The tried and tested photoelectric O5D sensors from ifm electronic are distinguished by switch point setting to the nearest centimetre, colour-independent detection and reliable background suppression. The PMDLine series even detect shiny surfaces without any difficulty. ifm has now extended this sensor family with laser class 1 allowing it to meet the requirements of applications in the automotive industry.
In its compact housing, the O5D variant combines long range, reliable background suppression, visible red light and high excess gain – plus laser class 1. Another advantage is the ease of use and switch point setting to the nearest centimetre via +/- buttons and display. The O5D family is an intelligent alternative to standard sensors, since its price and size are in the same range.
Whether shiny, matt, dark or light objects of any colour, reliable background suppression is always ensured. The sensors offer high flexibility of installation and can be easily mounted at any angle of incidence. Additionally, the units are equipped with IO-Link. These specialists among photoelectric sensors raise the bar for conventional sensors.
