Autonics Photoelectric Sensor BJR Series

The Photoelectric Sensor for Industrial automation

The Autonics BJR series oil-resistant/oil-proof photoelectric sensors are optimized for use in various environments with cutting oil and lubricants such as automotive and machine tool industries. The sensors are capable of long distance detection up to 15 m (through-beam type). Various features including MSR (Mirror Surface Rejection) function and mutual interference prevention functions allow stable and error-free operation. The screw mounting hole is made of metallic nuts, allowing easy installation using M3 bolts and offering easy maintenance even when exposed to various oils.

Main Features

• For use in oil environments such as cutting oil or lubricants (optimized for automotive and machine tool industries)

Optimized for Automotive and Machine Tool Industries

The BJR series oil-resistant/oil-proof which is one of the photoelectric sensors series from Autonics company, is optimized for use in various environments with cutting oil and lubricants such as automotive and machine tool industries.

BJR Series Oil-Resistance/Oil-Proof Test Results

The product has passed oil resistance tests for IP67G and IP67F protection rating (JEM standard). Oil-resistance may be affected by certain types of oil. Refer to the following table when considering oil types.

Various Connection Types Available

The BJR series is available in connector type, cable type, and cable connector types, allowing easy application in various user environments.

Long Sensing Distance Up to 15 m

Through-beam type models feature long sensing distances up to 15 m.

M.S.R (Mirror Surface Rejection) Function (Retroreflective Type)

The retroreflective type models feature MSR (Mirror Surface Rejection) function which allow the units to only receive light from specific mirrors (MS-2S). This function allows stable detection of highly reflective targets including metals, mirrors, etc.

Mutual Interference Prevention Function (Except Through-Beam Types)

The emitter cycles can be configured so that the sensors will not be affected by other nearby sensors. This allows adjacent installation of multiple sensors.

Excellent Noise Immunity and Minimal Influence from Ambient Light

The sensors feature noise reduction algorithm and digital filters, offering excellent noise immunity and minimal influence from ambient light.

IP67 Protection Structure (IEC Standard), IP67G/IP67F Protection Structure (JEM Standard)

IP67 protection structure allows stable and error-free operation even in wet or dusty environments.

IP67G/IP67F protection structure allows stable and error-free operation even in oily environments.
