BALLUFF BOS029F INTRODUCTION
Balluff diffuse sensors with background suppression detect objects within a set switching distance, without being affected by reflective backgrounds. Object and background can be differentiated very definitively, especially as these diffuse sensors are characterized by their low gray value shift and hysteresis.
Since the transmitter and receiver are housed together in a single unit to save space, you can easily mount Balluff diffuse sensors and align them quickly. In addition, the highly visible light beam with the versions available in red light, blue light, and lasers makes it easier for you to do this. With IO-Link, teach-in, or via a potentiometer, you can easily adjust many sensor versions. Versions with fixed switching distances are also available.
You can also find the BOS0270 and BOS029E models in the BALLUFF Diffuse Sensor With Background Suppression.
