Industrial R5 Polarized Anti Glare Retroreflective Optical Block

The TRI-TRONICS R5 Polarized Anti-Glare Retroreflective Optical Block is a beam-break retroreflective sensing block for industrial photoelectric systems, using polarized optics to detect targets while reducing false triggers from glossy or reflective surfaces. Interchangeable with miniature rectangular TRI-TRONICS sensors and designed for 660 nm visible red LED light sources, it supports MITY-EYE, EZ-EYE, and SMARTEYE models. Commonly used on packaging machinery, conveyor systems, material handling equipment, assembly machines, and automated production lines for reliable part detection, conveyor monitoring, and product positioning; maintenance teams and system integrators rely on it for sensor replacement, automation upgrades, machine repairs, and preventive maintenance. Typical sensing range is up to 12–17 ft (sensor dependent), with mounting and housing designed for TRI-TRONICS mini sensors.
