The ML3 series of thru-beam subminiature photoelectric sensors provide response times faster than 1 millisecond with ultra-miniature housings of 22mm-by-8mm-by-11mm, making them well suited for space-restricted applications, the vendor says.
Thru-beam models offer long-range sensing, with operating ranges of up to 1.5 meters. Horizontal and vertical housing allow the lens to be place on either the end or side of the housing for maximum mounting flexibility. Thru-beam models have separate transmitter and receiver housing and a wide range of aperture accessories that allow the user to adjust the beam to suit the needs of the application.
