ACS 100

Overview

The ACS 100 is a frame type counting sensor designed for reliably counting freely-falling small objects. The transmitter and receiver are integrated into a single housing — no separate alignment is required, making installation straightforward. With a 55×34 mm detection area and a 1 mm minimum detectable object size, it suits high-speed packaging, pharmaceutical, and agricultural counting applications.

1 mm minimum object size - counts seeds, tablets, small parts and more

Single-housing design - transmitter and receiver aligned from factory, no setup required

4 kHz switching frequency - handles high-speed production lines without missing counts

Adjustable contact time - 0.1 ms to 2 s selectable at order to match your controller

IP67 rated - fully protected against dust and water immersion

Works on metal and non-metal parts - 940 nm optical thru-beam principle
