Leuze HT15/2X-M12 – Diffuse Sensor with Background Suppression, Series 15
The Leuze HT15/2X-M12 is a diffuse sensor with background suppression designed for stable object detection even when background surfaces are present behind the target. Part of the Leuze Series 15 family, this sensor uses the diffuse reflection principle with background suppression to detect objects while minimizing unwanted background reflections.
Engineers commonly use this sensor in conveyor systems and industrial machinery where object color variations and background reflections can affect standard diffuse sensors. The adjustable sensing range allows flexible setup for different product sizes and installation distances.
