Keyence IV3-LG5M AI Illumination Unit Infrared LED

Keyence IV3-LG5M AI Illumination Unit for IV3 Sensor

Product Introduction

The IV3-LG5M belongs to the Keyence IV3 Series and works as an AI imaging illumination unit. Specifically, it uses an infrared LED light source to support the IV3-G500MA compact sensor head. This side light design helps capture clear images in automated inspection tasks. Meanwhile, the unit receives power directly from the connected sensor, which simplifies wiring. Additionally, its IP67 rating protects the device in harsh factory environments.

Technical Specifications

First, the IV3-LG5M operates on power supplied by the connected sensor. Therefore, no separate power cable is required. The infrared LED illumination provides consistent light for AI-based imaging. Besides, the unit carries no built-in communication ports or protocols. However, it works as a dedicated accessory for the IV3-G500MA sensor. The side light structure improves contrast on reflective or uneven surfaces. Furthermore, the infrared LED type suits inspections that require invisible light. The unit also supports a polarizing filter option (OP-88644/OP-88645/OP-88646/OP-88647), though IP67 protection does not apply when that filter is mounted.

Mechanical and Environmental Parameters

Next, the operating temperature range is 0 to +50°C with no freezing. The relative humidity range is 35 to 85% RH without condensation. Moreover, the protection rating reaches IP67 when mounted to a compatible sensor. The unit case uses aluminum die-casting and PBT material. The sensor head connector combines zinc with Ni plating and PA. In addition, the front cover is acrylic, while the cable uses PVC, Ni plating, and TPEE. The IV3-LG5M weighs approximately 150 g.

Installation Guide

Finally, install the IV3-LG5M directly onto the IV3-G500MA sensor head. First, align the connector and lock it firmly into place. Next, confirm the side light faces the target inspection area. Then, tighten all mounting screws to secure the unit. Besides, avoid mounting the polarizing filter if IP67 protection is required. Meanwhile, keep the front cover clean to maintain image quality. After installation, power on the sensor and verify illumination output. If the light fails to activate, check the connector seating and sensor settings. For best results, mount the unit in a stable position free from strong vibration.
