Sunnyvale, CA – The new, heavy-duty SA1U photoelectric sensors from IDEC are offered in four sensing modes: through-beam, background suppression, diffuse and polarized retro-reflective. Long distance sensing ranges as far as 50 meters with through-beam models and as close as 1 meter with diffuse models also support 12-240V DC and 24-240V AC.
SA1U sensors utilize a spring up screw terminal. You can use almost any conductor without any need for special cables (M8 or M12). Assembled in a fully automated robotic process, these sensors are UL/c-UL listed, CE marked and IP67 rated, making them ideal for use in wet environments such as bottling and food processing industries, as well as for direct sunlight applications.
You can even configure the sensor for your specific needs using built-in 3-amp relay contacts (NO/NC) and time delay functions. There are four timing delay functions to choose from: one shot, ON delay, OFF delay and normal mode, as well as a 0.1 to 5 second time range.
