Color sensors

Mini, easy, smart
The new CSM color sensor in the miniature housing offers accurate color detection and is IO-Link-capable. It is perfectly suited for applications in which color features need to be reliably detected while taking up as little installation space as possible. The sensor detects and monitors objects based on object color.

Detects 24 stored colors quickly and offers precise adjustments
The CSS/CSX High Speed color sensor is characterized by its high switching frequency and its precise, infinitely variable sensitivity adjustment. Furthermore, the sensor outputs color values (L*a*b or RGB) as well as the similarity of a detected color to a taught-in color.

High-performance color sensing
The ability to teach up to four colors can lead to faster changeovers and shorter downtime. The CS8 series offers high switching speeds – as fast as 6 kHz (85 µsec) – enabling higher throughput.

Detects even very slight color nuances and masters changing distances
With its high color resolution and an innovative teach-in method, the new CSS High Resolution color sensor can even distinguish between fine color nuances. It also detects color gradients and structured materials like wood.
