Leuze HT 3C Compact Optical Sensor
Precise detection with powerful background suppression.
The HT 3C diffuse sensors deliver reliable object detection with powerful
background suppression. The scanning range can be adjusted remotely directly from the PLC, ensuring flexible and efficient setup. The HT 3C ensures stable performance and reliable detection across a wide range of industrial applications.
Advantages
- Remote scanning range adjustment directly via PLC
- Extensive diagnostics such as contamination information via IO-Link
- Highly accurate device calibration with numerical range adjustment via IO-Link
- Reflection-independent scanning behavior thanks to nearly perfect black-white differentiation
- Very high reproducibility when changing formats, objects, or replacing parts
- Two independent switching outputs for applications with multiple scanning points
Leuze 46C Series Photoelectric Sensor
A Family with the Best Genes
With their high function reserves the large operating ranges of up to 150m, these
sensors are ideally suited for use in conveyor systems, in the wood-processing industry and in special-purpose machinery manufacture.
The highly visible, brightvision® light spot, an even more readable status LED and the reliable detection of stretch-wrapped objects reduce life-cycle costs in many applications of conveyor and storage systems.

Leuze LBK Safety Radar System
Reliable area monitoring in harsh environments!
The world's first safe 3D radar system,
LBK from Inxpect S.p.A., was developed for the monitoring of hazardous areas in harsh industrial environments. It detects the bodies of persons and in doing so monitors the protected area for access and presence. Using the controllers, up to 6 sensors can be combined in one application.
Advantages
- Reliable operation, even under harsh ambient conditions with, e.g., dirt, dust, smoke, and light
- Flexible adaptation of the protected area to the application: by means of the number and position of the sensors as well as adjustable operating range and selectable opening angle
- Static objects in the protective field are permissible and do not result in shutdown of the safety outputs
- Fast installation through simple system design
- PROFIsafe controller with detailed output of the system status
- If desired, configuration and setup service for your application by our certified experts
Leuze DRT25C: The one for everything!
Reliable detection without readjustment when changing objects.
The dynamic reference diffuse sensor with innovative CAT technology reliably detects any objects independent of shape or surface: flat, with openings, glossy or transparent.
Benefits
- Reliable detection of any object (flat, with openings, glossy, transparent) prevents downtime and increases machine throughput
- No readjustment necessary when changing format or object. Increases the production volume
- Easy and fast teaching of the sensor using the teach button, whereby the belt is used as a reference
- Reliable operation even with vibrations or contamination of the conveyor belt
- Additional functions such as warning output or disabling of the teach button via IO-Link
Leuze LS 25C High Power Throughbeam Photoelectric Sensors
Throughbeam photoelectric sensors always consist of a sensor and receiver. With ranges up to 150 m (800 m for object radiation). Cubic and cylindrical designs.
The Leuze LS25C is a high-power throughbeam photoelectric sensor designed for
applications in factory automation, packaging, and materials technology. Here are some key features:
-
Transillumination Capability: The LS25C can transilluminate various types of packaging films, even dark, metalized ones. It reliably detects objects inside the film, making it useful for product separation and film sealing.
-
Adjustable Power: Both the transmitter power and receiver sensitivity can be adjusted via potentiometers. This flexibility allows customization based on specific requirements.
-
Robust Housing: The sensor’s housing has IP67 and IP69K protection ratings, making it suitable for harsh environments where frequent cleaning is necessary.
-
Eye-Safe Infrared Light: The infrared light used by the LS25C is powerful enough for transillumination but completely harmless to the eyes.
Whether detecting transparent films or transilluminating dark ones, the LS25C offers a wide range of capabilities for various packaging scenarios.
