Diffuse Sensors
with integral sender and receiver, built-in
protective circuitry and LED operating
status indicator
with cable:

Type SOEG-RT-M12-NS-K-L
with plug:

Type SOEG-RT-M12-NS-S-L
NPN-Output

Diffuse sensors are suitable for contactless data collection. The reflective
photoelectric sensor uses a pulsed infrared light source (8800 angstroms / 880
nm) to sense the presence of objects in its path.

with cable:

An infrared beam from the sensor transmitter is directed into the path of an
approaching object. When the object contacts the beam, the beam is reflected
back to the receiver in the sensor housing, triggering an electrical output to the
receiving device.

Type SOEG-RT-M12-PS-K-L

Nominal switching distance (Sn) varies with the reflectivity of the object.

with cable:

Type SOEG-S-Q30-K-2L
with gray plug and LED:

Type SOEG-S-Q30-S-2L
For contactless sensing of objects, the sender emits a pulsed infrared light in
the invisible spectrum (8800 angstroms / 880 nm). When an object moves
between the sender and receiver, the light beam is interrupted, and an
electrical signal is sent to a receiving device.

Receiver
with cable:

Type SOEG-E-Q30-PS-K-2L
with plug:

Type SOEG-E-Q30-PS-S-2L

When detecting translucent, permeable objects, transmitter beam strength can


be reduced by adjusting a potentiometer.
The sender can also accept a test input which simulates interruption of the
optical path.

Analog Pressure Sensors

To meet the increasing demand for hybrid control


solutions, Festo offers a wide selection of industry
proven interface components that merge the intelligence
and accuracy of electronics with the speed and power of
pneumatics. Festo electric-pneumatic (E-P) components
provide the control system interface with programmable
controllers and other electronic controls.

Sensors provide analog current or voltage output


directly proportional to the pressure input for precision
pressure monitoring and feedback applications.

The electric to pneumatic converter


converts electric signals to pneumatic

separate signals to be converted
independently of each other. The
converter corresponds (in function) to
four 3 way, 2 position spring return
solenoid valves.

With operating pressure applied at


P, when any of the four electrical
input signals becomes active, it
actuates the internal valve to
produce a pneumatic output at the
corresponding working port A.

Features:
High quality PEN-M5 is pressure sealed for
minimum leakage. Unit is polarity and short
circuit protected. Its power capacity (400

design, fine adjustment, and low hysteresis
ensure precise and reliable switching. The

Operation:
The pressure adjustment screw 1 varies
the spring tension applied to the bellows 2,
bringing them into the high frequency
scattering field of the initiator 3. Input
pressure 4 causes a change in scattering

Pressure Sensors
Characteristics
Applications:
HYSTERESIS

PEN-M5 is ideal for interfacing with


your PC or electronic controls for
applications requiring conversion of a
pneumatic pressure into an electrical
signal; use it as a:

1) Differential Pressure
For this function, a pressure ranging
from 28 in Hg to 120 psi / -0.95 to 8
bar may be connected to both connections P1 and P2. Desired differential pressure switching is set by spring
tension (pressure screw adjustment).

2) Vacuum Switch
A vacuum is connected to connection P2. Vacuum-switching pressure
may be set within a range of 6 to
24 in Hg / -0.20 to -0.80 bar. An
output is obtained when the preset
vacuum is attained.

3) Pressure Switch

Pressure Sensors
Adjustable P-E Pressure Switch
Pressure Switch (Adjustable)
Type PEV-1/4-B
With plug connector per DIN 43650.

Adjustable pneumatic signals are converted to electrical signals by the pressure


actuated switch.
When the pressure at connection X
reaches the preset shift point, a diaphragm
shifts an electrical switch. The shift point
is infinitely adjustable between 15 and
180 psi / 1 and 12 bar.

The pressure switch is preset with an upper shift


point of 90 psi 3% / 6 bar 3% and a lower shift
point of 72 psi 3% / 4.8 bar 3%.
The upper and lower shift points can be increased
by turning the adjusting screw clockwise (1 turn
corresponds to about 19.5 psi / 1.3 bar). Hysteresis
can be changed by turning the hex nut under the
cover cap. Hysteresis can be changed without
changing the upper shift point (see graph).
Clockwise rotation increases hysteresis and
counter-clockwise rotation decreases hysteresis.
The electrical switch may be used in normally
closed, normally open or transfer modes,
depending on the connection.

The microswitch can be used as a normally closed contact, normally open
contact, or transfer switch, depending on the connection.

Adjustable pneumatic signals are


converted into electrical signals by the
pressure switch.
If the pressure of the medium at
connection P reaches the switching point,
a piston switches over a microswitch. The
switching point is infinitely adjustable
between 15 and 180 psi (1 and 12 bar).

The pressure switch comes factory adjusted to a switching point of 90 psi / 6


bar 6%.
The switching point is adjusted by turning the adjusting screw. The switching
point can be read on the scale.
The pressure switch is free from materials that prevent lacquer from wetting.

These are standard values based on a


switching frequency of 60 switch cycles
per minute.
At high switching frequencies or when large inductances are switched, an RC
spark-suppression circuit must be provided for DC operation. Ideally, the circuit
should be arranged in parallel to the switch or load with R and C being
connected in series.
The following relationship should be observed for spark-suppression elements:
Capacitor C should be as large in F as load current l is in A and should be
rated for an operating voltage of at least 630 to 1000 V. Resistance R should
equal load resistance with a rating of approximately one-half to one watt.
