These new, low-cost sensors offer additional features and benefits that reduce material and labor costs.
The industry-proven ELF family has been updated to its second generation. These updates include minor modernizations to the sensors’ housings, along with enhancements to performance, enclosure rating, and sensing ranges. The Z Sensor has a clear housing that enables 360° of visible indication of the sensor’s status LEDs.
The ELF and Z are both assembled in the United States, which allows SICK to customize the sensors (cable cut to length, addition of different connectors, brackets, customer-specific cable label, bulk pack, kit with reflector/bracket, etc.), reducing material and labor costs, and providing greater flexibility.
The next generation ELF and Z series offer flexible mounting options. Whether you choose a standard front mount or a spherical ball mount, when combined with a swivel bracket, these low-cost sensors are infinitely adjustable. This flexibility makes them suitable for almost any presence detection application.
