Suggested applications
Engineering suggestions require suitability checks for your installation.
1. Machine station part detection
Monitor a part or package at a machine station in an environment where oil exposure is possible.
Potential use
Select the appropriate sensing mode and verify range and alignment using the actual target and reflector where required.

IP67
2. Conveyor passage monitoring
Detect product flow at a conveyor or transfer point with a metal-bodied photoelectric sensor.
Potential use
Set output polarity and Light-ON/Dark-ON logic to suit the controller input, then validate machine response.
