Leuze HT3C.S/4P-200-M12 – Diffuse Sensor with Background Suppression, Series 3C
The Leuze HT3C.S/4P-200-M12 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 reducing the influence of background surfaces.
Its compact housing, adjustable sensing range, and M12 connector interface make it suitable for packaging machines, conveyor systems, pharmaceutical equipment, and general factory automation. Engineers use this sensor when stable object detection is required across different target colors and materials.
