1. Proximity Sensors Non contact sensing devices designed to detect the presence of nearby objects without physical contact. Proximity sensors provide reliable, repeatable detection across a range of targets, with flexible outputs and mounting options to fit into standard automation setups. Key benefits - Non contact operation reduces wear, maintenance, and contamination risk - Fast, repeatable detection suitable for high speed lines - Flexible output configurations for compatibility with PLCs and relays - Compact form factors for tight spaces and easy integration - Durable construction for industrial environments - Wide model range with choices of sensing technology, range, and connection options Key attributes - Function: Detect object presence without contact; available sensing technologies include inductive, capacitive, and photoelectric types depending on model - Compatibility: Outputs and interfaces designed to integrate with standard control systems; configurable for NO/NC or NPN/PNP arrangements as applicable - Size: Compact housings with various footprints to fit limited installation space - Material: Robust housing suitable for industrial use; material and sealing vary by model - Performance: Sensing ranges and response characteristics vary by model; refer to exact model specs for range, repeatability, and operating conditions Applications - Presence detection on a conveyor line to trigger sorting, counting, or packaging operations - End of travel or home position sensing in automated equipment to ensure safe, repeatable positioning - Gate, door, or access control sensing to confirm barrier position during operation Notes - Select the right model by reviewing the sensing technology, range, output type, supply voltage, mounting options, and environmental ratings in the product specifications. If exact specs are needed, refer to the corresponding model details in the product lineup.
