The Leuze GS 63B/6D.3-S8 optical fork sensor is part of the GS 63 series and has a part number of 50128008. It utilizes a fork-type label identification system and is designed to detect non-transparent labels with a width and gap of 2 mm. The sensor operates based on the principle of optical physics and requires a power supply voltage ranging from 10 to 30 V DC. The sensor is equipped with a 4-pin connector for connection to the power supply and other devices.
The sensor features a compact design, with dimensions of 11 mm x 30 mm x 80 mm, and a weight of 55 g. It has a mouth width of 3 mm and a mouth depth of 61 mm. The sensor housing is made of a combination of metal and plastic, with a die-cast zinc, chemically nickel-plated metal housing and a PC plastic housing. The lens cover material is plastic/PC. The housing is designed for through-hole mounting, and an optional mounting device is available.
The optical fork sensor has a digital switching output and a transistor push-pull switching element. It operates by switching the signal on the label, with a response time of 0.05 ms and a readiness delay of 300 ms. The sensor has a maximum switching current of 100 mA and a switching voltage of high: ≥(UB-2V) and low: ≤ 2 V. It also has one teach input for setting the sensor’s parameters during installation.
The GS 63B/6D-S8 sensor has two LED displays and a multiturn potentiometer for operational controls. It has an operating temperature range of -20 to 60 °C and a storage temperature range of -30 to 70 °C. The sensor has a degree of protection of IP 67 and is cUL US certified.
