Keyence IV-H500MA Vision Sensor | Mono Camera
The Keyence IV-H500MA is a standard-distance monochrome vision sensor with a 1/3-inch CMOS sensor. It offers 752 x 480 pixel resolution, red LED lighting, and IP67 protection for industrial inspection.
The IV-H150MA from Keyence is a compact yet powerful vision sensor built for demanding manufacturing environments. Specifically, this short range model delivers reliable inspection results with minimal setup effort. Furthermore, its monochrome CMOS sensor ensures high contrast detection for presence and position tasks. The IV-H150MA combines illumination, lens, and processing power into one IP67-rated housing.
The IV-H150MA covers an installed distance from 50 to 150 mm. At the near end, the view measures 12 × 9 mm, expanding to 36 × 27 mm at the far end. Meanwhile, the 1/3 inch monochrome CMOS sensor provides 752 × 480 pixel resolution. Exposure time ranges from 1/20 to 1/25,000 second, which handles most speed requirements. Illumination uses a red LED with pulse or DC lighting modes available.
For tools, this sensor offers 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-H150MA also supports FTP client, EtherNet/IP, and PROFINET for plant network integration.
Power runs on 24 VDC with a 0.6 A maximum current draw. The IV-H150MA 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-H150MA 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-H150MA 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-H150MA and the standard IV-H500MA?
A: The IV-H150MA offers a shorter 50-150 mm range with a smaller field of view. The IV-H500MA covers 50-500 mm with a wider view.
Q2: Can the IV-H150MA 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-H150MA uses a red LED with selectable pulse or DC lighting modes.
Q4: Is the IV-H150MA suitable for high-speed production lines?
A: Yes, exposure time down to 1/25,000 second and high-speed position adjustment tools support fast inspection.
Q5: How many inspection programs can the IV-H150MA store?
A: It stores up to 32 programs for different product changeover requirements.
