nano M12 ultrasonic sensor-3

Description With a housing length of only 55 mm nano sensors with switching outputs are the smallest ultrasonic sensors inside the M12 threaded sleeve on the market. Analogue sensors are 60 mm long. nano has a 4-pole M12 circular plug and are taught via pin 2. For the nano sensor family there are 2 output stages and 2 measuring ranges available: 1 Push-Pull-switching output, in pnp or npn circuitry with IO-Link interface The temperature compensation of the sensors profits from a significant improvement. The sensors reach their operating point only 45 seconds after activation of the operating voltage....
