Photoelectric sensors detect object presence or distance in a wide range of industrial applications. They typically contain all required optics and electronics in a single unit, requiring only power to provide an output based on their specifications and object detection criteria. Photoelectric sensors can detect a wide variety of materials and have extended sensing ranges.
Photoelectric sensors and photo eyes allow non-contact detection of objects using red or infrared guided light. New IP69K sensors are rated for harsh duty (food grade/ washdown) applications.
