If you need to distinguish and calibrate objects as part of an industrial manufacturing process, for instance, consider this photoelectric sensor from the trusted RS PRO range. Using the combination of a light beam and polarising filter to detect the reflective surface of an object and then align it, it can perceive objects up to 28 m distant. Background blanking technology increases the device's accuracy.

The unit comprises a reflector and a mounting bracket to help you install it. The retroreflective barrel sensor is housed in a nickel-plated brass body that will resist corrosion.

The product is CE-certified and UL-listed, and also meets standards E348498 and NRKH7. These certifications and standards mean it's considered a safe, sustainable and effective device. In addition, it's IP67 rated, so it's water- and dirt-resistant.
