This combination of housing materials gives the sensor an IP69 rating and is suitable for use in autoclaves for 1 hr. When used with the proper mounting accessories the sensor can be used in hygienic applications. Integration into control systems is fast and flexible with either discrete outputs or with IO-Link communication.
