The FPDK 07P6901 from Baumer is a high-performance retro-reflective photoelectric sensor designed to detect objects at a range of 0.6 to 0.8 meters using a pulsed red LED light source with a 660 nm wavelength. This compact sensor delivers fast, interference-resistant operation and is ideal for situations where the emitter and receiver must be housed in one unit. Its response time is under 0.5 ms, making it ideal for high-speed industrial automation.
Operating on an 11β30 VDC supply voltage and consuming just 25 mA, the sensor supports a PNP output circuit with a maximum current of 100 mA. It features short-circuit protection and maintains a low voltage drop of under 1.8 VDC. The housing is made of durable PMMA, MABS, and PA plastic, with compact dimensions of 8 mm x 17.8 mm x 12.6 mm, making it easy to integrate into tight installations. Its IP65 protection rating ensures long-term reliability in dusty and moist environments, while the bottom-side 2-meter cable enables flexible mounting. The integrated yellow LED indicator aids in quick sensor alignment and status monitoring, improving ease of maintenance.
The Baumer FPDK 07P6901 Retro-reflective Sensor is commonly used in bottle and carton detection on conveyors, label positioning in printing systems, and automated gate or door sensors where reflective object detection is critical. Maintenance engineers appreciate its quick installation and minimal need for calibration. Junior technicians find it easy to test and operate due to the visible LED indicator and consistent switching behavior. In training environments or labs, it serves as a clear example of retro-reflective sensing principles, bridging the gap between theory and real-world sensor applications. This sensor is a preferred choice for industries demanding both compact size and high detection reliability.
