Sick V18V Series Proximity Sensor Switch Reflective photoelectric Sensor Industry Proximity Switch
Applications
The V18V has a chemical and pressure cleaning resistant housing for wash down applications and includes patented touch (smart) teach for foolproof operation. These sensors are field-tested and are able to stand up to harsh environments. The sensors offer ease of use in wash down areas due to corrosion resistant and food grade materials, a wide sensing range and an extended temperature range.
The V18V sensors are certified by ECOLAB and JohnsonDiversey. Their IP 69K enclosure rating makes them ideal for applications in the food and beverage, pharmaceutical and packaging industries.
