Leuze HT3C.XL/4P-M8 Diffuse Sensor
The Leuze HT3C.XL/4P-M8 Diffuse Sensor is specifically engineered for challenging detection tasks, such as identifying transparent bottles, films, and objects with openings. Based on the diffuse reflection principle with background suppression, it offers exceptional precision even when sensing low-contrast or transparent objects. The sensor features a black-white error of less than 10% up to 60 mm, ensuring accurate operation in close-range applications.
With a detection range of 5 mm to 100 mm and a divergent red LED beam, it delivers reliable results with a rectangular light spot (3 × 40 mm at 50 mm). The unit supports both light and dark switching via a PNP transistor output, with a rapid response time of 0.5 ms and a switching frequency of 1,000 Hz. Built in a compact PC-ABS plastic housing and rated IP67/IP69K, it withstands harsh industrial and washdown environments. The ECOLAB-certified materials ensure compatibility with cleaning agents, while the M8 metal connector simplifies integration into industrial systems.

Applications :-
-
Detection of Transparent Bottles
The sensor is ideal for detecting highly transparent PET bottles commonly used in beverage production lines. -
Detection of Objects with Openings
It reliably identifies irregularly shaped items or objects with cutouts that may be missed by standard sensors. -
Detection of Transparent Films
The sensor ensures accurate detection of clear films used in packaging, sealing, or labeling processes.
Precautions:
- Ensure Correct Wiring: Incorrect connections can cause sensor failure
- Avoid Overvoltage: Operating within 10-30V DC prevents damage
- Protect from Extreme Heat: Avoid installing near high-temperature sources
- Regular Cleaning: Keep the optical lens free from dust and debris for optimal performance
