This is a diffuse photoelectric sensor from Balluff's BOS range, using a PMMA sensing surface to detect objects without a reflector at a rated operating distance of 30mm. It provides a PNP normally open output, switching at up to 800 Hz, and operates from 10 to 30 VDC. The housing is rated IP67 with an ABS body and PVC jacket, and it connects via an M8x1 three-pin male connector, making it suitable for compact panel or machine mounting using its M3 screw fixings.
