Minneapolis, Minn. - TURCK introduces a new ultrasonic sensor in a compact Q12 style housing that achieves a 40 cm sensing range with an incredibly small 2.5 cm blind zone. The small profile of the sensor allows it to be mounted in narrow spaces, like those found in packaging applications.

The sensor is available with retro-reflective and diffuse operation modes, and PNP and frequency outputs. “When compared to TURCK’s other ultrasonic sensors, the Q12 style offers a competitive price without sacrificing quality,” says Melissa Schumann, product specialist with TURCK’s sensors division. The Q12 ultrasonic sensor is IP 67 rated for environmental protection.
