Photoelectric and Inductive Sensors for Food Processing Applications

Baumer has released a series of photoelectric and inductive sensors that will be used to maintain hygiene in the food and beverage segment.

Baumer's photoelectric and inductive sensors

They are encased in a plane, non-groove, V4A stainless steel housing and comply with all relevant industry regulations.

Their reflectors and cables also comply with EHEDG and Ecolab regulations and the materials are FDA compliant. They can detect position in the areas of food production and processing. The wash-down version ensures that the system enjoys a long life with consistent performance. The sensors are put through changing patterns and IP68 and IP69K testing to ensure high process reliability and reduce maintenance effort.

The photoelectric FNDH 14 SmartReflect sensor can be installed in the prevailing housing and used as a reflector to reduce installation time and costs. On the other hand, the inductive sensors operate in temperatures ranging from -40 to 100°C making them suitable in food processing where food is often frozen and then heated to high temperatures.
