Product Spotlight: Right-Angle Photoelectric Sensors
The M18 photoelectric sensor, with a right-angle prism, is designed to flush mount onto a conveyor to look across the belt or rollers.
The sensors
produce high-intensity, pulsed, visible
red (660-nm) light for high immunity
from interference from other
bright lights. A fourth-wire output
alerts the control system if there is
dirt buildup during operation so
any deposits can be removed before
object
detection
becomes critical.
Housed in
a M18 metal
housing,
the sensors
feature high
shock resistance,
10 to
30-Vdc voltage
range,
overload protection,
and are short-circuit and inverse-polarity
proof. The units are also stable from
–25 to 55°C and can switch output
current of 200 mA.
