Back Lights
In an effort to streamline and improve our LED Back Lights, we have standardized the Standard Back Light (BL) series and the Conveyor Back Light (EBL) series. Part numbers have been updated for both product lines: the BL series is now designated SBLxxxx‑XXX, and the EBL series is now offered as an option SBLxxxx‑XXX/WDC. Form, fit, and function remain the same, with the following enhancements:
- BL series housings are now white, improving uniformity and light intensity. The housings are now manufactured from HDPE, which is more environmentally friendly and can be recycled up to ten times.
- Diffusers are now standardized in size, with the only variation being the mounting method: white nylon screws or double‑sided tape. This allows easy field conversion to repurpose the back light.
- Mounting hole locations remain unchanged, except for models SBL24‑XXX and SBL26‑XXX, which were updated for consistency across the product line.
Back Lights are available in sizes ranging from 2″ × 2″ up to 22″ × 28″, with custom sizes available. Direct‑lit Back Lights contain 12 SMT LEDs per square inch and include a standard M12 4‑pin industrial connector. All Back Lights operate on 24 VDC for industrial environments and are built with a durable industrial‑grade housing and aluminum backplate. Units can operate in strobed or continuous mode and are available in Red, Green, Blue, White, and Infrared.
Conveyor Back Lights (/WDC option) are a direct‑fit, approved solution for QC Conveyors. They are available in lighted areas from 2″ × 2″ to 13″ × 16″ (corresponding conveyor opening dimensions 3″ × 3″ × 0.775″ to 14″ × 17″ × 0.775″). Contact us for larger sizes.
Back Lights are used across a wide range of machine vision applications to provide high‑contrast illumination for part inspection or robot alignment. Backlighting typically delivers higher contrast and better resolution than reflective lighting.
The Monster Back Light series provides up to five times the brightness of the Standard Series Back Lights.
