The Autonics BRQM1M-DDTA uses a diffuse reflective sensing type with a reliable 1m detection range, suitable for opaque and translucent objects. This design eliminates the need for a separate reflector, making installation simpler in compact or hard-to-reach areas.
It features a 660nm red LED light source for easy optical alignment, a quick 1ms response time for high-speed detection, and a sensitivity adjuster for precise tuning based on object size, material, and environmental lighting. The sensor supports both Light ON and Dark ON modes via control wire selection, ensuring compatibility with varied PLC logic.
Powered by 10β30VDC with a maximum current draw of 30mA, it uses an NPN open collector output for seamless integration into control systems. The IP67-rated nickel-plated brass housing with acrylic lens cover offers superior resistance to dust, water, and oils, while operating reliably from β25Β°C to 60Β°C in ambient light up to 11,000lx sunlight.
