Detailed Specifications
Sensing and Operation
The BPS series sensors utilize infrared light with a peak emission wavelength of 850 nm to detect objects. They are designed to sense opaque materials with a minimum target size of ≥ 5 mm. The sensors offer two operational modes—Light ON and Dark ON—providing versatility in various applications.
Power and Output
These sensors operate on a power supply of 12-24 VDC with a low current consumption of ≤ 20 mA for both the emitter and receiver. They are available with NPN and PNP open collector outputs, supporting load voltages up to 30 VDC and load currents of up to 100 mA.
Build Quality and Resistance
The BPS series sensors are built to withstand challenging industrial environments. They feature an IP67 protection rating, making them highly resistant to dust and water ingress. The sensors can operate within a wide temperature range, from -25 to 65 °C, and endure humidity levels from 35% to 85% RH.
Applications
The BPS series sensors are ideal for a range of industrial applications where space is limited and high reliability is required. Their long sensing distance and durable construction make them suitable for use in automation systems, conveyor belts, and other industrial setups.
