The OG-Cube photoelectric sensor line now includes a family of thru-beam sensors with a 20 meter range. The compact sensors offer high optical performance in a robust, metal housing. The sensors offer reliable position detection in industrial applications such as conveying, packaging, material handling and automotive manufacturing.

More durable than plastic housings
The OG-Cube’s robust metal housing withstands harsh industrial conditions and is more durable than traditional plastic housings. The sensor features metal M18 mounting threads that will not strip during mounting – a common challenge with plastic threads. The sensor’s standard M12 connector resists high torquing and provides quick wiring.

Long sensing range, bright LEDs
Bright LEDs indicate operating status (power and output) making troubleshooting in applications fast and simple. The sensors are designed to provide long sensing ranges that increase the distance between the sensor and the target, preventing physical damage from fast-moving targets.

Mounting brackets enable easy installation
For quick installation, ifm has designed two bracket systems for the OG-Cube. With a full 360° adjustment, the mounting bracket kits enable both products to rotate in multiple directions to fit an application. Its flexibility simplifies alignment and eliminates the need to manufacture brackets in-house.
