IFM Electronic OA5201 Reflex Photoelectric Sensor with Background Suppression

The reflex photoelectric sensor with background suppression, also known as reflex light barrier, reflex diffuse sensor, or photocell with background suppression, from IFM Electronic with type number OA5201 is an electrical photoelectric sensor for non-contact object detection and position sensing. It features a rectangular plastic housing and operates on the diffuse reflective principle. It is equipped with a 5-wire DC PNP complementary output and offers a range of 200-800 mm, as well as a terminal chamber for connection. It has the dimensions 4 x 10 x 11 cm and weighs 0.235 kg. Reflex photoelectric sensors with background suppression are used to reliably detect objects, even when the background is reflective or close to the object, making them ideal for demanding detection tasks. Typical applications are found in industrial automation for material flow control on conveyor belts or for presence detection of products in packaging machines.
