Cylindrical, cost-effective photoelectric sensors
|
|
Fully automated production enables us to offer these high quality sensors at an extremely attractive price. Sensors of the M18 Series are available as thru-beam sensors, retroreflective sensors (with and without polarizing filter) or diffuse reflective sensors. These four sensor variants, plus a selection of reflectors, holders and cables provide solutions for almost all optical sensor applications. In the most simple case, cylindrical sensors require a simple drilled hole for mounting. Combined with an appropriate connector, installation is a matter of minutes, which is also a great advantage for service work. Characteristics: - Metal or plastic package
- Cable or connector (M12)
- Thru-beam, retroreflective with or without polarizing filter and diffuse reflective type available
- Sensitivity adjuster for polarized retroreflective and diffuse reflective types
- Test input for thru-beam sensors
- Light ON/dark ON freely selectable
Accessories: - Reflectors
- Various mounting brackets
- Cables with M12 connectors
