Sensors & Transducers
Photo-electric eyes have always needed perfect working conditions, but in the workplace, there is no such thing.
Steam, water, light and dirt interfere with most photo-electric eyes, but never with a Telco Sensor. A new addition to the Telco Sensors range is an adjustable proximity sensor with a range up to 5 metres.
For the accuracy and reliability you need, try the Telco line of photo-electric eyes. The company’s worldwide reputation is built on solving the most difficult photo-electric eye problems.
Telco Sensors is a Danish designer, developer and manufacturer of a wide selection of photoelectric sensors, photoelectric amplifiers, light curtains and optical fork sensors. The products can be used in a wide range of industries where they are employed for detecting, positioning, measuring, counting and sorting. These industries include sawmill and forestry, packaging, material handling, material processing, factory automation and controls, agriculture, fisheries, food processing, pharmaceuticals and mining.

Cutting-edge sensor technology
Endress+Hauser South Africa
Sensors & Transducers
The advantage of Endress+Hauser’s Memosens technology is that digitised measured values and sensor information are transmitted via a non-contact connection from the sensor to the cable, and as a digital signal to the transmitter.

PDS implementation on mines
Sensors & Transducers
Level 9 vehicle intervention for collision avoidance has been mandatory on South African mines since 2022, yet the effective roll-out of proximity detection systems remains slower than expected. This is not due to the technical limitations of integration but to operational readiness on site.
