    Photoelectric Sensor Has Expanded Functions

    Sept. 7, 2021
    The PD30 from Carlo Gavazzi boasts four pre-programmed special application functions.

    The PD30 Photoelectric Sensor with IO Link has expanded capabilities. This new sensor series offers functionality in a single photoelectric sensor through an array of configurations, preventative maintenance capabilities and special application.

    There are four special application functions pre-programmed into these sensors: Speed & Length, Pattern Recognition, Divider/Counter and Object & Gap Monitoring functions. Each has been developed to optimize common industry applications through design simplification, flexible configurations and ease of maintenance/troubleshooting.
