Smart Vision LightsSmart Vision Lights has introduced the SF30 fiber adapter to the Prox Light® series of single LED spotlights for illuminating tight spaces in industrial applications, including machine vision systems.

The product comes with a 1-m plastic fiber bundle for illuminating tight areas where small spotlights cannot be used. Whether it is bending around objects or peering into a small hole, the adapter maintains the intensity and focus pattern of the light. The plastic fiber can be trimmed to shorter sizes, and longer fibers also are available.

The spotlights feature single 5-W LEDs housed in small 30-mm barrel sensor housings.  The housings are the industry standard threaded barrel M30x1.5 style used for proximity and photoelectric sensors. The lights are available in white, red, amber, blue, green cyan, IR, and UV light output.

This light series includes an integrated constant current driver inside every light along with built-in strobe input with option for PNP or NPN trigger control. The integrated driver eliminates the need for wiring between the light and external driver and limits current to the LED while providing constant stable power. The light’s PNP or NPN strobe triggers control light pulse timing.

The series includes the S30, ODSA30, SA30, ODS20 with OverDrive, and the SW30.

The S30 features a 5-W, high-brightness (HB) high-current LED running up to 1.4 amps with built-in SMART driver with PNP and NPN strobe. The ODSA30 features a sliding barrel that provides adjustable output and a uniform homogenous pattern of light and optics that provide a tight, focused, adjustable light. The SA30 is an adjustable, tight-focus spotlight with integrated optics. It allows users to increase or decrease the size of the focused spot by extending or retracing the barrel, providing flexibility to adjust the spot as needed.

The ODS30 with OverDrive features the highest power LED lights in the vision industry, claims the company, and is capable of achieving up to five times the light intensity of standard high current LED lights. The SW30’s stainless steel design meets FDA standards for corrosion resistance in food and pharmaceutical applications and is corrosion-resistant.

The series comes with a universal, internal driver for simplified wiring and complies with IEC eye safety standards
