Pepperl+Fuchs' DK12-11-IO Series Contrast Sensors detect differences in two colors of media

Pepperl+Fuchs' DK12-11-IO Series Contrast Sensors are designed to detect differences in two colors of media, with a three-color light source. The sensors are IO-Link compatible, enabling them to provide configuration options, visibility of the sensor’s color evaluation and a deeper level of control. Additionally, these sensors include Pepperl+Fuchs’ 4-in-1 output that delivers four output options from a single sensor. 

DK12-11-IO with IO-Link offers more setup options, including customizable diagnostic LEDs, the ability to invert the output state and disable the adjustment potentiometer for tamperproof requirements, and logging the output. 

DK12-11-IO contrast sensors with RGB (red/green/blue) LEDs are well-equipped to detect contrasts of yellow colors. These UL and cUL listed contrast sensors have a metal-framed housing with a connector that swivels for mounting in space-restrictive applications. They offer static and dynamic teach modes, in addition to manual and remote teach methods, in a single housing. They have no color jitter, as the light spots from the three color LEDs are lined in a row for positional accuracy.
