Product Description:
The HG-C series consists of compact CMOS laser displacement sensors specifically designed to deliver stable and highly accurate distance and position measurements within the realm of industrial automation. These sensors combine a CMOS laser optical system with an integrated mirror, enabling a slim body profile without compromising the precision typical of dedicated displacement sensors. Additionally, they feature a 7-segment digital display that presents measured distances directly in millimetres, making it easy for operators to verify readings and set threshold values without needing external programming devices.
The product line offers five different measurement centre distances: 30 mm, 50 mm, 100 mm, 200 mm, and 400 mm. Depending on the specific model, the measuring ranges vary from ±5 mm up to ±200 mm, while repeatability spans from 10 μm to 800 μm. Linearity specifications are ±0.1% full scale for the 30 mm, 50 mm, and 100 mm models, and ±0.2% or ±0.3% full scale for those designed for longer ranges. These sensors provide multiple output options, including analog voltage (0–5 V), analog current (4–20 mA), as well as NPN or PNP open-collector control outputs, all with selectable Light-ON or Dark-ON modes.
Encased within a compact housing rated IP67 for protection, the HG-C series sensors are built to operate reliably under temperatures ranging from -10°C to +45°C. They also exhibit strong resistance to vibration and shock, making them suitable for challenging industrial environments. Powering these sensors requires a 12–24 V DC supply, with a low current consumption of 40 mA or less at 24 V DC. Users can choose from three selectable response times: 1.5 ms, 5 ms, or 10 ms. Compliance certifications available for various models include CE, UKCA, FDA, and UL/c-UL.
Features:
The compact CMOS optical design incorporates a built-in mirror that effectively reduces the sensor depth without compromising the precision typically expected from displacement sensors. This innovative feature allows for a more streamlined device while maintaining high measurement accuracy.
Measurements are conveniently displayed in millimetres via a digital 7-segment display. This direct readout simplifies the process of setting thresholds and enables quick on-site verification of measured distances, enhancing user efficiency.
The device supports multiple measuring ranges, offering centre distances of 30, 50, 100, 200, and 400 millimetres. These options cover measurement spans ranging from ±5 mm up to ±200 mm, making the sensor versatile for various applications.
High repeatability is a key feature, with accuracy starting from 10 micrometres on the HG-C1030 model and extending to 800 micrometres on the HG-C1400 at distances between 200 and 400 millimetres. This ensures consistent and reliable measurement results.
For external data integration and scaling, dual analog outputs are provided, including both 0–5 V voltage and 4–20 mA current outputs. These outputs facilitate flexible connectivity with other instruments and control systems.
The sensor’s response time is selectable among three options: 1.5 ms, 5 ms, and 10 ms. This feature allows users to balance between measurement speed and operational stability based on their specific needs.
Control output is designed with versatility and safety in mind, offering an NPN or PNP open-collector transistor output. Users can select between Light-ON or Dark-ON modes, and the output includes short-circuit protection for added durability.
Built to withstand challenging industrial environments, the sensor boasts an IP67 rating, ensuring it is both dust-tight and water-resistant for reliable operation under harsh conditions.
Compliance with a broad range of certifications underlines the sensor’s quality and safety standards. These include CE (EMC/RoHS), UKCA, FDA laser notice compliance, and UL/c-UL recognitions.
Additionally, the device is energy-efficient, consuming 40 mA or less at 24 V DC and 65 mA or less at 12 V DC, making it suitable for applications where low power consumption is crucial.

Applications:
Position and presence detection is essential for verifying the delivery and accurate placement of workpieces on transfer robots and assembly stations. This ensures that each component is correctly positioned before the next stage of production begins.
Stack height and quantity verification involves measuring the height of stacked items or confirming the number of layers during material handling processes. This helps maintain consistency and accuracy in inventory and assembly lines.
Thickness and dimension inspection plays a crucial role in manufacturing by enabling inline measurements of parts, sheets, and various components. This process ensures that all items meet specified dimensional requirements.
Displacement monitoring provides real-time feedback for positioning stages, presses, and forming equipment. This continuous monitoring allows for precise adjustments during operations, enhancing overall accuracy and efficiency.
Quality control is achieved through go/no-go inspections that utilize threshold settings based on digital distance readings. This method facilitates quick and reliable assessments to maintain high product standards.
Robot guidance systems benefit from analog distance feedback, which supports pick-and-place and automated handling applications. By providing accurate positioning data, this feedback improves the performance and reliability of robotic operations.
