Micropulse magnetostrictive linear transducers from Balluff-MultiSwitch are now available with integrated Profibus-DP, and automatic baud rate detection by the transducer assures trouble-free startup
The M18 photoelectrics are machined from a single piece of solid stainless steel with a 2mm thick lens resulting in a stronger and more robust photoelectric.
The sensors also come with a laser etched part number instead of wrap around stickers so users will never loose the sensor's identity.
The BOS 18E range offers the opportunity to extend the life cycle of sensors in areas where devices have previously suffered from water ingress.
Available in diffuse, retroreflective and through-beam and costing only 10% more than standard M18 photoelectrics they offer a cost effective solution to waterproofing problems.
