Balluff BOS 18K-5-B1.5-32-S4 Photoelectric Sensor Red Light Background Suppression

The photoelectric sensor with red light background suppression, also known as optical sensor, light barrier, or retro-reflective sensor, with type number BOS 18K-5-B1.5-32-S4 from Balluff, is an electrical sensor for reliable object detection in automation technology. It is specifically designed for detecting objects using red light and background suppression. The device features adjustable sensitivity and an M12 connector. It has dimensions of 2.3 x 2.3 x 9.1 cm and weighs 0.028 kg. Photoelectric sensors with background suppression precisely detect objects by only evaluating the light reflected from them and systematically ignoring disruptive background objects. Typical applications are found in industrial automation for presence and position detection of workpieces, as well as in conveying technology for controlling material flow and sorting products.
