Heavy-duty, photoelectric sensors make it easy to work under harsh conditions, now with new DC model!
For Immediate Release
Sunnyvale, CA, December 16, 2008– When your application requires a sensor with reliable long distance sensing in an unforgiving environment, look no further than the new heavy-duty SA1U photoelectric sensors from IDEC, now available with a new 12-24V DC model!
These high-quality photoelectric sensors are offered in four sensing modes: through-beam, background suppression, diffuse and polarized retro-reflective. Long distance sensing ranges function as far as 50 meters.
SA1U sensors utilize a spring up screw terminal making wiring a breeze. You can use almost any conductor without any need for special cables (M8 or M12). Assembled in a fully-automated robotic process, these sensors are UL/c-UL listed, CE marked and IP67 rated, making them ideal for use in wet environments such as bottling and food processing industries, as well as for direct sunlight applications.
You can even configure the sensor for your specific needs using built-in 3-amp relay contacts (NO/NC) and time delay functions. There are four timing delay functions to choose from: one shot, ON delay, OFF delay and normal mode, as well as a 0.1 to 5 second time range.
