These switches use DC input voltage and produce PNP or NPN signal output. They're often used with programmable logic controllers (PLCs).

Easily mount these flat switches to a base or rail.

The flexible cable on these switches withstands applications that require frequent motion, such as robotics.

Use these switches to sense metallic objects in environments containing flammable gases and combustible dust. ATEX and IECEx certified to protect against explosion, they produce a low-current, low-voltage NAMUR signal, so they won’t ignite or create sparks.

Turn the face on these switches to sense metallic objects from the front, sides, top, or bottom.

These inductive proximity switches sense metallic objects each time they pass through the slot, even when they’re obscured by water, oil, dirt, or a surface finish. Use them to measure the speed of rotating equipment and to count or detect moving objects, such as sheet metal being fed into a stamping process.

Check the position of your torch or workpiece for accuracy during robotic welding.

Sense objects as they pass through the switch’s ring via tubing or a funnel. These switches are often used to monitor blockages, detect breaks in spooling wire, or count small metallic parts, such as screws, during the stamping process.

These switches have a longer sensing distance compared to other proximity switches with the same diameter.

Rotate the face on these switches five different directions for easy installation and positioning—they work with both AC and DC inputs.

Switches accept both AC and DC input voltage.

Detect the presence or absence of an object moving at high speeds with a light beam. These switches have a longer sensing distance than proximity and ultrasonic switches.

These switches have a receiver built into the housing, eliminating the need to align components and measure sensing distance during installation.

Detect objects as thin as a freshly sharpened pencil tip. These switches are best for tight spaces because they have a smaller light beam and can detect smaller objects than standard photoelectric switches.

The highly flexible fiber-optic cable and small sensing end help you position these switches in hard to reach areas.

Detect irregularly shaped items with a band of light up to 10 times larger than the beam on a standard photoelectric switch.

Spanning up to 230 ft.—roughly the length of a commercial airplane—these safety barrier switches cut power to large machinery to prevent damage or injury.

These switches detect magnetic objects—or objects with a magnet attached—through non-magnetic walls.

These switches use a NAMUR signal to operate at a low current and voltage, so they won’t ignite or produce sparks. ATEX certified, they protect against explosion in environments containing flammable gases and combustible dust. Switches sense both metallic and nonmetallic objects.

Detect objects and liquid or material levels to set off actions in your system—regardless of size, shape, or surface finish.

Monitor the color of products as they pass by on your line. These transmitters don’t just detect if color is in mint condition—they also turn equipment on or off, all with a single device.

Detect when oil rises on water, foam forms on beer, and tanks empty, triggering pumps and valves in food and sanitary lines. These switches are 3-A and European Hygienic Engineering and Design Group (EHEDG) certified since they’re easy to keep clean.
