Keyence Corporation LV-H42 Reflective Sensor Head

Keyence LV-H42 Reflective Sensor Head is a compact optical sensing head from Keyence Corporation that uses a 650 nm semiconductor laser to emit light and capture reflections from nearby targets. As a reflective sensor head, it is designed to be integrated with a compatible sensing system to detect objects via reflected laser light, enabling precise sensing in compact installations. The LV-H42 model designation identifies this unit within Keyence's line of reflective sensing components, and the 650 nm wavelength specifies the red laser light used for detection. Featuring a self-contained emission and sensing package, the LV-H42 is suited for applications where space is limited and the target can be detected by surface reflectivity. This description reflects the product's core identity: a laser-based reflective sensor head manufactured by Keyence Corporation that provides a single-point sensing head for integration into broader automation or measurement setups.
