Contrinex - Resistant to washdown and process fluids
Contrinex is expanding its range of photoelectric sensors with M12M and M18M devices in metal housings. Equipped with the supplier's 'ASIC' technology and an IO-Link interface, the sensors are particularly suitable for hygiene-critical applications due to their robustness. They reinforce the 'M18P' plastic housing series and are available with the same ASIC technology in diffuse, retro-reflective, through-beam and background suppression (M18M only) versions. They offer the same detection ranges and resistance to washdown and process fluids and bring additional robustness to environments where mechanical shocks and excessive vibration are common.and excessive vibrations - thanks to robust chrome-plated brass housings (M12M) and stainless steel housings (M18M) and shatter-proof PMMA optics. IO-Link functionality is a free option for the sensors (PNP versions). They offer ranges of up to 1.2 m (diffuse sensor), 7 m (retro-reflective sensor), 30 m (through-beam sensor) and 250 mm (background suppression sensor).
