The O6 type photoelectric sensors from ifm are now also available in a stable plastic housing. The robust diffuse reflection sensor features reliable background interference suppression. The ranges are set via potentiometer and a rotary switch which is intuitive and simple (light-on/dark-on selection). The sensing range is independent of the characteristics and colour of the object being detected.
With the O6 sensors, highly reflective backgrounds like stainless steel, as well as moving machine parts, do not affect the background suppression. The clearly defined round light spot in the operating area ensures a consistent light distribution in the light cone. Scattered light around the light spot which could potentially disturb other photoelectric sensors due to reflections is completely avoided. This provides additional safety.
For the compact unit (13 x 41 x 21 mm) ifm offers variants with PUR connection cable, M12 pigtail or a robust M8 metal connector on the housing. The sensors are also available as through-beam and retroreflective systems. A wide range of mounting accessories allows universal installation without problem.
