September 27, 2009 - Pepperl+Fuchs introduces GLD3 Series Label Detection Sensors. With a quick and easy one-step teach and fast 100 µs response, GLD3 photoelectric slot sensors are specifically designed to detect paper, foil and many types of translucent adhesive labels on a roll. GLD3 through beam sensors feature a robust, one-piece IP66 housing and are available with NPN and PNP outputs, and 3mm sensing range. A remote teach option is available, as are a choice of cabled or connector options to satisfy varying application needs.The GLD3 series’ slotted design makes them well suited for use in web break detection, double sheet detection, splice detection, edge guiding and end-of-roll detection applications.
