Photoelectric Sensor

Photoelectric sensors detect presence, absence or distance with a light beam, so a target is registered without contact and without wear at any cycle rate a machine can run. Conveyors count with them when parts pass too fast for a mechanical switch to follow, when a lens has clouded and detection has turned intermittent, or when a build needs a target sensed across a wide gap or through a clear guard.

 

As an authorized electrical distributor for multiple manufacturers, we stock photoelectric sensors from Baumer, Carlo Gavazzi and more across competing lines, in a range of connector types and enclosure ratings, so you can match the connector the harness already carries, compare enclosure ratings and amperage across brands, and choose a housing that survives the bay it sits in.
