structure, IP67
Since it has a protective structure of IP67, it can be used even in environments with a lot of water and dust. Also, since a metal sleeve is inserted in the mounting hole, it can be tightened firmly up to 0.8 N·m.

Easy to install in equipment and lines
The functions of the controller are integrated into the sensor body. Eliminates the need for controller installation and installation space.

Lightweight body that can also be used for movable part
The lightweight resin body, which weighs approx. 70 g, can also be installed on a slider or robot arm. In addition, a cable with excellent flex resistance is used as standard.

Function

Timing input and multi-input
In addition to the timing input, the following inputs can be selected according to the application.
・ Zero set on/off
・ Reset
・ Memory switching
・ Laser control
・ Teaching
・ Storage

3 outputs and 2 analog outputs
Since it is equipped with 3 outputs, it can be used as a HI/GO/LOW judgment output or alarm output. Furthermore, the analog output is equipped with a voltage output and a current output.

NPN/PNP bipolar compatible [Global support]
Since 1 part number supports both NPN/PNP polarities by wiring, the number of registered part numbers for maintenance can be reduced.

Memory switching function
You can save up to 4 sensor settings. Since the settings can be easily switched, the setup of the device can be changed smoothly.

High-performance type (HL-G1□-S-J/HL-G1□-RS-J)

Equipped with a communication interface enables data communication with higher-level devices such as PLC
A 1: 1 connection using RS-422 or up to 16 HL-G1 series units using RS-485 can be connected, and measured values can be returned from the HL-G1 series in response to the request message from the PLC. When using the manufacturer's PLC*, it is possible to easily operate the settings of the HL-G1 series and acquire the measurement output by using the PLC data write/read commands (F145, F146).
* Compatible PLC: FP0R, FPΣ, FP-X

Sensor Setting / Evaluation Tool Software HL-G1SMI
Up to 16 sensors can be set at once. You can easily collect the data required for analysis, such as monitoring the received amount waveform and data buffering. You can select each language during installation.

・ Data buffering
Accumulates and displays measurement data. Since it can be displayed on top of the data measured in the past, it can be compared and analyzed.
・ Received waveform display
The amount of light received is displayed for each cell of the light receiving element.
・ Measured value display
The measured value and the output status of each terminal are displayed.

(*1): The tool software supports the following languages. You can select it during installation.
・ Japanese/English/Korean/Chinese
(*2):

Screen data for measurement value display and sensor setting
By combining with the programmable display GT02/GT12 series, you can easily check the status of the sensor and set it from a distance. You can select Japanese, English, Chinese, or Korean.

Multilingual [Global support]
Tool software and screen data are available not only in Japanese and English, but also in Chinese and Korean, supporting equipment and facilities that are active around the world.

Product Specifications

(*1): The measurement condition without specification is the power supply voltage: 24 V DC, ambient temperature: 20°C, sampling cycle: 500 μs, average number of times: 1,024 times, measurement center distance, target object: White ceramic (specular reflection type is aluminum vapor deposition surface reflector), analog output.
(*2): It complies with FDA Regulations (21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11) in accordance with the provisions of Laser Notice No. 50 (2007.6.24) of the FDA Regulations.
(*3): The size at the measurement center distance. It is defined as 1/e^2 (approx. 13.5%) of the central light intensity.
          If there is light leakage outside the definition range and the reflectance around the detection point is higher than that of the detection point, it may be affected.
(*4): The measured value fluctuation due to the ambient illuminance is ±0.1% FS or less.
