Functions and Operating Principle

The sensor uses background suppression technology, which automatically distinguishes an object from its background regardless of color or reflectivity.
Ensures stable detection even under bright ambient light or when the background is close.
The red light spot allows precise positioning of the detection point, while LED indicators provide clear visual feedback of the operating status.

Usage and Applications

For home users or hobbyists: Suitable for object detection in workshops or custom automation projects.
For engineers / automation specialists: Ideal for robotics, conveyors, production lines, packaging detection, and quality control systems.
For electricians / technicians: Easy installation with M3 thread and nuts. Clear 360° LED indication simplifies alignment and diagnostics.

Pros

Compact M3 housing – fits in confined spaces
