Balluff BVS-C Vision-Sensor

New product line with configurator

Balluff introduces a new product line in their series of proven BVS Vision Sensors. In addition to the BVS-E series Vision Sensors, which can be conveniently configured from a PC using the ConVis® software, the BVS-C represents a second product line with separate Configurator. It is especially suited for quick and easy retrofitting of machines and equipment.

The IP 54 rated BVS-C sensor is especially simple and quick to use with its separate Configurator and 3.5” color display.

The high resolution color display permits continuous in situ status monitoring of the sensor, with constant sensor function checking. Should any deviations occur, these can be easily corrected using the Configurator. The user selects one of seven different tools such as counting edges, checking brightness, comparing contrast, OCV, detecting patterns and monitoring positions.

The ease of handling also comes to the fore when more than one part needs to be inspected at frequently changing intervals. Security is of course also taken into account. The current settings can be protected.by a password.

The Configurator does not need a separate power supply, it is directly connected to the sensor for power and data. Installation is possible on a DIN rail or in the control panel. To install the Configurator with the proven Balluff Mounting System an aluminum housing is also available.

The BVS-C Vision Sensor is offered in two different optical versions - each of them comes with three freely programmable PNP outputs . An integrated, powerful LED light ensures optimum illumination of the field of view. Industry-proven M12 fittings are used for connecting to the power supply and peripherals.
