Vision Sensor Overview

The Keyence IV-500CA is a 24VDC vision sensor designed for standard-distance inspection tasks in industrial environments. It uses a 1/3 inch colour CMOS imager with a 752 by 480 pixel resolution to capture images for automated quality checks. The unit provides four outputs and six inputs for direct integration with PLCs or other control equipment. A built-in white LED illumination source supports both pulse and DC lighting modes.

Sustained Operation Behaviour

During continuous production runs the sensor maintains consistent image acquisition thanks to its switchable pulse and DC lighting modes. Pulse lighting reduces heat build-up and motion blur on fast lines, while DC lighting offers steady illumination for static or slower inspections. The 100BASE-TX and 10BASE-T Ethernet link via an M12 4-pin connector enables reliable data transfer without bandwidth saturation over long shifts.

Upgrade Path And Fit

This model replaces older monochrome or lower-resolution vision sensors that lack integrated lighting or flexible I/O. The jump is worthwhile when an application demands colour discrimination, four discrete outputs and six configurable inputs in a single compact housing. It is not suited for applications requiring higher pixel counts, longer working distances or gigabit Ethernet throughput.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the 24 VDC vision sensor generate when running all day?

The unit operates on a 24 VDC supply with pulse or DC lighting modes; typical power draw stays low, so continuous operation adds minimal heat to an enclosure.

What cables or power supply must I already have to connect the M12 Ethernet and I/O?

You need a 24 VDC power source, an M12 4-pin Ethernet cable for 100BASE-TX or 10BASE-T, and flying-lead cables for the 4 outputs and 6 inputs.

Will the 752 x 480 CMOS imager and M12 Ethernet work with my older PLC that only speaks 10BASE-T?

Yes, the sensor supports both 100BASE-TX and 10BASE-T on the M12 connector, so it communicates directly with legacy 10BASE-T PLCs.
