Oil & Chemical Resistant

PF Series

  • Embedded amplifier sensor with body and cable covered with fluoroplastic (PFA) housing and tube for enhanced resistance to oils and chemicals.
    • Excellent resistance to oils and chemicals, capable of immersed use.
    • Easy-to-use embedded amplifier sensor
    • Long detecting distance (through beam: 3 m; diffuse reflective: 300mm)
    • High-speed response of 0.35 ms
    • Optional external sensitivity adjustment employed

PF-R03S

  • The output transistor turns off when load short circuit or overload occurs. Check the load and turn the power back on.

Through beam type transmitter

Through beam type receiver and diffuse reflective type

*Cut this lead off when not using the volume unit (model PF-V2) to leave it open and prevent it from touching other leads.
