This elegant new design from sensor market leader ifm electronic combines stainless steel and plastics in a range of photoelectric sensors for universal use.

Using the latest technologies, the O5 range offers groundbreaking performance at attractive prices.

The extensive choice of models includes very precise background suppression up to a startling 1.8m, where the innovative setting couldn't be simpler to use, through to long-range versions for general applications where no setting is needed.

With state-of-the-art technology as well as outstanding performance and an attractive price/performance ratio this range embodies the ifm electronic policy of innovation.

High performance, ease of use and low prices from a leading manufacturer.

Precise background suppression versions feature a range of 1.4m, using a potentiometer, and 1.8m with an easy, intuitive pushbutton control.

The through-beam versions reach 20m, and the retroreflective 7m or more.

All devices are sealed to a minimum of IP67 and, as is now standard from ifm electronic, the EMC rating is to the highest generic requirements of EN61000, not the lower product standards.

Easy installation is ensured by a clever mounting concept, with special fixtures as well as an adapter plate for retrofitting.

The plug can be rotated by 270deg so that it can be aligned in any direction.

Mounting accessories for easy installation and adjustment or very robust protection, all at prices the user would struggle to achieve individually, complement the range.

ifm supplies one of the widest ranges of sensors for position and process control, complemented by a huge selection of connection possibilities, from connecting cable to AS-interface systems.

ifm is committed to working closely with its customers to develop products which precisely match their needs, and the company provides expert, readily accessible technical support to help users maximise the benefits they gain from ifm products.
