The E20744 reflector is designed for compatible retro-reflective sensor systems. Its 48 × 48 format provides a compact reflective target for object detection applications. The passive reflector works with the sensor's optical signal to create a defined detection path. It is suitable for industrial automation and machine applications.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The reflector returns light emitted by a compatible retro-reflective sensor. When an object interrupts the optical path, the sensor can detect the change in reflected signal. This provides a straightforward sensing arrangement. Proper alignment between sensor and reflector is important.
The compact reflector format is useful where available machine space is limited. It can be installed at the required detection position opposite the sensor. The small footprint can support clean machine layouts. Secure mounting helps maintain alignment.
Retro-reflective sensing is commonly used for detecting products, packages and machine components. The reflector provides a passive target without requiring separate electrical wiring. This simplifies the detection side of the system. It is suitable for various automated production processes.
The reflective surface should be kept clean for reliable optical performance. Mounting should be checked periodically to prevent alignment changes. Any visible damage to the reflector should be evaluated before continued operation. Correct installation contributes to consistent sensing.
