The Autonics BX3M-PFR belongs to the BX series – Universal AC/DC Photoelectric Sensors (Wire Terminal Type).
On a production line a failed photoelectric sensor stops the conveyor or the machine cycle, so maintenance teams keep the exact model in stock; replacing like for like keeps the sensing mode, range and wiring unchanged.

Compatibility and replacement
Order with the full model code BX3M-PFR: 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.
If the label of the old unit is worn or the model is discontinued, send us a photo and we will confirm the current Autonics equivalent before quoting.
Replacement checklist
- Supply voltage
- Connection type and cable length
- Reflector or receiver if the system uses one
