Datasensing CX0 Series

Datasensing CX0 Series

The Datasensing CX0 Series consists of slim area sensors designed for detection applications, featuring total crossed beams for reliable object detection across heights of 160mm or 320mm. With an intrinsic optical synchronism via a single interconnected cable, these sensors are ideal for applications requiring high-density, precise coverage. Available with beam pitches of 5mm or 10mm and sensing distances up to 6m, the CX0 series offers fast response times and is adjustable via Teach-in functionality. They are perfect for material handling, conveying, and sorting applications where objects need to be detected over a defined area.

Datasensing CX0 Series

The Datasensing CX0 Slim Area Sensors are designed for robust, reliable area monitoring in industrial automation. Unlike traditional photoelectric sensors that detect objects at a single point, area sensors monitor an entire planeβ€”ensuring consistent detection of any object entering the sensing field, regardless of its position or shape.

Design & Functionality

The CX0 series features a slim, space-saving profile and a full cross optical beam configuration, providing maximum detection reliability across the entire monitored area.

Total Crossed Beams

  • Ensures that any object breaking the detection plane is reliably detected
  • Available in two crossed-beam heights:
    • 160 mm
    • 320 mm

Beam Pitch Options

Two beam pitch configurations are available to suit different application needs:

  • 5 mm Pitch
    • Detects very small objects, down to Ø 1.5 mm
    • Sensing distance up to 3 m
  • 10 mm Pitch
    • Ideal for standard object detection
    • Detects objects down to Ø 5 mm
    • Extended sensing distance up to 6 m

Intrinsic Synchronism

The emitter and receiver are automatically synchronized through a single connection cable, simplifying wiring and reducing installation time.

Operational Advantages

  • High Switching Frequency
    • Detects fast-moving objects
    • Up to 135 Hz or 75 Hz depending on model
    • Suitable for high-speed conveyors and sorting systems
  • Easy Configuration (Teach-In)
    • Built-in Teach-in function enables quick setup and adjustment
    • Allows fine-tuning based on application requirements

Applications

The CX0 series is ideal for industries requiring reliable, wide-area object detection, including:

  • Intralogistics (Conveyor & Sorting Systems)
  • Packaging Lines
  • General Manufacturing & Automation

These sensors ensure stable detection performance even in demanding environments where accuracy and reliability are critical.
