together

Banner Engineering Corp has introduced its all-new 2005 sensing products catalogue, which for the first time combines all of Banner's 15,000 plus sensing products into a single comprehensive printed resource This milestone catalogue is also produced completely in full-colour for a fresh new look and the clearest presentation of sensing information and images
It's efficient content layout delivers critical sensing products and application information in just 498 pages yet includes hundreds of new items.
"Simplified L x W x H dimension drawings, products organised by voltage, accessory information on the first page of each product section, detailed specification charts and easy to follow 'more information online' icons make this the most-complete and easy-to-use Banner sensing products catalogue ever", said Christian Benson, of Banner's Sales and Marketing Department.

Organised into five sections, the new catalogue includes detailed information about photoelectric, measurement and inspection and vision sensors as well as complete listings of accessories and reference information.
