New photoelectric design OG-Cube in metal housing with M18 thread.
 
 

 
An all-rounder despite the corners.
  • Small, compact and strong: a sensor with high optical performance.
  • Excellent quality at an attractive price.
  • Through-beam and retro-reflective sensors and diffuse reflection sensors with background suppression.
  • Easy teach mode for fast set-up.
  • Universal mounting and large selection of fixing accessories.

New design: OG-Cube
This sensor was developed for use in harsh industrial environments. The tried-and-tested technology of the well-known OG series is now integrated in a stable, rectangular metal housing.

Long ranges, small design
The photoelectric sensors are distinguished by long ranges of 4 m for retro-reflective sensors and 200 mm for diffuse reflection sensors. Together with the small housing design both features provide more flexibility for the construction of plant and machinery.

Time-savings during installation and set-up
The teach mode and the extensive range of fixing components ensure fast and cost-saving installation.

Applications
Conveying, packaging machinery, automotive and handling
