Photoelectric Sensors with Condition Monitoring from Balluff

Balluff Photoelectric Sensors with Condition Monitoring
SAMS (Smart Automation and Monitoring System) stands for Balluff's comprehensive automation philosophy. On the one hand, the Smart Automation and Monitoring System comprises a large number of additional functions and additional information for each individual component while, on the other hand, it is characterized by its uniform and standardized operating, configuration
and diagnosis concept.

Part of this system is the new BOS R254K photoelectric sensor for reliable detection of objects like bottles, containers and pallets in the food industry and in the packaging sector. Designed for demanding applications, it is ideal wherever cleaning involves aggressive media and high pressure. Resistant to cleaning agents (Ecolab), it has passed the cleaning cycle according to the high Balluff standard. IP67 and IP69K ratings enable use in critical applications with harsh ambient conditions, especially in factory automation.

Its numerous additional functions provide for comprehensive condition monitoring. The sensor is self-monitoring while also providing helpful diagnostic data. You also gain valuable information related to the installed location including the application itself. All in all, the sensor ensures greater equipment uptime.
