The Cubic Series 3031 is a miniature diffuse photoelectric sensor with background suppression, using a visible red light spot for alignment and a PSD receiver for accurate distance control. It operates on 10-36 VDC with a maximum switching frequency of 1000 Hz and an adjustable detection range up to 600 mm. The sensor has an IP 65 protection rating, is fully potted in polyurethane, and features a glass window for durability and cleanability. Sensitivity is finely tuned via a 12-turn potentiometer, and output operation is inhibited during power-on to prevent false triggers. Output current is rated at 200 mA max with a voltage drop of 2.0 V max. The housing, made of glass-fiber reinforced PBTP, includes two M4 mounting holes and is sealed by ultrasonic welding. A green LED indicates excess gain; the no-load current is 15 mA typ. Standard connections are a 2 m PVC cable or S8 connector.
