CGY Cylindrical Photoelectric Sensors

Description

Cylindrical Sensor Selection

The CGY range offers three optical arrangements in threaded cylindrical housings. Choose diffuse sensing for reflection from the target, retro-reflective sensing with a separate reflector, or a through-beam emitter and receiver pair. The standard infrared DC selection includes M12, M18 and M30 models with NPN or PNP outputs, IP65 protection and 2m cables.
