Cylindrical photoelectric switches from Sick cover the complete application range of modern photoelectric switches:

Universal standard photoelectric switches V18;
Shortline for space-saving, innovative installation solutions MH15, load-optimized series for food & beverage V18V & MH15V;
Laser photoelectric switches V18L for applications without laser restrictions thanks to class 1 V18L and photoelectric switches for fiber-optic cables VLL18;
All of that with a compatible mounting technique M18.

The photoelectric switch series V12-2 with cylindrical from Sick housing technology reduces housing diameters even more with M12 mounting.
Cylindrical photoelectric switches are the ideal, installation-compatible additions to other SICK sensor series such as inductive, capacitive and magnetic sensors.
