A photoelectric sensor in an IP69K rated stainless steel housing can survive the tough applications in harsh environments. That’s the intent of Balluff’s new R01E stainless steel flatpack photoelectric sensor. With a polyamide (PA) optical surface and targeting harsh duty including wash-down applications, the sensors are offered in diffuse versions with ranges up to 100 mm, polarized retroreflective versions with ranges up to one meter and as through beam sensors with ranges up to 2.2 meters. Connections are made by cable or M8 three-pin quick disconnect and have PNP, NPN, NO and NC outputs.
