Laser Displacement Sensors
KEYENCE's laser displacement sensors enable non-contact measurement of a target's height, position, or distance. By pairing multiple sensors, measurements such as thickness and width can also be performed. High-accuracy displacement sensors can be grouped into two categories: confocal and laser triangulation. Both provide accurate, reliable solutions for non-contact measurement, but depending on the application one type may offer an advantage over the other.
Products Lineup : High Precision Measurement (Reflective Distance Sensors)
Defining a new standard in laser displacement, this ultra-compact sensor can be installed almost anywhere. Confocal measurement simplifies mounting requirements and enables stable measurement of any surface or shape.
Features
Ultra-compact heads for worry-free installation
Ultra-compact and lightweight
The compact sensor heads, including the industry’s smallest at ø8 mm, enable measurement almost anywhere. Utilise previously impossible installation locations, parallel mounting, and other once-unattainable benefits.
Ultra-compact design (1/50th the size of conventional models)

* White confocal laser displacement sensor
Advanced environmental resistance
Measurement is now possible even at temperatures as high as 200°C, in ultra-high-vacuum environments, and in explosion-proof areas.
[WORLD’S FIRST] Support for ultra-high-vacuum environments*
No organic adhesives
The CL-V020/V050 do not use any organic adhesives in the sensor head, making it possible to minimise outgassing and operate in ultra-high-vacuum environments.
First-in-class 200°C heat resistance
The CL-V020/V050 can handle ambient temperatures of up to 200°C, allowing for use in environments with drastic temperature fluctuations.
Reliable IP67 dust and water-resistant design*
Measurement may become unstable due to light refraction if the lens is fully covered by water or oil.
The high water-resistant performance allows for use without worry in processing areas where water spray is likely.
* Excluding the CL-V020/V050 and CL-S015/S015EX/CL-PT01
This sensor utilises laser triangulation to balance best-in-class speed and accuracy to provide excellent performance for a wide range of applications.
Features
Stable Measurement on Any Target
Automatically adjusts the laser light intensity to the optimal level according to real time feedback from the target.
Variety of Sensor Heads Available
Handle any measurement situation thanks to a lineup of more than 20 different sensor heads.
6 sensor-heads are available with the newly-developed algorithm and 2 types of optical systems.
