Laser sensor stands up to shock

Aug. 4, 2008
The M12 laser sensor, featuring a body length of just 50 mm and an operating range of 50 m, is suited for hostile environments that prohibit the use of photoelectric and fiber optic sensors and where even inductive devices can fail

The M12 laser sensor, featuring a body length of just 50 mm and an operating range of 50 m, is suited for hostile environments that prohibit the use of photoelectric and fiber optic sensors and where even inductive devices can fail. Protected to IP67, immune to interference from other light sources, resistant to high shock levels, and protected against electromagnetic radiation, these stainless steel sensors work in tough applications where it’s necessary to verify the correct assembly of key components. Sensors feature an operating supply voltage from 10 to 30 Vdc, 5 kHz switched output frequency, and current rating of 200 mA.
