ENQUIRE NOWProduct Overview
The Pepperl+Fuchs OBT150-R101-2EP1-IO-V31 is a miniature photoelectric triangulation sensor with background suppression (BGS), listed by the manufacturer as a diffuse mode sensor (BGS). It detects objects within an adjustable range of 25 … 150 mm while ignoring the background, with near colour-independent switching behaviour.
It provides two push-pull outputs and an IO-Link 1.1 interface for service and process data, uses modulated visible red light, and is housed in a compact polycarbonate body rated IP67 / IP69 / IP69K for an extended temperature range of -40 … 60 °C.
