The FZDK 07N6901 by Baumer is a compact photoelectric sensor that operates on the principle of intensity difference detection, offering a precise sensing range of 20 to 150 mm. Its integrated pulsed red LED light source with a wavelength of 660 nm ensures reliable detection of objects with varying surface colors and textures. With a response time of less than 0.5 ms, the sensor is perfectly suited for rapid automation processes that require accurate, real-time object presence feedback.
Engineered to perform in harsh industrial environments, this model functions with a voltage range of 11β30 VDC while maintaining a low power consumption of just 25 mA. It supports a NPN output circuit capable of delivering up to 100 mA, with short-circuit protection and a voltage drop below 1.8 VDC, ensuring safe and stable operation. The sensor is housed in a rugged rectangular enclosure made from PMMA, MABS, and PA plastic, measuring just 8 mm x 16.2 mm x 10.8 mm. It is rated IP65 for protection against dust and low-pressure water jets and performs reliably in temperatures from -20Β°C to +50Β°C. Its 2-meter bottom-exit cable ensures easy and flexible installation within existing control panels and sensor mounts.
The Baumer FZDK 07N6901 Cable Type Photoelectric Sensor is widely used in packaging machinery to detect the presence of boxes or bottles, in conveyor systems for part counting and positioning, and in automated labeling stations where precise edge detection is essential. Junior maintenance engineers find it easy to install and troubleshoot, thanks to its compact size and visible yellow LED indicator. Senior engineers appreciate the fast response and robustness in environments where sensors are exposed to frequent vibrations or dust. For students and trainers, this sensor offers an excellent introduction to NPN switching logic and LED-based object detection in real-world conditions. Whether you're upgrading legacy equipment or building a new automation line, the FZDK 07N6901 provides dependable detection in a sleek and cost-effective package.
