Leuze electronic Series 53 and 55 washable optoelectronic sensors

20 September, 2010 | Supplied by: Balluff Pty Ltd

The Wash-Down and Hygiene design sensor series from Leuze electronic are designed for frequent and intensive cleaning and disinfection cycles.


Leuze electronic HRTU 412 and HRTU 420 ultrasonic scanning scanners

20 September, 2010 | Supplied by: Balluff Pty Ltd

The HRTU 412 and HRTU 420 from Leuze electronic are retro-reflective ultrasonic scanners with extremely short response times. They have three different sound lobes with narrow, normal and wide opening angles. The narrow sound lobes in particular permit the detection of the smallest of objects or the detection through small apertures at short response times of 10 ms. The switching behaviour is largely independent of the surface of the sound-reflecting materials.


Leuze electronic KRT 3B series contrast scanners

20 September, 2010 | Supplied by: Balluff Pty Ltd

The KRT 3B series contrast scanners from Leuze electronic distinguish between greyscale values, enabling them to detect minimal contrast. As a result, a check can be performed for the presence of text or imprints or so-called marks detected. All three transmitter models - RGB light, white light and laser light - are available in a small construction. In addition to the standard design, the sensors are also available in stainless steel, in the Wash-Down and Hygiene designs.
