Compact sensor design for simple and efficient integration

The photoelectric sensors are housed in a robust, compact cubic housing with a standardized hole spacing. This enables quick and uncomplicated installation. The M3 internal thread ensures flexible mounting options and facilitates adaptations to your individual requirements.

A visible red light spot simplifies alignment of the sensor, while infrared versions work reliably even under difficult environmental conditions. Various connection options, such as M8 connectors with 4-pin or 3-pin, 2 m cable and M8 pigtail variants, offer technical flexibility, ensure seamless integration into existing systems and reduce downtime. The BOS sensors are equipped with a NO/NC switch on the back for easy configuration.

Clearly visible LEDs provide you with immediate visual feedback: green for operating status and stability indication and yellow for switching status. Thanks to these 360°-visible LEDs, you can keep an eye on the status of your sensors at all times, quickly identify errors and increase system availability. The robust plastic housing with protection class IP67 ensures a long service life.

Save time and resources with sustainable packaging

We have continued the proven and popular packaging of the inductive BES Entry Line portfolio. Our environmentally friendly multiple packaging with 20 units saves time and reduces packaging waste. The individual packaging of our products is made from recycled plastic. In addition, you can also order reflectors in practical multi-packs.
