Switch Automation Light FlexChain

Flexibly expandable light grid system: Up to 60 sensors can be cascaded and controlled centrally via the FlexChain host

Ready for operation immediately: The sensors are identified and taught in at the push of a button

Optimum measurement certainty thanks to sequential sensor cycling without mutual interference

Highly flexible positioning of through-beam photoelectric sensors, photoelectric retro-reflective sensors, photoelectric proximity sensors and light grids at any distance or in any position

High process stability thanks to extensive diagnostic function

High flexibility due to logic configuration in the host and the IO-Link, CANopen and RS-485 interface variants

Description

The FlexChain is a flexibly configurable light grid thanks to the sequential connection of several sensors. There is no need for long connection cables or complex wiring. By pressing a button on the FlexChain Host, the sensors can be addressed and taught-in automatically, meaning the system is immediately ready for use. Different sensor technologies can be combined and freely arranged: Through-beam photoelectric sensors, photoelectric sensors. The raw sensor data is evaluated via the FlexChain Host with integrated logic modules or forwarded directly via IO-Link, CANopen, RS-485 or I/O signals. Detailed diagnostic information ensures optimum process stability and measurement certainty during operation.
