SICK CS8 COLOR SENSOR
Detect, Check & Sort Colors
When colors are the decisive criterion for detecting, checking and sorting, the CS8 color sensor is the right choice.

Thanks to the two scanning ranges of 12.5 mm with a precise light spot and 60 mm with a larger spot, numerous tasks can be handled. A difference in a single color can be detected using the CS8-1. If more color distinctions are required, the CS8-4 is available with 4 channels.

The simple teach-in and the bar display make the device especially easy to use. At the teach-in, the light spot is positioned on the color to be detected, push button - ready. If required, the color tolerance can be adjusted. Using the CS8-4, each channel is selected for a corresponding color. The high performance color sensors from SICK do not require any complex setup procedures.

The default setting is selected in such a way that it can handle the majority of applications. However, if especially high speed or high color resolution is required, you can select from three modes (speed, resolution, and combination). The sensor is then set automatically to the different conditions. The CS8 can be installed flexibly with its robust metal housing, selectable light exits and rotatable M12 plug. Thanks to its electrical and mechanical compatibility and a common teach-in procedure, you can switch from the old generation CS1 to CS8-1 and CS3 to CS8-4 without problems.
