Sensor Heads
A sensor head module is available for every sensing situation. Sensor heads bolt
directly onto the power block, and are fully gasketed for protection against
environmental elements. The D.A.T.A. self-diagnostic feature is standard on all OMNI-
BEAM sensor heads (except emitters and model OSBFAC). Select from most sensing
modes, with infrared or visible red, green or blue sensing beams available.
Figure 2. OMNI-BEAM sensor heads are
available for most sensing
modes, including fiber optic
models.
