SR21-IR | Infrared LED High-Resolution Fork Sensor, PNP/NPN, M8 Connector
The slot photoelectric sensors of the SR21 series, with 2mm slot width, are characterized by a high 12 bit (4096 steps) resolution, a low 20µs response time and a switching frequency reaching 25kHz. The setting of the switching threshold is carried-out automatically by simply pressing a push-button, or dynamically during label (or other reference) movement. The SR21-IR model with infrared emission is ideal for label or hole detection on continuous surfaces, while the SR21-RG model with double red or green emission suits color print register mark detection on transparent films for automatic packaging.

Overview
Datalogic SR21-IR, 953151070
Sr Fork Sensor, Label Sensor Infra Red Pnp/Npn - M8
The slot photoelectric sensors of the SR21 series, with 2mm slot width, are characterized by a high 12 bit (4096 steps) resolution, a low 20??s response time and a switching frequency reaching 25kHz. The setting of the switching threshold is carried-out automatically by simply pressing a push-button, or dynamically during label (or other reference) movement. The SR21-IR model with infrared emission is ideal for label or hole detection on continuous surfaces, while the SR21-RG model with double red or green emission suits color print register mark detection on transparent films for automatic packaging.
