Turck: New Ultrasonic Sensor

Turck

July 24, 2018

Turck has expanded its ultrasonic sensor series with the RU50-Eco for price-conscious OEM projects. Because of the latest sonic transducer technology, a new ultrasonic sensor was developed, which does not make quality compromises despite its price.

The devices are in a plastic threaded housing made of highly durable liquid crystal polymer (LCP); the translucent end cap with an M12 Connector is made of Ultem plastic. Both plastics have proven resilient over long periods of use in other Turck products.

The RU50-Eco sensors are currently available with an PNP or NPN switching output. The customer can choose between a version with an M12 connector or with a cable. The translucent end cap also offers the benefit of seeing the output LED on the sensor clearly from almost every angle.
