Balluff BOS0106 is a compact red‑LED diffuse reflective sensor with background suppression that detects small parts against varying backgrounds. It operates on 10–30 V DC and provides a PNP normally open output, making it compatible with standard PLC inputs. The sensing range is 1–30 mm, and it emits red light at 640 nm; the 2K variant uses an ABS/PMMA housing with IP67 protection and ships with a 0.2 m PUR cable terminated by an M8 3‑pin connector. This configuration makes it suitable for precision part detection on small assemblies, packaging lines, and other automation tasks where reliable detection across diverse surface colors and backgrounds is required.
