New Opti-Vue Photoelectric Sensors from Pepperl+Fuchs Offer Exceptional Performance at a Great Price

TWINSBURG, OH - Pepperl+Fuchs introduces the economical Series 31 Opti-Vue Photoelectric Sensors. With a compact 35mm x 62mm footprint, these versatile sensors are Pepperl+Fuchs' smallest photoelectric sensor line offering a built-in SPDT relay with AC/DC models, and 4-in-1(TM) output with DC models. An integrated SPDT relay eliminates the need for a separately mounted and wired relay, and 4-in-1 technology allows a single sensor to operate with four different output configurations, automatically selected by the sensor based on the connected load.

The Opti-Vue is packed with many outstanding features common to larger, more expensive sensors, including highly visible front status LEDs, ambient light immunity, and a rugged IP67 rated housing. Additional features such as potentiometer adjustment and universal mounting provide easy set up and adjustment. Color-coded labels on the front of the housing allow for immediate identification of the sensing mode. Diffuse, retro-reflective, polarized retro-reflective, and thru-beam models are available, each with a choice of a cable or quick disconnect.

The Opti-Vue is optimized for a wide variety of applications, including closing edge monitoring of gates and industrial doors, object detection, assembly and packaging, material handling and general automation.

Pepperl+Fuchs is a world leader in the design, manufacture and application of high quality factory and process automation products and services. Pepperl+Fuchs pioneered the development of proximity sensors 45 years ago, and has set the standard for innovation and quality ever since.
