    VSMQ Series

    VSM sensor

    High performance, heavy-duty metal photoelectric sensor with well focused, narrow beam and smooth, stainless steel housing.

    • Tough – 300 series stainless steel body that will resist a wide variety of chemicals
    • Tiny – complete sensor in 7 x 5.5 mm flat pack housing
    • High performance – advanced optical design for very repeatable sensing range
    • Side Looker beam – well focused, side looking beam allows the entire sensor to be recessed into the fixture
    • Varied range - 20, 50 and 90 mm diffuse mode
