Baumer FSDK 10D96/405685 Through-beam sensor

The Baumer through-beam sensor, with type number FSDK 10D96/405685, is an electrical light sensor, also known as a photoelectric through-beam switch or separate emitter-receiver light barrier. It has the dimensions 15 x 15 x 5 cm and weighs 0.07 kg. Through-beam sensors are used for non-contact object detection over larger distances. An emitter sends a light beam to a separate receiver; an interruption of this beam triggers a switching signal. Typical applications are found in industrial automation, such as position monitoring on conveyor belts, material flow control in logistics, or presence detection in assembly systems.
