Accuracy, measurement field, and spot size.

The accuracy is determined by:

It detects the precise positioning of an object. The MX1A/B series is used to add or subtract measured values; it calculates differences in thickness or compares the level of objects.

By using time of flight measurement technology, this reduces the effect of the color of the object.

This system, different from the previous triangulation technology, offers the possibility of having an equal accuracy over the entire measurement field, which can be very long. This system detects light thanks to a electromagnetic pulsing signal instead of a direct reflection of light. ; The light beam characteristics becomes secondary and using this method the time necessary for the emitted light to hit the target and come back is measured directly. (Applicable products: S80)

10000 Lux, according to European Standards, which is typical for the outdoors on a very sunny day. In these conditions, protection for the sensor is necessary. A shadow has to be created in order to avoid the light hitting directly onto the lens.

The SA1J uses 3 LED source (RGB) and the SA1K uses Halogen source for detection. The advantage of the SA1J is the accuracy detection of color difference, with longer life on the LEDs. The advantage of the SA1K is to differentiate fine shades of the same color.

It depends on your application. Some fiber optics have multiple beams for more accurate readings. The SA1C is perfect for areas with minimal clearance.
