Leuze HT3C.S/4P – Diffuse Sensor with Background Suppression, Series 3C
The Leuze HT3C.S/4P is a diffuse sensor with background suppression designed for reliable object detection at short sensing distances. Part of the Leuze Series 3C family, this sensor uses the diffuse reflection principle with background suppression to detect objects while minimizing interference from background surfaces.
The sensor offers an adjustable sensing range from 15 mm to 200 mm and provides stable detection performance across different object colors. Engineers commonly use this sensor in packaging machinery, conveyor systems, pharmaceutical equipment, and automation applications where compact dimensions and precise object detection are required.
