    Read these operating instructions carefully and follow the safety instructions! 1.2 Intended use The PY740020/21 sensor detects edges and outputs their position, distance, and center between edges. It was especially developed for easy handling, flexible use, and precise measurement. The red light laser ensures that the light beam is always visible, which makes sensor alignment easier and minimizes installation errors.
