  • Photoelectric sensor | polarized | for transparent object detection | 2000mm | M18 | 10-30VDC | NO/NC | PNP | M12| nickel-copper housing | red light beam | IP67

    Code: PSM-GM2DPBR-E2

    Photoelectric sensor for transparent object detection – a reliable and precise automation component designed for detecting bottles, films, glass surfaces, or other transparent materials.
    The device operates on the principle of polarized light reflection, using a red light source to ensure precise detection even with transparent, glossy, or reflective objects.

    Thanks to its compact cylindrical body and short housing design, the sensor is ideal for systems where space is limited.
    The potentiometer allows for quick detection distance adjustment, while the 360° visible LED indicator provides a clear view of the operating status.

    Main functions:

    The sensor operates on the polarized reflection principle – the light beam from the emitter reflects off a special reflector and returns to the receiver.
    When a transparent object (e.g., bottle, film, or glass) passes between the sensor and the reflector, the beam is interrupted, and the sensor is triggered instantly.
    This design ensures highly precise and stable detection even with complex surfaces.

    Application:

    For home user: Suitable for object detection in workshops or personal automation projects.
    For engineer / automation specialist: Used in packaging lines, beverage production, plastic or glass industries, filling and positioning systems. Thanks to fast response and accuracy, it is ideal for detecting transparent bottles, films, or packaging during production.
    For electrician / technician: Easily connectable to PLCs, relays, or direct automation systems. IP67 protection ensures safe operation in humid or dusty environments.

    Advantages:

    Detects transparent and reflective objects (bottles, films, glass)

    Adjustable detection distance

    Compact housing – fits in tight spaces

    360° LED indicator – convenient operation monitoring

    IP67 sealing – protection against moisture and dust

    Disadvantages:

    Not suitable for very small (<10 mm) objects unless sensitivity is adjusted
