A compact M18 photoelectric diffuse reflection sensor with a 3-wire output, ideal for object detection in various automation and hobby projects.
This M18 cylindrical photoelectric sensor operates on the diffuse reflection principle, meaning it detects objects by sensing the light reflected directly from their surface. It integrates both the emitter and receiver in a single unit, making installation straightforward. The sensor features a 3-wire connection (VCC, GND, Signal) and is commonly used in industrial automation, robotics, and DIY projects with microcontrollers like Arduino.
