Portfolio for hygiene-sensitive production processes
Two new stainless steel series in miniature housings - series '53C' and '55C' - from Leuze are suitable for detection tasks in production and packaging processes.
Series 53C in hygienic design and 55C in wash-down design have been specially developed for applications with increased hygiene requirements. The housings of both series from Leuze are made of stainless steel V4A (AISI 316L). The smooth stainless steel surfaces (typical value ≤0.8 Ra) ensure that cleaning agents drip off directly and bacterial carry-over into production facilities is prevented. Both the glass-free optics cover and the operating elements have been designed to be absolutely leak-proof and gap-free. All housing materials are FDA-compliant and approved for direct contact with food. Both series offer the functional principles of throughbeam photoelectric sensors, retro-reflective photoelectric sensors and diffuse sensors for specific applications and tasks. They offer protection class IP69K as well as thermal and chemical resistance (tested and certified according to ECOLAB, CleanProof+, JohnsonDiversey).
