Dual Background Suppression Sensor
Product Description
The dual background suppression sensor is designed for standard applications and features a compact form factor. With a detection range adjustable from 7 mm to 20 mm and a maximum detection capacity of 25 mm, it is suitable for precise object detection. This sensor utilizes 660 nm visible red light emitted from two LEDs, ensuring reliable performance even in varying ambient light conditions, with limits of 40,000 Lux for continuous light and 5,000 Lux for modulated light.
Operational efficiency is supported by two push-pull outputs that are short-circuit protected and reverse polarity protected, allowing for a maximum switching voltage of 30 V DC and a maximum switching current of 100 mA. The sensor's rapid response time of 1 ms and switching frequency of 500 Hz enhance its functionality in dynamic environments.
In terms of durability, the device is rated with an IP67/IP69K protection class, making it suitable for harsh conditions. The operating temperature range of -20 °C to 60 °C and storage temperature up to -20 °C to 75 °C contribute to its versatility. Compliance with relevant standards, including EN 60947-5-2 and IEC 60947-5-2, assures reliability and safety.
This sensor is identified by the designation code ML6-8-H-20-RT/DS/25/95/136, ensuring its compatibility with various applications.
