PHOTOELECTRIC SENSORS
Panasonic has some of the industry's smallest photoelectric sensors with
unmatched simplicity and versatility. Our sensors have advanced features which
include background/foreground suppression to protect against unwanted detection.
Background Suppression
For instances where the background may affect
sensing performance, or cause false detections,
utilize a background suppression sensor to
achieve an accurate detection.

BGS Functionality
The sensor judges that an object is present
when light is received at position A of the light-
receiving element (2-segment element).

z
P
This is useful if the object and background are
far apart. The distance adjustment is the same
as the conventional adjustment method for
adjustable range reflective sensors.
