Available from ifm electronic, the
O7 series is a powerful range of
photoelectric sensors in a compact
design. The latest addition to the
opto family detects small parts even
in tight spaces, making it suitable for
part feeding and handling machines.

The O7 family has dimensions of
15 by 20 by 9mm, and the sensing
axis means front-to-back the sensor
depth of 9mm gives more room for
manoeuvre. They are available as
diffuse reflection sensors with
background suppression, retroreflective
sensors with polarisation
filter or as through-beam
transmitters or receivers.With their
fixed setting, the sensors are ready
for operation immediately after
installation.
