Balluff BVS-OI-3-003-E CMOS Image Sensor

Balluff BVS-OI-3-003-E CMOS Image Sensor is a monochrome image sensor within Balluff’s BVS OI-3 object identification family, designed to deliver grayscale images for inline identification tasks on automated production lines. The 003-E variant corresponds to a 12 mm focal-length optics configuration, and is listed under ordering code BVS0005 with typcode BVS OI-3-003-E, confirming its place in the 12 mm option set. This compact CMOS sensor module captures image data for real-time verification of object features, presence, and geometry, enabling straightforward integration with Balluff’s OI platform and downstream controllers. Its fixed focal length and small form factor suit tight installations where a consistent field of view is required, providing a reliable basis for simple pattern recognition and quality checks without external lighting or complex processing. Ideal for assembly lines, packaging, and small-part identification, the 003-E variant helps operators and systems confirm correct positioning and routing with deterministic imaging performance.
