Miniature Photoelectric Sensors

By Kathleen Zipp | February 9, 2007

Share

Pepperl+Fuchs introduces the ML8 Series Photoelectric Sensors. The tamper-proof construction of these miniature sensors (31 mm x 11 mm x 23 mm) restricts unauthorized users from setting adjustments. They have high ambient light immunity (40 klux) and sense to 2.5 m, making them ideal for conveyor applications, and especially “over-sidewall” sensing.

High intensity LEDs indicate sensor output status and are visible from the front and rear of the sensor.  Available sensing modes include diffused and polarized retro-reflective.

Slotted mounting holes allow for versatile mounting, and a visible red LED transmitter makes alignment easier.  These sensors are available with integral M8 or pig-tailed M12 connectors.
