M12 & M18 Photoelectric Sensors With IO-Link Compatibility
Description
For process and discrete control applications, metal M12 and M18 photoelectric sensors offer complete overload protection, are IP67 rated, and are available in diffuse, diffuse with adjustable background suppression, retroreflective, and through-beam models.
Select models are IO-Link compatible, providing continuous diagnostic data and easy sensor mode selection. All sensor outputs are complementary, allowing them to be used as a light-on or dark-on sensor.
The photoelectric sensors are made in the USA and are UL-listed, CE-marked, and RoHS-compliant.
