The dual background suppression sensor, designated as ML6-8-H-40-RT/DS/25/95/136, is engineered for standard applications and offers a compact design ideal for constrained spaces. It operates within a detection range of 10 to 40 mm, with a maximum detection limit of 50 mm, ensuring precise object detection.

The sensor utilizes two LEDs to emit visible red light at a wavelength of 660 nm, with a specified black-white difference of approximately 3 mm. The light spot diameter measures 3.5 mm at a distance of 9 mm when the detection range is set to 40 mm. With an opening angle of around 5°, the sensor effectively minimizes background interference starting from 50 mm.

Designed for robust functionality, this sensor’s electrical specifications include an operating voltage range of 10 to 30 V DC, with a no-load supply current under 20 mA. It features two push-pull outputs that are short-circuit and reverse polarity protected, handling a maximum switching voltage of 30 V DC and a switching current of up to 100 mA. The response time is quick, at just 1 ms, with a maximum switching frequency of 500 Hz.

The device complies with product standard EN 60947-5-2 and demonstrates excellent resistance to shock and vibration according to IEC / EN 60068 standards. With a degree of protection rated at IP67/IP69K, it is suitable for harsh environments, operating in temperatures ranging from -20 to 60 °C. The sensor is housed in ABS material, and its optical face is made of PMMA, contributing to...
