Photoelectric Sensor

Banner Engineering Corporation has introduced a new version of its TM18 EZ-Beam compact Photoelectric Sensor for use in heavy-duty environments. The TM18 offers nickel-plated, die-cast zinc metal housing, as well as completely epoxy encapsulated electronics. Rated IP69K, the TM18 provides superior durability and resistance in harsh sensing environments, especially in high pressure washdown applications. Featuring a compact, right angle shape, an 18mm threaded barrel mount and integral all metal M12 quick disconnect, the TM18 sensor has the ability to fit in tight places and avoid sensor damage during machine assembly, transport, maintenance and operation. Featuring visible red emitter LED models – available in opposed, polarized retro-reflective, diffuse and fixed-field (background suppression) modes – the TM18 sensor easily aligns to the desired target. This makes the photoelectric sensor ideal for providing reliable sensing on conveyors in heavy-duty machine settings, automotive machining and production equipment, off-road and outdoor equipment, or in high traffic area where the sensor could be bumped or stepped on. Similar to the previous models, the TM18 provides a single-turn potentiometer on the diffuse model, while no adjustment is necessary on the polarized retro, opposed mode and fixed field background suppression models. Models with 4-wire complementary NPN or PNP, or 3-wire I/O block compatible outputs are available. The company is a world leading manufacturer of photoelectric and ultrasonic sensors, indicator lights, vision sensors and vision lighting, electronic machine guarding systems, wireless networks, fibre optic assemblies and precision measurement systems.
