Introduction Of Leuze 18b Sensor Extends Range Further

17th April 2014

Countapulse Controls reports that Leuze has expanded its already extensive line of sensors with the recent introduction of the Leuze 18B sensor series. These high performance sensors have been engineered for use in all applications involving transparent media.

Compared to its predecessor, the Leuze 18 series sensors offer even smaller dimensions in a much more robust housing. Benefits include shorter response times, higher switching frequency, improved adjustability of the switching point and a tracking function for extending the cleaning interval.

Engineered using the latest advances in sensor technology, the Leuze 18 series is able to reliably and rapidly detect fast moving, small, thin and transparent objects such as foils. The major advantage is that this can be accomplished even under extreme environmental conditions which is a game changer in industries such as food and beverage and packaging.

The visibility of the light spot and the LED display have also been improved, and this has also simplified the start-up and operation. The optics minimise light beam tolerances to the extent that mounting can be quickly performed without alignment. The electrical connection is established either via the M12 plug or the integrated cable.

Leuze sensors are available from leading sensor solutions company, Countapulse Controls.
