The retro-reflex sensor for transparent objects works with red light and a reflector. Where conventional retro-reflex light barriers reach their limits, this retro-reflective barrier for clear glass recognition ensures that extremely shiny objects like glass, PET bottles, trays or film can be detected. Via the single-lens optic without blind spots, the sensor can detect objects even through small holes and gaps. The IO-Link interface can be used to configure retro-reflective barriers (PNP/NPN, NC/NO, switching distance), as well as for reading out switching statuses and signal values.
