Tubular Optical Sensors Technical Description Available Models The expanded BOS 12M family represents a radical simplification in sensor technology for the most common applications. All sensors - diffuse, retroreflective or thru-beams are designed in the same housing as a typical inductive proximity sensor (M12x1). This means that Optical and Inductive proximity sensors are mechanically and electrically compatible! As far as installation is concerned, there is no simpler concept for sensors than a drilled hole. And that is all the sensors from the BOS 12M compact series require for installation. This simplifies the design of system or machine, making converting sensor types easier, and reduces inventory through multiple usage of accessories. This in turn means standardization and simplification of your sensor needs. The BOS 12M series in their rugged metal housing is fully potted and provides IP 67 protection. Diffuse with fixed sensing distances (100 mm and 200 mm) and manufactured to tight tolerances, ideal for rapid and uncomplicated assembly. The use of a red light also makes their alignment easier. The diffuse model with 400 mm range is adjustable. This makes the sensor more flexible and universal. Retroreflective sensors with polarizing filter, adjustable range (up to 1.5 m) and red light. makes it easy to align. Features - Supply voltage 10...30 V DC, polarity reverse protected - Output 200 mA, short protected - Output status display - IP 67 housing - Standard metal housing (M12x1) - Red and infrared light versions - Fixed and adjustable sensitivity - PNP or NPN, light-on or dark-on - Cable and connector versions (M12 connector) BOS 12M Applications - Anywhere M18x1 is too large - With a simple M12 bore hole for mounting, the sensor can be used wherever inductive proximity switches are in use - General automation tasks - Assembly and handling - Machine building - Packaging machinery - Robots - Machine tools 2 Thru-beam sensors with 5 m range, red light and adjustable sensitivity. The output is complimentary, allowing function monitoring of the sensor system.
