Key Features:
- Background suppression for reliable detection of shiny, dark, or variable surfaces
- High ambient light immunity
- Compact M18 threaded metal housing
- Fast response time for dynamic applications
- IO-Link available on select models
Available Options:
- PNP or NPN switching outputs
- Cable or M12 metal plug connections
- 3-wire or 4-wire configurations
- Red or infrared LED light sources
Working Distances by Variant:
- Red light models: up to 400 mm
- Infrared models: up to 800 mm
- Short-range red light models: up to 320 mm
Typical Applications:
- Conveyor and assembly line part detection
- Packaging and material handling
- Presence detection in robotics and machine automation
