Long-Range Detector Sensor

    June 16, 2005
    TAS6000 is a long-range detection sensor for nonsafety applications.

    It features a 15-meter range, response time as fast as 24 msec, and a compact 31 32-mm cross section. It detects objects as small as 30 mm in diameter. Industry-standard M12 connectors and need of a separate controller facilitate fast, easy installation. It has npn or pnp outputs, and can switch high-current loads to 250 mA.
