Need help chhosing an infrared fiber optic photosensor

[xyzz]

I am currently looking for infrared fiber optic through-beam photosensor.
Pinpoint, something like 0.1" beam diameter.
Any suggestions, except Banner?

Take a look at Keyence FS-01 family. Easily adjustable, very stable, and extremely tough!

Try Keyance

. We have used their small beam fiber optic sensors on robotics applications and they have worked well.

The new Keyence FS-20 series kicks butt I think.

Thanks everybody.
I stopped on AB 10000 series.
Digital display, lots of parameters adjustable by pushbuttons, analog value monitor and 3 presets may be stored in memory.
And all this for very reasonable price.
