2-Pack Infrared Break Beam Sensor With 5mm LEDs Counting Module Split Through Beam Photoelectric Switch For 1M Detection Distance Compatible With PLC Relay K60 STM32 And 51 Microcontroller Boards

Two Pack Infrared Break Beam Sensor with 1m Range
✔️ Includes 2 ready-to-wire emitter/receiver units; 30cm cables

These two wired infrared break beam sensors use a split-beam photoelectric design to detect interruptions along a 1 m path. They’re ideal for counting, zone monitoring, and simple security checks in PLCs and microcontroller projects.

✅ 1 m detection distance with <5° emission angle
✅ DC 5V operation; emitter 20 mA, receiver 10 mA
✅ NPN normally open output, can drive relays up to 70 mA
✅ Indoor use, -10°C to 60°C, 50,000 hours life
✅ 2 units in the pack; pre-assembled emitter and receiver with 30 cm wires
✅ Simple wiring: red to +5V, black to GND, yellow/white to signal; 1 kΩ pull-up required

💡 What is an infrared break beam sensor and how is it used in automation?

This handy device helps you detect item presence and count items along a fixed beam for automation systems.

- It is a simple, handy way to count items on a production line - It works with 5V logic and NPN output - It interfaces easily with PLCs and microcontrollers like STM32, K60, 51 series, and Arduino
