Slimline Receivers

Pantron SlimLine receivers are compact infrared sensors for the SlimLine System. Each receiver is used with a matching Pantron transmitter to form a complete sensing pair, with no external amplifier required. The receiver handles switching performance and available sensing range while maintaining a compact footprint. The integrated push-pull output can be wired as either PNP or NPN, and light or dark switching versions are available. Multiple sensing ranges are offered, and the same round and rectangular housing formats used across the SlimLine family keep mounting easy in tight installations.

Series Overview

The SR receiver family is the receiving half of Pantron’s compact transmitter-and-receiver sensing system. Used with a matching STA or STB transmitter, the receiver provides dependable object detection in a compact package without needing a separate amplifier module.

Three range classes are available: SRS for short range, SRH for medium range, and SRL for longer sensing distances. Round CLN and CLV housings support threaded or bracket mounting, while rectangular LLA models are intended for mounting on flat machine surfaces.

Highlights

  • Extremely dirt-resistant receiver design.
  • Integrated push-pull transistor output configurable as PNP or NPN.
  • High switching accuracy for repeatable sensing.
  • Light-switching and dark-switching versions available.
  • Compact housing options in round or rectangular formats.
  • Cable and plug connection versions available.
