Keyence IL-1050 Analog Laser Sensor Amplifier Unit

Product Introduction

The IL-1050 from Keyence acts as a multi-function analog laser sensor amplifier unit. This device belongs to the IL series. It mounts on a standard DIN rail. Also, it works as an expansion unit. This means it adds functions to a main amplifier. However, it does not include analog output.

This amplifier pairs with all IL series sensor heads. For instance, it supports the IL-S025 and IL-030 heads. It also supports the IL-S065, IL-065, and IL-100 heads. Furthermore, it works with the IL-300 and IL-600 heads.

Technical Specifications

First, the IL-1050 uses a CMOS sensing method. Next, its display shows 6 digits. The minimum displayable unit depends on the head. Specifically, the IL-S025 and IL-030 reach 1 µm. The IL-S065, IL-065, and IL-100 reach 2 µm. The IL-300 reaches 10 µm. The IL-600 reaches 50 µm.

Additionally, the display rate is about 10 times per second. The unit has no built-in communication ports. Moreover, it carries no built-in protocols. However, users can add communication through optional IL series units. Those units are sold separately.

Electrical Parameters

The IL-1050 runs on 10 to 30 VDC. The supply includes ripple of 10 percent peak-to-peak. It also meets Class 2 requirements. Power consumption stays at 2000 mW or less. At 30 V, the current draw is 67 mA or less.

The judgment output uses an open collector. Users can switch between NPN and PNP. They can also switch between N.O. and N.C. The alarm output also uses an open collector. It allows NPN or PNP changeover. Besides, it works as N.C. This expansion unit has no analog output.

Mechanical and Environmental Parameters

The IL-1050 weighs about 140 g. This weight includes attachments. The unit mounts on a DIN rail. Its compact body saves panel space. However, dimensions are not available in the source data.

The operating temperature ranges from -10 to +50 °C. Condensation and freezing must be avoided. The relative humidity ranges from 35 to 85 percent RH. Condensation must not occur. Storage temperature and protection rating are not available.

Installation Guide

First, power down the panel before work. Next, clip the IL-1050 onto the DIN rail. Then, connect it to the main amplifier unit. After that, attach the sensor head cable. Make sure the head matches the IL series.

Moreover, wire the supply voltage to the correct terminals. Keep the voltage between 10 and 30 VDC. Then, set the output type to NPN or PNP. Also, set the output to N.O. or N.C. as needed. Finally, verify all connections before power up.
