Baumer FHDK 10P1101/KS35 Diffuse Sensor

The diffuse sensor, also known as a photoelectric proximity switch, reflex sensor, or optical switch, is an optical sensor in electrical engineering with the type number FHDK 10P1101/KS35 from Baumer for non-contact detection of objects based on light reflection. It has the dimensions 11 x 8 x 2 cm and weighs 0.02 kg. Diffuse sensors reliably detect objects via the reflection of emitted light from the object's surface, without requiring a separate reflector or receiver. They offer high precision and are particularly suitable for presence detection or position monitoring in industrial applications. Typical applications include conveyor technology for detecting workpieces on assembly lines, and in the packaging industry for monitoring fill levels in containers.
