Sealed vision sensor

The PresencePLUS P4 Sealed OMN vision sensor has a compact, yet durable nickel-plated aluminum housing that lets the sensor withstand demanding washdown conditions, while the use of an integrated ring light or lens cover lets the device bear up against the dust and debris commonly found in harsh-duty environments. The IP68-rated sensor performs reliable, repeatable quality inspections in applications including assembly, pharmaceutical, and packaging. The device can detect flaws, verify assemblies, inspect drilled holes, and read 1D and 2D bar codes, among other tasks.

Compact, non-contact linear position sensor

The Temposonics MS non-contact linearposition sensor is just 1.44-in. long. The small size lets the device fit into tight spaces. Rated for up to 100 g of shock and 15 g of vibration, the sensor withstands harsh environments. It features 100 V/m EMI protection and provides a 1.97 to 78.7-in. measuring range.

Dual cylinderposition sensor

The BIM-UNT sensor is for detecting long and short strokes in cylinders for stamping, sorting, conveying, and other material-handling applications. The sensor combines two high-accuracy sensors using a single cable connection. This cuts wire costs and also reduces the number of connection points to expedite installation. The dual sensor delivers excellent sensitivity and is especially useful for detecting both the home and end positions of a piston during longer stroke cycles. The sensor’s low profile suits it for applications with minimal clearance for cylinders. The unit’s single-cable design facilitates the installation of multiple cylinders. The BIM-UNT can be used with a variety of mounting brackets and cable connections.
