Color sensor ipf electronic
RS232

The color sensors enable shades of color and shades of gray which lie close to one another to be differentiated and among other things, are suitable for monitoring the shade color in connection with installed parts, for checking the color of lacquered components or for filtering out faulty parts and/or for sorting materials on the basis of color markings. The parameterization of the color sensors takes place using the RS232 in a Windows environment, wherein 31 colors can be tought-in and stored via a PC, SPS or diffuse reflection sensors. With a view to respective applications, different versions are available.
As such, devices with diffuse illumination units are suited for applications where glare effects on surfaces have to be reduced. In turn, variants with focused light sources are recommended for matt and dark surfaces. In addition, the special sensors can be fitted with a polarizing filter for inspecting high-gloss surfaces or for transmitted light applications used to differentiate color shades in panes of glass. Even special color detectors which simulate the sensitivity of the human eye are available. Apart from the special color detectors, a light source (D65) is used here which is adapted to the daylight. With this, it is possible to suppress the metamerism effect (known from the field of optics, as generating the same color impression amongst different spectra of an illuminant to the human eye). These so-called ‘true color’ systems have been specially designed, in order to securely differentiate similar shades of color. So-called ‘spotlight sensors’ can be employed in these type of applications if a small light spot is necessary for checking components.
