Microsonic has added the Nano to its compact class of ultrasonic sensors. The M12 ultrasonic sensor with switching output has an overall length of 55 mm including connector. It offers two scanning ranges - 250 and 350 mm - and is available with analog or switching output. With their blind zone of 20 mm, the M12 ultrasonic sensors are an alternative to inductive and capacitive sensors, especially when large switching distances with high reproducibility are required. The variants with analog output are available with 0 to 10 V voltage output and 4 to 20 mA current output. The analog sensors have a housing length of 60 mm.
