Mouser: IDEC SA1N Subminiature Photoelectric Sensors

IDEC SA1N Subminiature Photoelectric Sensors are compact sensors with high accuracy and performance. These IDEC sensors with a built-in amplifier are versatile and reliable enough for a wide variety of industrial automation applications. SA1N sensors can quickly detect the presence or absence of objects from up to 50mm away (30mm for the block type).

The SA1N’s subminiature size and small sensor head make it easier to install. Both versions are <30mm long. The built-in amplifier offers further space savings. Compared to traditional fiber optic sensor cables, the SA1N’s cable has a higher wire bend radius and tolerance. Users can customize the installation and cable routing without worrying about wire breaks.

The sensitivity control dial is easy to find on each version of the SA1N. Users can adjust the sensitivity after installing the sensor. The fiber type’s stainless-steel housing and plastic encapsulation have an IP67 rating for water and dust resistance. This protection ensures that sensor interference is significantly reduced.

Features

  • 3mm to 50mm sensing range
  • Space-saving subminiature size
  • Built-in amplifier
  • Sensitivity adjustment on the sensor
  • Stainless steel fiber type
  • IP67 fiber type
  • IP64 square type

Applications

  • Sensing
    • Parts feeders
    • Medical equipment
    • Bottle cap conveyor lines
  • Positioning/counting
    • Counting components on conveyor lines
    • Positioning PCB conveyor lines
    • Detecting missing electronic components

ADVANCED Motion Controls Takes Servo Drives to New Heights (and Depths) with FlexPro Extended Environment Product Line

Advanced Motion Controls is proud to announce the addition of six new CANopen servo drives with Extended Environment capabilities to their FlexPro line. These new drives join AMC’s existing EtherCAT Extended Environment FlexPro drives, making the FlexPro line the go-to solution for motion control applications in harsh environments.

Many motion control applications take place in conditions that are less than ideal, such as extreme temperatures, high and low pressures, shocks and vibrations, and contamination. Electronics, including servo drives, can malfunction or sustain permanent damage in these conditions.
