Leuze HT15/4 – Diffuse Sensor with Background Suppression, Series 15
The Leuze HT15/4 is a diffuse sensor with background suppression designed for stable object detection in industrial automation applications. Part of the Leuze Series 15 family, this sensor uses the diffuse reflection principle with background suppression to detect objects while minimizing interference from background surfaces.
Engineers commonly use this sensor in conveyor systems and packaging machinery where accurate object detection is required even with varying object colors and reflective backgrounds. The adjustable sensing range allows flexible setup for different machine layouts and product sizes.
