The Facts Behind the PX's Performance
IP68g/IP69K [NEMA Type 4x/6P/13] rated sensor head
FACT 1
Backfilled structure
The case is completely backfilled under vacuum with transparent epoxy resin. This ensures maximum adhesion with the cable and lens, and prohibits liquid entry.
FACT 2
Stainless-steel housing is approx. 1.9 mm* thick
The thick walls of the sensor permit higher levels of installation
torque, preventing release due to vibration or shock.
* PX-H72(G) only. The cases of other models are 1.5 mm in
thickness.
FACT 3
Glass lens
The tough, scratch-resistant, optical glass lens can be used in the harshest environments.
FACT 4
Ultra high-intensity LED
Incredible power by combining infrared or 4-element red LED with an optical quality glass lens.
FACT 5
Plastic inner sleeve
The plastic inner sleeve has low water absorbing properties and excellent oil-resistance. It prevents water or oil from penetrating the case.
ENCLOSURE RATING IP68g
The protective structure complies with JEM (Japan Electrical Manufacturers' Association) standards. IP68g does not ensure safe usage when a product is soaked in oil.
The IP tests are conducted under a specified conditions within a specified time and do not ensure the performance for extended periods of time.
NEMA TYPE REFERENCE
4X
Indoor or outdoor use primarily to provide a degree of protection against corrosion,windblown dust and rain,splashing water,hose-directed water and damage from external ice formation.
6P
Indoor or outdoor use primarily to provide a degree of protection against hose-directed water,the entry of water during prolonged submersion at a limited depth and damage from external ice formations.
13
Indoor use primarily to provide a degree of protection against dust,spraying of water,oil,and noncorrosive coolant.
