High resolution is realized by triple crossing of light
beams.
Automatic sensitivity control ensures steady and op-
timum light power. Even when sensors are operated
in dirty environment or at highest distances, no ad-
justment is necessary. Sensitivity control ensures
that the high resolution is maintained at small dis-
tances close to "zero".
