A laser distance sensor which produces an analogue voltage output proportional to the distance between the object and the sensor face. This sensor also provides an additional switching output allowing it to be used as a normal diffuse sensor with background suppression. Housed in a rugged metal housing with scratch resistant glass optics. Reverse polarity and short circuit protected.
