Keyence IG Series User Manual

Although dirt reduces the total amount of light
received, the measurement position is the same.
The shadow of a target is shown.
Easy to maintain thanks to excellent environment resistance
Key Point: Less Sensitive to Dirt
Because it uses an L-CCD, the IG Series is less sensitive
to materials such as dirt than a sensor that uses a
photodiode (PD) as the light-receiving element.
IP67 Protection
The enclosure satisfies the IP67 rating based on the IEC
standards and remains watertight even after being held
at a depth of one meter for 30 minutes. The enclosure is
resistant to adverse environments and offers long-term
durability.

Flexible Free-Cut Cable
The sensor head cable is a robot cable
that withstands repeated bending. The
cable can be used safely in a position
requiring repeated motion.
Edge Check Function
The user can check whether a measurement
is performed correctly by verifying the
number of edges in the field of view.
Example
- Prevent dust or oil from adhering to the measurement unit,
which can cause an abnormal measurement value.
- Detect the intrusion of a different type of target.
- Check that a measurement target falls within the measurement range.
