Detailed introduction of the P+F Beijiafu R100 series photoelectric sensor from Germany

1、 Core features of R100 series

1. Background suppression (BGS) technology

• Only detect objects within the set distance, ignoring background interference (such as conveyor belts, shelves, etc.).

2. Long distance detection

• Detection range100mm~8000mm (8 meters)Adapt to different application requirements.

3. High precision adjustment

• throughKnob or teaching keyEasily set detection distance and sensitivity.

4. Multiple light sources to choose from

• Red light (RT)Visible light, easy to debug (650nm).

• Infrared light (IR)Stronger resistance to environmental light interference (880nm).

5. sturdy and durable

• Metal casing, protection levelIP67/IP69KSuitable for harsh industrial environments.

2、 Naming convention for R100 series models

ToR100-1-8000-RT/4For example:

• R100Series name (background suppression diffuse reflectance photoelectric sensor).

• 1Detection mode (1=background suppression BGS).

• 8000Maximum detection distance (8000mm=8m).

• RTLight source type (RT=red light, IR=infrared light).

• /4Output type (4=PNP normally open, 3=NPN normally open, 5=NPN normally closed, 6=PNP normally closed).

3、 Main models and technical parameters

4、 Comparison between R100 series and other photoelectric sensors

5、 Typical application scenarios

1. Logistics sorting system

• Accurately detect packages to avoid false detection of conveyor belts or shelf backgrounds (such as R100-1-3000-IR/4).

2. AGV/AMR obstacle avoidance

• Detect obstacles and set a safe distance (such as R100-1-5000-IR/6).

3. packaging production line

• Detect stacked boxes to avoid missed or false detections (such as R100-1-1000-RT/3).

4. automobile manufacturing

• Vehicle positioning to ensure robot grasping accuracy (such as R100-1-8000-RT/5).

6、 Selection Guide

1. Detecting distance requirements

• Short distance (within 1m): R100-1-1000-RT/3

• Medium to long distance (3~5m): R100-1-3000-IR/4

• Ultra long distance (8m): R100-1-8000-RT/5

2. Light source selection

• Red light (RT)Suitable for debugging scenarios with high visibility requirements.

• Infrared (IR)Stronger resistance to environmental light interference, suitable for outdoor or strong light environments.

3. output signal

• NPN（/3、/5）Japanese PLCs (Mitsubishi, Omron).

• PNP（/4、/6）European PLC (Siemens, Beifu).

4. Protection level

• Cleaning environment selectionIP69K(such as R100-1-8000-RT/5).

7、 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Can the R100 series detect transparent objects?

→Okay, but sensitivity needs to be adjustedInfrared (IR) models are more suitable for transparent/reflective objects.

Q2: Is the maximum detection distance of R100-1-3000-IR/4 adjustable?

→canSet the effective detection range (such as only detecting objects within 1m~2m) through the knob or teaching key.

Q3: Can the R100 series work stably under strong light?

→Infrared (IR) models have stronger anti-interference capabilitiesRed light (RT) models may be affected by sunlight.

Q4: Can R100 replace the reflective sensor?

→Some scenes can beHowever, the GL series is more suitable for ultra long distances (>10m) or high anti-interference requirements.
