Inductive & Photoelectric Sensors

Molex Inductive and Photoelectric Sensors are robust, self-contained sensors with an integrated IO-link. These Molex sensors feature compact housing and an extensive sensing range for limited space applications and challenging environments. The inductive and photoelectric sensors are widely used in packaging machines, food/beverage, filling plants, textiles, machine tools, and logistics. The inductive sensors offer a 1mm to 40mm sensing distance range, while the photoelectric sensors offer a 1mm to 50,000mm. The target material for inductive sensors is metal, and the target material for photoelectric sensors is any light-reflecting material. The photoelectric sensors feature good color and contrast recognition, a diffuse sensor with background suppression, and UV light technology for transparent object detection. The inductive sensors come with a one-piece factor-1 steel/aluminum housing and vibration/shock resistance.
