The CROMLAVIEW® CR50-FO color sensor is very compact due to its utility as a color sensor with fixed optics.The sensor aids in recognizing the finest color differences on all surfaces. Its working distance ranges between 30-60mm, and accordingly the diameter of the measuring spot varies between 5-10mm. It can easily be programmed using intuitive and simple button operations. A mounting bracket is used for aligning the sensor on the measuring object. The functional principle of the CR50-FO applies the three range procedure.Assessment through tristimulus value functions of the sensor, aids in perceiving colors similar to the human eye. Also, the sensor contains its own white light source.
