Product Specification

SMARTEYE Stealth-UV Luminescence Sensor Description
The SMARTEYE^® STEALTH-UV™ sensor is a special purpose sensor designed to detect the presence of invisible fluorescent materials contained in or added to paper, chalks, inks, paint, greases, glue, or optical brighteners found in labels, tape, string, etc. The sensor contains an ultraviolet (UV) solid state light source that is used to excite the luminescent materials to fluoresce in the visible range. The sensor's detector then responds to the visible fluorescing light.

SMARTEYE Stealth-UV Luminescence Sensor Advantage
• Wide Selection of Ranges - 1/2" to 24"
• Unique Fiberoptic Model
• Forgiving Depth-of-Focus Tolerance - Eliminates frequent adjustments
• Distinguishes between low UV Contrast Levels
• High Performance at an Economical Price
• Digital and Analog Models

SMARTEYE Stealth-UV Luminescence Sensor Typical Applications
• Missing labels or label positions on bottles and containers
• Invisible registration marks for positioning, printing and cutting
• LOCTITE P/N 24221 on machine threads or bolts
• Tamperproof seals
• Marks (chalk) for grading or sorting lumber, hardwood, and tile products
• Pull tabs on packages
