Photoelectric Cubic sensors PS Series

Datasensing PS Series

The PS Series delivers a broad lineup of miniature photoelectric sensors engineered for applications where size matters, yet reliable detection performance is required. With models covering diffuse, retro-reflective and through-beam optical modes — all in an ultra-compact cubic housing — this series provides flexible installation, high sensing distances for size, and rugged industrial durability.

Design & Functionality

• The series uses an extremely compact cubic housing (approx. 15 × 54.5 × 26 mm) which allows mounting in tight machine-spaces, compact conveyor sideframes or pick-and-place equipment. 
• Optical variants include: Diffuse-reflection (nominal distances ~100 mm on targeted white surface) Retro-reflective up to ~3 m on reflector sheet and a broad range of models for versatile detection tasks.
• A sensitivity-adjustment trimmer is built in, enabling fine-tuning of the detection threshold to match target size and background conditions. 
• Selectable logic includes NPN or PNP output, Light-On or Dark-On mode — enabling flexible control interface integration. 
• Status LED (red) for output state simplifies alignment and diagnostics. 
• Protection rating of IP65, plus full electrical protections (reverse polarity, short-circuit auto-reset) ensure reliable operation in factory environments. 

Total Crossed Beams

(In this context, this implies that the sensor ensures a consistent detection path within its sensing field rather than literal crossed optical beams.)

• The PS Series ensures a steady and reliable detection zone even when mounted in compact or obstructed spaces, improving consistency in operations where mounting clearance is minimal.
• This consistent performance reduces false-negatives and improves throughput in automated lines, conveyor systems, or machine integration where space is constrained.

Beam Pitch Options

(Interpreted as selectable sensing-distance / optical variant rather than literal beam spacing.)

• Examples: a diffuse model offers ~100 mm nominal sensing distance. 
• Retro-reflective variant offers ~3 m nominal detection range. 
• These variant options allow you to select a PS model matched to your target size, mounting clearance, background reflectivity and system speed — providing design flexibility.

Intrinsic Synchronism

• The electronics and optics are fully contained within the unit — there is no need for external synchronising wiring, making installation fast and less error-prone.
• The ultra-compact dimension and ready-to-go electronics accelerate commissioning and reduce downtime.

Operational Advantages

• Miniature footprint with full versatility: The PS Series offers multiple optical modes in a very small housing, ideal where space is at a premium.
• Flexible control interface integration: With selectable logic and output modes, the sensor adapts to various PLC or automation architectures without need for extra interfaces.
• Industrial reliability in compact form: IP65 rating, LED status indication, sensitivity adjustment and robust mounting form factor ensure dependable performance.
• Applications: Perfect for conveyor object detection in compact channels, machine tool integration in tight frames, packaging line presence/absence detection, and automation systems where compact installation, versatile optic modes, and reliable detection are required.
