Compact Photoelectric Sensors BYD Series

Product Overview

The BYD Series compact photoelectric sensors, equipped with built-in amplifiers, deliver superior performance and exceptional value. Designed with a small footprint, these sensors are versatile and adaptable to a wide range of applications. The series offers multiple detection methods, including through-beam, diffuse reflective, and convergent reflective types, providing users with flexibility in various settings. Notably, the BYD30-DDT-U and BYD50-DDT-U models feature an operation indicator on the top, enabling users to easily monitor the sensor's status.

Key Features

• Compact Size: The BYD Series sensors are designed for easy installation in space-constrained environments, making them ideal for a wide range of applications.
• Convergent Reflective Type: This sensor type excels in detection without being affected by the color of the target, ensuring consistent and reliable performance.
• Operation Indicator: Selected models, such as the BYD30-DDT-U and BYD50-DDT-U, include a top-mounted operation indicator, providing clear visual feedback on the sensor’s status.
• Adjustable Response Time: Users can easily adjust the response time using the built-in timer function, with an OFF delay range from 0.1 to 2 seconds.
• Robust Protection Circuits: The sensors are equipped with reverse power protection and output short overcurrent protection circuits, enhancing durability and safety during operation.

Detection Methods

Through-Beam Type

The through-beam type in the BYD Series can detect opaque materials over a distance of up to 3 meters. This type is best suited for applications requiring precise detection over longer distances.

Diffuse Reflective Type

The diffuse reflective sensors in this series can detect both opaque and translucent materials at a distance of up to 100 mm. This method is ideal for shorter-range applications where direct detection of the object is necessary.

Convergent Reflective Type

The convergent reflective sensors, which can detect objects within a 10 to 50 mm range, offer superior performance in applications where the color of the target might vary. This method ensures detection accuracy, unaffected by the target's color.

Environmental and Mechanical Durability

The BYD Series sensors are designed to operate reliably in challenging environments. They are resistant to vibrations and shocks, withstanding vibration frequencies of 10 to 55 Hz and shocks up to 500 m/s². Additionally, the sensors are protected against water and dust ingress, with selected models achieving an IP64 rating.

Applications

The BYD Series is suitable for a variety of applications, including:

• Manufacturing: Ideal for detecting components on assembly lines, regardless of color or material.
• Packaging: Efficient in detecting packaging materials, ensuring accuracy even with translucent or reflective surfaces.
• Automation: Used in automated systems for precise detection and positioning, enhancing overall system efficiency.
