This proximity sensor detects objects within 10±5mm to 80±20mm by measuring reflected infrared energy. It outputs high/low, with strong anti-interference, quick response, and small size—easily embedded in devices like automatic hand washers, smart taps/toilets/restrooms, and proximity switches. It has a housing with mounting holes for waterproofing in water-contact scenarios.
