description
Optoelectronic sensors are indispensable components in all
automated production processes. They are used in all applications where parts are to be detected, counted, measured
or positioned in a way which does not involve contact and
which is reliable and fast.
The devices feature a brass housing and are often used in
connection with a PLC for automatic production processes
and machines. For example, they detect objects made from
metal, glass, plastic, wood and paper.
Functional monitoring of the sensor is possible for throughbeam sensors using the test input in the transmitter. For
this, the operating voltage potential is applied to the corresponding contact.
Objects are reliably recognized, regardless of their color. The
functional principle behind these sensing devices is based

on triangulation principle, in which the position of the
object is determined by the light reflected from it.
The sensors all work with visible red light and consequently, enable reliable and simple adjustment.
The yellow LED display lights up if the output
is securely switched. If the green LED flashes when the output is switched, the respective device is working without
sufficient functional reserve, e.g. through soiling or maladjustment.
application examples
checking the presence of various objects
avoiding collision, in the case of feeding movements
monitoring object and stack heights
limit switches, position switches and pulse generators
