color sensors OF659195

The functioning of the color sensors is based on the evaluation of the red, green and blue components of the light reflected by the objects to be measured, or from the emitted radiation of the 'self-luminous' object (for example, LEDs, automobile tail lights, halogen lamps, fluorescent lamps, etc.). For this purpose, a so-called 3-fold receiver is integrated in the unit next to an on / off switchable white light or UV-light. This receiver works according to the True Color principle. This means that the evaluation of the light hitting the receiver is similar to the color perception of the human eye. This is a prerequisite for the reliable differentiation of objects or luminous objects by their color and brightness. For testing fluorescent materials the use of sensors with UV-light source is recommended. The use under adverse environmental conditions is possible through the use of additional fiber optics. The interaction between a precise detection and a high switching frequency distinguishes the devices. Thus,they are an ideal tool for process and quality control.
