The LRD6300 is the highest performing clear label sensor currently on the market. Its registration accuracy, speed, versatility (including clear labels), and easy to understand graphic setup indicator make it the most popular choice.

Be Confident. Try an LRD6300 Without Risk

• 30-Day Guarantee. If the sensor doesn't work better than what you have, you can return it.
• Capacitive label sensors are the best performing.
• Over 50,000 LRD label sensors have been selected for pressure sensitive labelers around the world.
• Best tech support and lots of technical data if you need it.
• The only label sensors with a two-year warranty.

Be Quick. Keep Your Line Running

Easy, One-Click Setup: Simply remove a label and place the missing label area in the sensor (liner only in the sensor) and hold the "G" (Gap) button down for one second.
Go!
Manual adjustment remains available if you want to adjust it further -YOU are always in control. Watch the setup video .

Avoid costly "eye-marks" on label webs which are required for optical sensors. Clear label sensors pay for themselves quickly when you stop ordering eye-marks on your labels.

Be Fast and Accurate. Select the Right Label Sensor

LRD6300 Capacitive Label Sensor works reliably with virtually all labels - clear, paper, or metallic. Capacitive technology is the fastest and most accurate.

Easy Push-Button Adjustments

Buttons are easy to push, and the hard-coated polyester overlay means they won't wear or crack for at least 1,000,000 operations. Visual push-button indicator confirms button presses and lets you know if you're out of range.

How Simple Can It Be?

1. Peel off a label or place a gap in the sensor;
2. Hold the Gap ("G") button for one second and you're set.

With Easy-Check Verification, a simple glance at the large, bright indicator, even from a distance, assures the operator the sensor is working properly.
Setup is good when there are lights in LABEL area and lights in GAP area.
No tiny, confusing data displays to interpret.

Easy Configuration

Light/Dark Switching indicators make it easy to tell which mode you're in. One press of the L/D button changes the mode.

High Gain

High Gain mode allows you to sense very tiny or thin labels other sensors may struggle with.

The CPL230 is new precision capacitive displacement sensor system from Lion Precision featuring up to six sensors in a small space. Its performance approaches that of top-of-the-line systems but costs 25% less and is ideal for embedded OEM applications.

Engineers and designers who develop equipment requiring precise noncontact position sensing have struggled with getting the performance they need into the small space and budget they have available. Multi-channel precision capacitive displacement sensor systems are often large modular designs offering user adjustments and indicators. These systems have many uses, but for OEM applications, the electronics may be buried in a cabinet where users cannot see the displays or make adjustments. And OEM applications require cost control.

Lion Precision’s new CPL230 changes all of that. The new sensor system can support up to six channels of capacitive sensing with performance approaching that of their top-of-the-line Elite Series modular systems. Resolutions as high as 0.0007% at 100 Hz or 0.004% at 15 kHz. It does all this in 4x2x8 inch package (100x50x200 mm). A differential output is provided for maximum performance when output connections must traverse longer distances through machines.

The CPL230 has color-coded channels and probes for easy installation into machines. With no user adjustments or displays, the electronics can be installed in out-of-the-way places. Systems typically ship with 15 kHz bandwidth. Users can access an internal dip-switch to set the bandwidth to 15 kHz, 10 kHz, 1 kHz, 100 Hz. The bandwidth selection allows users to opt for higher resolutions or higher speeds.

The system is easier on designer’s budgets at approximately 25% lower cost than the Elite Series systems.

The CPL230 replaces Lion Precision’s Compact Driver. The Compact Driver was also designed for embedded use and lower cost but could not provide the higher measurement performance required by some designs.

Lion Precision introduced capacitive displacement sensors to industry in 1958. The company has expanded its product offering to include eddy-current displacement sensors and some application specific sensors for the machine tool, packaging and PCB industries. The company is built on assisting users with sensor selection and implementation by providing technical knowledge resources, expert guidance and optimized systems including custom designs. Lion Precision provides high-performance noncontact sensors and experts to help use them.

The CPA100 is a high-precision capacitive, noncontact proximity switch with a nonlinear analog output. The analog output provides linear position sensor feedback while the precision repeatable switched output alerts operators and systems to conditions. Rectangular and cylindrical probes provide options for a variety of applications. Vacuum compatible systems are available.

Export Requirements

Because of high resolutions, exports of the CPA100 may require an export license.

CPA100e

The CPA100e has different resolution specifications and can ship without export license delays.

Proximity Sensors and Displacement Sensors

Proximity sensors are often used for simple presence/absence detection - this is why they are often called proximity "switches." But some applications require higher performance measurement. Applications where the difference between present and absent may only be a few microns require higher resolution sensors than a typical proximity switch. The CPA100 can resolve a target's position to less than 50 microns and do so at up to 15 kHz. It also provides a nonlinear analog output to provide feedback proportional to the target's position.
