Gravity Infrared Proximity Sensor

The Gravity Infrared Proximity Switch is a sophisticated module that uses infrared radiation to detect the presence of an object at a distance of 10±5 mm to 80±20 mm. With a fast response time and strong anti-interference capabilities, this sensor is ideal for a variety of applications. It is small and easy to install, which makes it especially versatile. Additionally, the sensor is housed in a housing with mounting holes, which simplifies installation and makes it waterproof when used in water-intensive environments.
