The CROMLAVIEW® CR200P color sensor processes colors in a perceptual way (i.e. according to human perception). The two channels allow for applications that demand high standards of the sensor technology. By using the second color sensor channel this sensor can be used in different modes of operation.

For easy integration in industrial automation, the CR200P has been equipped with a Profibus interface. This interface, which is frequently used for the control of sensors and actuators in production engineering, supports data rates of up to 12 Mbit/s. The control itself is performed by a central control (SPS), which often plays an important role in standard diagnostic options.
