T8 Series
Overview
- Features EZ-BEAM technology, with specially designed optics and electronics for reliable sensing without adjustment
- Ideal for presence sensing in small area previously accessible only to remote sensors and fiber optic cable
- Features T-style plastic housing with 8 mm threaded lens
- Can replace range-limited 8 mm threaded-mount inductive proximity sensors
- Offers 10 to 30V dc supply voltage with NPN or PNP output, depending on model
- Offers visible sensing beam for easy alignment
- Available in dark- or light-operate models
- Offered in opposed mode wth 2 m range and diffuse mode with 50 or 100 mm range
