long distance detection area sensor Autonics BW40-06P with high brightness leds and aluminum case
Product Overview
The D-44 BW Series Area Sensor is a through-beam type photoelectric sensor designed for long-distance detection up to 7 meters. It offers a wide range of configurations with 22 product types, featuring optical axis pitches of 20mm or 40mm and sensing heights from 120mm to 940mm. The 20mm optical axis pitch minimizes unsensing areas, making it ideal for applications requiring precise detection. High-brightness LEDs on both the emitter and receiver ensure easy recognition from various angles and distances. The sensor is equipped with self-diagnosis, mutual interference prevention, and external diagnosis functions for reliable operation. Its robust IP65 protection structure (IEC standard) makes it suitable for demanding industrial environments.
