OEM Prism 18 mm tubular photoelectric sensors

Built sensor tough

Eaton's OEM Prism series, 18 mm tubular, high-performance sensors are packaged for high-volume use. They feature dual or single discrete outputs for simple wiring in place of the isolated output found in standard models. Forward and right-angle viewing models feature identical gain and optical characteristics for better fit, and gain control allows for quick adjustment for peak optimal performance.
