Product Overview
The D-44 BW Series Area Sensor is a high-performance through-beam type sensor designed for long-range detection up to 7 meters. It offers a wide sensing height range and minimizes unsensing areas with its narrow optical axis pitch (20mm for BW20- models). Featuring high-brightness LEDs for easy recognition from various angles and distances, this sensor includes essential self-diagnosis, mutual interference prevention, and external diagnosis functions. Its robust IP65 protection structure makes it suitable for demanding industrial environments.
