Additional information

Flexible Rotatable Sensing Head: The active sensing face can be indexed into 5 distinct positions without tools, allowing mounting adaptation for side, front, or top sensing orientations.20 mm Sensing Range: Offers an extended 20 mm sensing distance ($S_n$) with flush mounting support to reduce mechanical damage risks from passing equipment.PNP Complementary Output: Configured with both Normally Open (NO) and Normally Closed (NC) switching outputs via an integrated 4-pin M12 connector.High-Visibility Status LEDs: Dual corner-mounted LEDs (green for power/operation, yellow for switching state) provide 360-degree visual feedback regardless of the sensor's mounting orientation.Robust Enclosure: Housed in durable polyamide (PA) with IP67 ingress protection, providing protection against mechanical vibration, dust ingress, and liquid splash. Primary Industrial Applications Extensively used in bulk material handling, automated conveyor systems, packaging machinery, chemical skid processing, and grain elevators operating under ATEX Zone 22 or Zone 2 safety requirements.
