New Unique Photoelectric Sensor for Web Break Monitoring
MLV41-8-HV-60-IR increases productivity in print, paper and packaging industries
New Photoelectric Sensor Offers Excellent Properties for Safe Web Break Monitoring
The new unique photoelectric sensor MLV41-8-HV-60-IR from Pepperl+Fuchs is designed as a web break monitor for various types of webstock in the print, paper and packaging industry.
The photoelectric sensor, equipped with an active foreground and background suppression, can be mounted above or below the web. If the web leaves the defined sensing range, or if the web breaks, the fault is detected by the photoelectric sensor. Even if the web lays on the sensor's optical face, such as after a web break, this fault is detected.
Excellent sensing properties
- Reliable detection of the most glossy white or dull black materials, even at severe angles
- Black / white difference of less than 1 % of sensing distance
Benefits at a glance
- No unnecessary downtime - New, integral detection of contaminants detects dust, lint, or paint that may accumulate on the sensor's lens
- Optimize performance- Self-test feature for diagnostic capability
- Easy maintenance - Sensor is resistant to many harsh solvents common to the printing industry
