Product Overview

The E3S-DBN21 is engineered for reliable sensing of transparent containers where standard photoelectric detection can be unstable. It supports bottling and filling lines that require consistent bottle presence confirmation to avoid misfeeds and process interruptions. M12 connectivity and industrial construction make it suitable for high-duty beverage and packaging environments.

FAQ for E3S-DBN21

What's the sensing range?
Up to 1m for white paper. Actual range depends on target size, color, and reflectivity. Dark targets: reduced range. Adjust sensitivity for optimal detection.
Can I adjust sensitivity?
Yes, sensitivity potentiometer on sensor side. Adjust while monitoring operation LED with target at desired detection point.
What's the advantage of diffuse sensing?
No reflector needed. Sensor detects light reflected from target. Simpler installation, single-sided access. Suitable for varied target positions.
Can this detect transparent objects?
Difficult. Transparent objects reflect little light. Use through-beam or specialized transparent object sensor for reliable detection.
