FAQ

Question?

What is the advantage of a flush-mountable sensor like the BES056N?

Answer:

A flush-mountable sensor can be installed so its sensing face is level with the surrounding metal mounting surface. This provides mechanical protection and is ideal for applications where space is tight or the sensor could be easily damaged.

Question?

What does PNP ‘Normally Open’ (NO) mean for this sensor’s output?

Answer:

PNP means the sensor is a ‘sourcing’ type, switching the positive (V+) voltage to the output when an object is detected. ‘Normally Open’ (NO) means the output is OFF when no object is in the sensing range and turns ON when an object is detected. This is the most common configuration for industrial sensors.

Question?

Is the M8 connector on this sensor a standard type?

Answer:

Yes, the BES056N uses a standard M8x1, 3-pin male connector, which is widely used in industrial automation. This allows for quick and secure connection using standard M8 female cordsets, simplifying installation and replacement.
