Pepperl+Fuchs M18 series cylindrical photoelectric sensors

Click2Contact

Pepperl+Fuchs M18 series cylindrical photoelectric sensors are designed for functionality and can be flexibly selected depending on the application requirements. The sensor series offer five functional principles in three designs — each with a uniform interface.

The M18 sensors can be used as thru-beam photoelectric sensors, retro-reflective photoelectric sensors, retro-reflective photoelectric sensors for transparency detection and diffuse sensors with or without background suppression in almost every standard application. Due to the standardised sensor range, product selection and operation using a potentiometer are particularly simple and straightforward. This allows users quick and simple commissioning of several M18 sensors with different designs, lengths or sensing modes without having to familiarise themselves with different user interfaces.

The reduced complexity of the M18 series is said to not only allow time- and cost-saving sensor integration and commissioning, but also ensure an increase in efficiency when using multiple M18 sensors.
