Low Cost Photoelectric Sensors |
November 2009 Now available from Contrinex is a new generation of photoelectric proximity switches designed to provide users with a high level of performance at competitive prices. The 'Series 5050' range is built in the widely used 50mm x 50mm format and is available in diffuse, retro-reflective (reflex) and through-beam versions. Each of these configurations has a long sensing distance; diffuse 800mm, retro-reflective 4 metres and through-beam 50 meters. The DC devices have a high 1 KHz switched output frequency and can be supplied in either NPN or PNP arrangement plus AC/DC versions are available with 50Hz response and relay output. All have the option of a two-metre cable or S8 four-pin plug configuration. The lens material is PMMA plastic making the sensors suitable for use in the food and pharmaceutical industries. A diagnostic or 'excess' function can be selected with some sensor types which monitors the visible red light detected. This provides a switched output if the light level falls below a safe threshold thus alerting users to dirt build-up or any misalignment occuring while in service. It also simplifies adjustment and set-up during installation. The new Contrinex 'Series 5050' products have wide supply ranges with DC types 10-36VDC and AC/DC models 20-250VAC/20-300VDC. All are protected from short-circuit, voltage reversal and supply transient spikes to ensure long and reliable operation in harsh environments. The high specification and highly competitive price makes these Swiss-quality sensors an extremely effective solution for many types of automation applications.
