The IFM E21168 is a glass protective pane designed for compatible DUALIS vision sensors in industrial inspection applications. It protects the sensor front pane from contamination, impact and mechanical damage while maintaining a transparent optical surface. The product uses a robust black die-cast zinc housing with a float glass lens. Its compact dimensions of 57 × 42 × 4.9 mm allow easy integration with compatible vision systems. It provides a durable protective solution for demanding machine vision environments.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The E21168 uses a transparent float glass lens to provide a durable protective surface in front of the vision sensor. Glass construction offers a robust solution for applications where resistance to mechanical contact and surface wear is important. The protective pane helps shield the sensor optics from external contamination and damage. It is designed for compatible DUALIS vision sensors. This supports reliable operation in industrial inspection environments.
The protective pane provides an additional physical barrier between the sensor and the surrounding production environment. It helps protect the front surface against dirt, impact and shock. This can reduce the risk of direct damage to the sensor's optical area. The design is intended for easy and economical fixing. The accessory can therefore be integrated into existing vision inspection installations.
The E21168 measures 57 × 42 × 4.9 mm and weighs approximately 48.5 g. The housing is manufactured from black die-cast zinc, while the lens uses float glass. The compact form allows the protective window to be positioned close to the sensor. Its robust construction makes it suitable for industrial environments. The product is supplied as one protective pane.
