New Contrinex Series 4050 photoelectric sensors with considerably improved background suppression are built into a 40 x 50 x 15 mm housing and excel by their long operating distance of 500 mm, with a setting range from 20 to 500 mm.
The operating distance is independent of the target color, shape or surface structure, and is set by means of a 3-turn potentiometer with position indication. The devices feature a switching frequency of 500 Hz and work with red light, which considerably simplifies their alignment.
Their outstanding optical characteristics result in a quasi-linear output function with a virtually negligible blind zone (< 1 mm at s = 300 mm).
The sensors are enclosed in a glass-fiber-reinforced PBTP housing, complying with insulation class II. They are equipped with a glass window and a connector that may be adjusted from 0 to 90°. In addition to conventional mounting methods such as mounting brackets, dovetail fastening provides an alternative option.
CONTRINEX has manufactured inductive and photoelectric proximity switches since 1972. It specializes exclusively in the development, manufacture and sales of positioning sensors for industrial use. All departments and management levels in the company’s management system are ISO 9001:2000 certified.
