The photoelectric OI Cube sensor from ifm efector is distinguished by long ranges up to 800 mm for diffuse types and up to 15 m for retro-reflective types. For diffuse-type sensors, the range can be set precisely using the multiturn potentiometer. Even under harsh industrial conditions the range remains independent of colour.
The OI is designed for position detection in conveying where high ranges are needed. As a diffuse type, the sensor operates independently of colour so that objects with different surfaces can be detected reliably without readjustment. The metallic M30-type housing is robust and, even without additional protection, the sensor withstands impacts and shocks.
A special feature is the switch point setting which uses the multiturn potentiometer and a distance scale. The turns and the scale value are linear to the distance (eg, ‘1’ = 100 mm, ‘2’ = 200 mm, etc). Before connecting the sensor, the switch point can be set and seen from the sensor scale at any time.
