Not affected by background

Stable detection with 2.5m
●2 kinds of sensors are lined-up,1m & 2.5m. It is available for
position detection or passing detection on the lines.
● It is less affected by colors, materials or shapes of detection
objects.
● It can make the severe setting without the affection of back-
ground because 2-segment photo diode is applied.
