Abstract
A housing of a photoelectric sensor has a front surface having a light projecting/receiving surface, a rear surface, a top surface adjacent to the front surface and extending in a direction orthogonal to the front surface and the rear surface, and an inclined surface inclined with respect to and connecting the top surface and the rear surface. On the top surface, a teach button that receives an input operation from outside to set a threshold value and an indicator that displays a detection result of the object being detected are provided in order from the side of the inclined surface. On the inclined surface, an adjustment button that receives an input operation from outside to finely adjust the threshold value is provided. A distance between the teach button and the adjustment button is larger than a distance between the teach button and the indicator.
