Photoelectric Sensors feature 4-in-1(TM) outputs.
Press Release Summary:
Tru-Vue(TM) series is available with 4-in-1(TM) outputs, which let one sensor operate in NPN NO, NPN NC, PNP NO, or PNP NC configurations. Designed for material handling market, sensors automatically determine output without external influence. They feature 360° viewable LED status indicators, 3 sensing modes, and 5 electrical connection options. Mounted via EZ-mount bracket, side-mount, or snout-mount options, sensor series has 29 mm housing depth.

Popular Photoelectric Sensors Now Feature 4-in-1(TM) Outputs
Now available with patented bracket for simplified mounting
TWINSBURG, OH - Pepperl+Fuchs' popular Tru-Vue(TM) series photoelectric sensors are now available with 4-in-1(TM) outputs. This enables a single sensor to operate in NPN normally open, NPN normally closed, PNP normally open, or PNP normally closed configurations. 4-in-1 simplifies sensor selection and stocking because one sensor model can now replace four sensor models. Installation is also faster because there are no extra steps needed to choose an output type, as the sensor automatically determines its output without external influence.
Designed specifically for the material handling market, the patented EZ-mount bracket facilitates quick mounting at a fraction of the cost of traditional metal brackets - no screws, nuts, washers, or other extras are required for this mount. Additionally, these compact sensors feature versatile side-mount or snout-mount options to satisfy various application needs, and highly visible 360° LED indicators for status indication in all directions and from poor vantage points.
Tru-Vue sensors are well suited for material handling, conveyor and packaging applications. These sensors can be surface mounted or mounted like 18mm cylindrical sensors by the threaded nose. Additionally their compact housing and small 29mm housing depth make them flexible enough to be mounted where conventional 18mm cylindrical sensors cannot. Enhanced status LEDs provide diagnostic functions beyond just power and output status.
Available sensing modes include diffused, polarized retro-reflective, and non-polarized retro-reflective. Five electrical connection options are available, including cabled, and both pig-tailed and integral connector types. Standard versions have sensitivity adjustments, but tamper proof models are also available to eliminate adjustments by unauthorized personnel.
