Baumer 10152086 Photoelectric Sensor Background Suppression

Product Description

The BAUMER 10152086 is a compact photoelectric proximity sensor featuring background suppression technology, designed for precise object detection in industrial automation environments. It uses a pulsed red LED light source at 660 nm with a sensing distance range of 10 to 60 mm and a response time of less than 0.5 ms. The sensor includes both light-on and dark-on operating modes along with a teach-in function for fast, tool-free sensing distance adjustment. Typical installers include industrial automation technicians and controls engineers integrating it into machine vision, conveyor, or production line systems.

This sensor is suited for a wide range of industrial applications where reliable short-range object detection is required. Its background suppression capability allows accurate detection even when targets are positioned in front of varying backgrounds. The compact rectangular housing measures 8 mm in width, 16.2 mm in length, and 10.8 mm in depth, making it well suited for tight mounting locations on machinery, fixtures, and automated assembly equipment. The IP65 protection class makes it appropriate for light wash-down or dust-present environments.

Key Features

• Pulsed red LED light source at 660 nm wavelength with sensing range of 10 to 60 mm
• Response time under 0.5 ms for high-speed detection applications
• Teach-in function enables fast sensing distance adjustment without tools
• LED indicators for alignment, soiled lens detection, and output status
• Short circuit and reverse polarity protection for extended service life
• IP65-rated plastic housing in a compact rectangular form factor

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-replacement or new-installation photoelectric sensor for industrial automation systems requiring short-range background suppression detection with a 10 to 30 VDC supply.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by qualified industrial automation or controls technicians. De-energize the machine or panel circuit before wiring the sensor. Connect using the included M8 4-pin flylead connector and verify polarity before applying power. Confirm sensing distance adjustment via the teach-in function after mounting to ensure reliable detection in the target application.
