Photoelectric sensors are able to detect both metallic and non-metallic targets. Their main components are the emitter that sends a beam of light and the detector that detects it.

The new W10 photoelectric proximity sensor from Sick has four variants, which differ in their operating distances and mounting options. The W10 features a touchscreen interface and three ...

For example, a capacitive or photoelectric sensor might be suitable for a plastic target; an inductive sensor requires a metal target. In capacitive proximity sensors, the sensed object changes ...

Together with two photoelectric proximity sensors with background suppression, the Optical Standards achieve exceptionally reliable object detection. The W4F Narrow-beam sensor uses a ...

The range now includes ultrasonic proximity sensors and fibre optical sensors which join the photoelectric proximity sensors (through-beam, retro-reflective and diffuse), inductive proximity sensors ...
