The IFM E20651 is a fibre optic diffuse reflection sensor designed for flexible object detection in industrial automation. Its FT-11-EPA-M4/F1X1+160X0,265/2M configuration supports compact machine integration. The sensor uses reflected light to detect the presence of suitable targets. Fibre optic construction allows the sensing point to be positioned in restricted locations. It is suitable for automated production, assembly and material handling systems.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The E20651 provides optical object detection through a fibre optic diffuse reflection arrangement. The sensing principle identifies targets by detecting reflected light from the object. Its fibre configuration allows the sensing point to be placed close to machine components. This makes it useful for installations where space is limited. The sensor supports practical detection requirements in industrial automation.
Diffuse reflection provides a straightforward method for detecting objects entering the sensing area. Fibre optics provide installation flexibility and help separate the sensing location from associated equipment. The defined FT-11 configuration supports compatible system integration. Its 2 m configuration provides convenient routing. The sensor can be used for repetitive object monitoring in production environments.
The E20651 is suitable for detecting products on conveyors and components in assembly machinery. It can support presence detection, product positioning and process monitoring. Fibre optic sensing is useful in compact machine structures. The sensor can be integrated into automated control systems. It provides a practical solution for industrial optical detection.
