Product Description

The Keyence CA-DC21E is a versatile LED illumination controller designed for industrial machine vision systems, specifically compatible with the XG, CV-5000, CV-X200, and CV-X100 series. It offers two lighting control methods: constant voltage and pulse width modulation (PWM), allowing for precise illumination adjustments. The controller supports a maximum output capacity of 40 W (30 W per channel) and provides synchronization options for flash output or continuous lighting. With a response speed of up to 1 ms in PWM mode and a 255-level digital intensity range, it ensures rapid and accurate lighting control. The CA-DC21E features a user-friendly LED display for power and light volume indication, operates on a 24 VDC ±10% power supply, and weighs approximately 590 grams.
