Model BX5M-MFR-T is a genuine Autonics photoelectric sensor (BX series, Universal AC/DC Photoelectric Sensors (Wire Terminal Type)).
Photoelectric sensors detect almost any material – cartons, bottles, film, wood or metal – at longer distances than proximity sensors, which makes them the standard sensor for conveyors, packaging machines and automatic doors.

It is the same when using the MS-4 reflector (sold separately). The sensor can detect under 0.1m.

Compatibility and replacement
Order with the full model code BX5M-MFR-T: in the Autonics code the letters and digits after the series select the size, sensing distance or resolution, the output type and the supply, so a different suffix may not fit your wiring.
Compare the old unit with the technical data above (taken from the official Autonics data sheet); if anything differs, send us a photo and we will check it.
Replacement checklist
- Reflector or receiver if the system uses one
- Supply voltage
- Sensing method (through-beam, retro-reflective, diffuse)
