Suggested applications

Engineering suggestions require suitability checks for your installation.

1. Small part passage detection

Detect small opaque parts as they pass through a compact mechanism.

Potential use

Position the object through the 5 mm slot and verify alignment, target opacity and switching timing.

5 mm slot NPN

2. Mechanism position feedback

Read a moving flag or interrupter in a machine mechanism or assembly fixture.

Potential use

Choose the L-shaped body form for mounting access and connect the NPN output to a compatible input.
