BW Series General Purpose Area Sensors

The BW series general purpose area sensors feature long sensing distance up to 7 m and are available in 22 different configurations based on the number of optics, optical pitch, and detection area size. With ambient illuminance limit of 100,000 lux, the sensors can minimize operation errors under direct sunlight. Bright LED indicators are present in both the emitter and the receiver, making it easy to identify the operation status. Mutual interference prevention is possible with master/slave connection method, allowing multiple units to be installed in a row.

How to distinguish between new and previous models
With ambient illuminance limit of 100,000 lux, the sensors can minimize operation errors under direct sunlight.

High ambient illuminance limit (up to100,000lx) minimizes operation errors under direct sunlight and strong incandescent light. High sensitivity optics minimize detection errors in dust or rain.

20mm Optical Pitch Minimizes Non-Detection Area (BW20-□)
Bright LED Status Indicators

Bright LED indicators on the emitter and receiver allow users to clearly identify operation status from various angles and distances.

Wide Detection Range from 0.1m to 7m

The sensors feature a wide detection range from 0.1m to 7m, for application in diverse environments.
