Perfect for automation project
Used this for a small conveyor belt counter. The range is accurate and the separate emitter/receiver design makes alignment easy.

Reliable detection
No false triggers so far. I am using it with a PLC and the switching speed is sufficient for my application.

Solid build quality
Housing feels durable. The cables are a bit stiff but manageable. Detection range matches the description.

Good value sensor
Works well for the price. Wiring diagram could be clearer but once figured out it performs consistently.

Great for robotics
Integrated this into a mobile robot for obstacle avoidance. The infrared beam is stable and not easily affected by ambient light.
Q: Is this sensor suitable for outdoor use?
A: It has an IP65 rating which protects against dust and water jets, but direct sunlight may interfere with the infrared beam.
Q: Does this come with mounting brackets?
A: Yes, the package includes basic mounting hardware and screws for securing the emitter and receiver units.
Q: Can I extend the cable length?
A: Yes, you can extend the cables using shielded wire to prevent noise interference, especially for long distances.
Q: Can this sensor be directly connected to an Arduino?
A: Yes, but ensure you match the voltage levels. The sensor operates on 6-36V, so you may need a logic level converter for 5V Arduino pins.
Q: What is the exact wiring color code?
A: Typically Brown is VCC, Blue is GND, and Black is Signal. Please refer to the included datasheet for your specific batch.
