The Series Controllers with discrete and analog outputs represent advanced measurement technology engineered for industrial automation applications. Operating on 16-30V DC supply voltage, these controllers offer either NPN or PNP output configurations along with dual 0-10V DC or 4-20mA analog outputs depending on the specific model. They excel at determining target object location, overall size, height, and width using up to two of nine programmable measurement modes. The system includes four configurable scanning methods and supports both continuous and gated scanning operations, with separate gate input for scan initiation control. Advanced features include programmable blanking to ignore activity in specific fields along the array length, plus serial communication capabilities using ASCII or binary protocols through RS-232 or RS-485 interfaces for seamless integration with host computers or PLC systems.

These controllers find extensive application across multiple industries where precision measurement and reliable automation are critical. In manufacturing environments, they ensure accurate product dimension verification and quality control processes. The packaging industry utilizes them for box sizing, counting, and sorting operations, while material handling systems depend on them for object detection and positioning tasks. Automotive assembly lines benefit from component verification capabilities, and logistics operations use them for parcel dimensioning and inventory management. Their robust design and flexible configuration make them suitable for various industrial environments where consistent performance and accurate data are essential for operational efficiency and process optimization.

The business value of these controllers lies in their reliability, precision engineering, and ability to enhance operational accuracy. They reduce measurement errors, improve process efficiency, and minimize downtime through their robust construction and consistent performance. The advanced configuration software simplifies setup and optimization, reducing implementation time and associated costs. Their compatibility with existing PLC and computer systems ensures straightforward integration without requiring extensive infrastructure changes. The controllers' programmable features allow adaptation to specific operational needs, providing long-term value through flexibility and scalability while maintaining high reliability standards in demanding industrial environments where performance consistency is paramount.
