The IV-150MA from Keyence is a short range monochrome vision sensor for close-up inspection work. Specifically, this model covers 50 to 150 mm with a compact field of view. Furthermore, its auto focus simplifies setup and shortens commissioning time. The IV-150MA merges camera, lighting, and processing into one IP67-rated housing.
The IV-150MA covers an installed distance of 50 to 150 mm. At 50 mm, the view measures 12 × 9 mm, expanding to 36 × 27 mm at 150 mm. Meanwhile, the 1/3 inch monochrome CMOS sensor delivers 752 × 480 pixel resolution. Illumination uses a red LED with pulse or DC lighting modes available.
For tools, this sensor provides 16 detection tools and 1 position adjustment tool. Shape Detection, Area, Edge Pixels, and Pitch are among the available algorithms. Besides, 32 program settings enable rapid product changeover without reprogramming delays. The IV-150MA also supports FTP client, EtherNet/IP, and PROFINET for network integration.
Power runs on 24 VDC with a 0.6 A maximum current draw. The IV-150MA includes 6 inputs and 4 outputs. Outputs are open collector type with NPN or PNP selection. Therefore, wiring adapts to existing control cabinets. The M12 4-pin connector handles both 100BASE-TX and 10BASE-T Ethernet communication.
The main case uses aluminium die-casting for durability. Sealing material is NBR, while the front cover uses acrylic. This construction supports IP67 protection, excluding specific filter attachments. Operating temperature spans 0 to +50°C without freezing. Moreover, humidity tolerance reaches 35 to 85% RH with no condensation allowed. Vibration resistance follows 10 to 55 Hz at 1.5 mm double amplitude. Shock resistance is rated at 500 m/s² across six directions. Weight is approximately 270 g for the sensor body.
Mounting and Distance: First, mount the IV-150MA using the POM adapter at the target inspection point. Keep the lens surface 50 to 150 mm from the object. The autofocus function sets the optimal focal position automatically during setup.
Wiring: Next, connect the M12 4-pin connector for Ethernet communication. Then, wire the 24 VDC power supply and input/output lines per the manual diagrams. The IV-150MA accepts either non-voltage or voltage inputs.
Programming: Finally, configure detection tools and programs through the monitor or PC software. The 32-program memory allows storing different inspection recipes.

Q1: What is the difference between the IV-150MA and the IV-500MA?
A: The IV-150MA covers a shorter 50-150 mm range with a tighter view. The IV-500MA handles 50-500 mm with a wider field.
Q2: Can the IV-150MA connect to a PLC directly?
A: Yes, it supports EtherNet/IP and PROFINET protocols for direct PLC communication.
Q3: What type of illumination does this sensor use?
A: The IV-150MA uses a red LED with selectable pulse or DC lighting modes.
Q4: Is the IV-150MA suitable for small part inspection?
A: Yes, the 12 × 9 mm view at 50 mm supports precise small part detection.
Q5: How many inspection programs can the IV-150MA store?
A: It stores up to 32 programs for different product changeover requirements.
