Telemecanique Sensors Virtu VM18 Series Ultrasonic Barrel-Style Proximity Sensor, M18 x 1, 50 → 500 mm

Cylindrical ultrasonic sensors for discrete proximity applications.

Want to keep a close eye on your equipment? This proximity sensor from Telemecanique Sensors gets the job done. It's used to accurately detect the presence and positioning of an object in an industrial system. A detection range between 50 and 500mm makes it suitable for small-scale and medium-scale applications. Durable PBT housing ensures it's resistant to wear and tear, so you can trust it to go the distance. Lightning-fast results come courtesy of a 15ms response time.

• Wide operating temperature between -30°C and +70°C to stand up to harsh environments
• IP67 rating indicates it's dust-tight and resistant to water up to a depth of 1m for 30 minutes
• Barrel body shape for easy handling

• Food and beverage processing
• Conveyor belts
• Robotics systems

It has streamlined dimensions of 18 (D) x 77.62 (L) x 18mm (W), so it's a space-saving solution for busy setups.

A sensor with a PNP output, like this one, supplies a positive load to your PLC, while an NPN output supplies a negative one.
