Added value for the standard sensor
BOS 18M PHOTOELECTRIC
SENSOR WITH IO-LINK
Factory automation requires reliable and precise detection of Features
objects in various applications with photoelectrics. Balluff has
incorporated IO-Link functionality of remote teaching, diagnostics, ■ ■ Convenient configuration via IO-Link and teach-in
and parametrization into the widely used 18 mm tubular housing. ■ ■ Easy alignment thanks to bright light spot
IO-Link functionality includes multiple switching modes for reliable ■ ■ Active monitoring of the emitter LED
detection and multiple teaching options for easier integration and ■ ■ Extensive configuration options
better stability.
The added diagnostics provide faster troubleshooting which
translates into more up time and productivity. Sensing modes
include diffuse, retroreflective and through-beam. These sensors
incorporate a bright red light for easy alignment. In addition, the
sensors can be taught with the integral pushbutton enabling quick
and easy integration.
Applications: part presence, general automation, error proofing,
and assembly.
Industries: automotive, material handling, machine tool, packaging,
and assembly robotics.
