Universal Reflex Sensors

These sensors are equipped for use with Glass Fiber Optic Cables. They can be used with or without a Glass Fiber Optic Cable. Reflex and through beam operations are both possible. In the reflex mode the Universal Reflex Sensors evaluate the light reflected by the object. If the object passes within the selected range, the output is switched. Bright objects reflect light better than dark objects, and can thus be recognized from greater distances. In the through beam operation the color of the object has no influence on the detection range. The use of a Glass Fiber Optic Cable is especially advantageous when difficult to access locations and in high temperature zones of up to 300 °C, as well as in applications with limited space availability.
