The IFM E20005 is a high-quality round reflector engineered for reliable performance in conjunction with red light and infrared retro-reflective sensors. With its durable design, optimised dimensions, and lightweight construction, it provides a dependable and efficient solution for enhancing the detection capabilities of optical sensing systems in industrial automation.

Specifically designed for retro-reflective sensing applications, the E20005 enables accurate detection of objects by reflecting the emitted light from a sensor back to its receiver. Its compatibility with both red light and infrared light retro-reflective sensors ensures flexibility across a wide range of applications, including packaging machinery, material handling, conveyor systems, and assembly lines. By providing a strong, consistent reflective surface, the E20005 helps sensors maintain reliable performance, even over longer sensing distances.

The reflector is built with durable plastic materials, offering a balance of lightweight handling and resistance to environmental influences. At just 30.9 g, it is easy to mount without placing undue stress on equipment. Its diameter of 84 mm and reflective surface of 80 mm provide ample area for accurate light return, ensuring stable signal quality and minimising detection errors. With a thickness of only 7.7 mm, the reflector maintains a slim profile, making it easy to install in confined spaces without disrupting equipment layouts.

Engineered for industrial environments, the E20005 is capable of operating reliably in ambient temperatures from -10…60 °C. This range makes it suitable for typical factory and warehouse conditions, ensuring long-term stability and consistent performance in everyday applications. Its robust design allows it to withstand routine mechanical stress and environmental variations commonly found in industrial automation.

Each E20005 reflector is supplied as a single piece (pack quantity: 1), making it straightforward to purchase and replace as needed. This packaging format supports easy maintenance and ensures that spare reflectors are readily available for system upkeep.

The IFM E20005 is particularly valuable in applications where high precision and reliable object detection are critical. When used with compatible retro-reflective sensors, it helps improve system accuracy, reduce false triggers, and increase overall process reliability.

In summary, the IFM E20005 provides reliable reflection, durable construction, and ease of installation in a lightweight, compact form. With its compatibility for both red light and infrared retro-reflective sensors, wide operating temperature range, and industrial-grade plastic build, it is an excellent accessory for enhancing sensor performance in industrial automation systems.
