Why Choose the IMO RL107 Photoelectric Sensor Reflector?
The IMO RL107 is a robust retroreflective photoelectric sensor reflector designed for use with polarised retroreflective photoelectric switches in industrial automation and machine-control applications. It provides the reflective target required for a compatible sensor to return its emitted light beam, allowing objects to be detected when they interrupt the optical path.
The RL107 is designed for polarised light photoelectric sensing and provides a practical alternative to smaller reflector formats where a larger reflective target is desirable. Its reflector design supports reliable alignment between the sensor and target, making it suitable for conveyors, production machinery, material handling equipment and other automated systems.
With an 84 mm reflector size, the RL107 provides a substantial reflective area while remaining suitable for industrial installations. It can be used as part of a non-contact sensing system for presence detection, position monitoring, counting and other machine automation functions.

Reliable Reflective Target for Photoelectric Sensors
Retroreflective photoelectric sensors operate by transmitting a light beam towards a reflector and monitoring the light returned to the sensor. When an object passes between the sensor and reflector, the returned beam is interrupted and the sensor changes its output state, providing reliable non-contact detection without requiring a separate powered receiver.
The IMO RL107 provides the reflective target required by compatible polarised retroreflective sensors. Polarisation helps the sensing system distinguish the intended reflector from reflections produced by shiny objects, making this sensing principle particularly useful for industrial object detection and automated machinery.
Typical Applications
- Industrial conveyor object detection.
- Packaging and production machinery.
- Material handling and positioning systems.
- Automated manufacturing equipment.
- Presence, counting and position monitoring.
